Printed Jacket Men's Cyclone VI Jacket Men's Wind Revolution Hoodie JacketMen's softshell jackets are true multi-taskers: they are breathable, wind and water-repellent, fast drying, moisture-wicking, highly stretchy, and what's more, light and compact - a must-have for your outdoor activities all year round!
Men's softshell jackets for the summer
Thin, light softshell jackets are great for hiking, running, cycling, or other outdoor activities in the summer. They are an ideal "mid layer", forming the middle layer between a first direct-on-skin (e.g., a technical shirt) layer and the top layer (e.g., a Goretex jacket). Men's softshell jackets keep the wind out and the upper body warm when a chilly breeze blows, and you start to sweat. Thanks to the breathable material, a softshell jacket does not get as clammy as a hardshell jacket. This makes softshell jackets amazingly comfortable to wear, especially for sweaty activities.
Men's lightweight softshell jackets
Ultra-lightweight softshell jackets are a bonus when you need to reduce your load and pack size. The more lightweight softshell jacket is ideal for activities where you travel with a daypack or small backpack and are mindful of every ounce - trail running or alpine climbing are perfect examples.
Softshell jackets for men with detachable sleeves
The sleeves of some men's softshell jackets are detachable so that they double up as a vest. This saves you from having to buy a windproof gilet. These are very comfortable when the outside temperature is too warm for a jacket, yet there's a chilly drought. A sleeveless softshell jacket is an ideal companion for cycling, hiking, or outdoor activities.
Windproof, water-repellent, breathable all in one: Really?
Men's softshell jackets are suitable for all outdoor activities because of their versatility. In a nutshell, a softshell jacket is more breathable than a hardshell jacket but not waterproof. Softshell materials are divided into three-layer and two-layer, and double fabrics. Three-layer softshell materials are most comparable to hardshells regarding their waterproof advantages. Other softshell materials are usually water-repellent, not waterproof. They do an excellent job of keeping moisture away from the body in a short shower, drizzle, or mist dampness. However, they are inferior to hardshell jackets for activities in wet or colder conditions. Compared to fleece jackets, men's Windstopper softshell jackets have the decisive edge that they don't let the wind through, and you won't cool down as fast.
For the autumn and winter months
Lined men's softshell jackets offer protection against moisture and wind and a high level of insulation in the colder times of the year, such as autumn and winter. A fleece lining is pleasantly soft against the skin without trapping moisture and heat. Padding made from synthetic textile (e.g., Primaloft) also provides extra warmth for your thermal softshell jacket. Reflective elements increase visibility in cloudy winter weather or when running at dusk. A high (stand-up) collar and an extended back are incredibly agreeable in cold temperatures.
With or without a hood?
A softshell jacket with a hood is your saviour in intense wind chill or rainy weather. The hood should be adjustable; depending on the activity you plan to wear it for, it should also fit over a helmet. Men's softshell jackets without a hood are suitable for everyday wear and outdoor activities where you won't be exposed to the weather for long or want to save on weight.
