The women's softshell jacket: ideal when the weather is mild

When the weather is mild and the cold and rain disappear, wearing a fleece and a watch jacket quickly becomes heavy and cumbersome. But how can you do without one of these items without losing too much warmth or fearing the wind? The answer lies in one word: the softshell jacket. Used in many sporting activities such as hiking, sailing, skiing, or other more static activities, the versatility of the softshell jacket allows it to be used in everyday life or for outdoor work.

Why choose a women's softshell jacket?

The softshell jacket provides lightweight, comfortable protection that can be substituted for the traditional two layers when the weather permits. In fact, it is ideal to wear 2 other layers underneath the first breathable layer as follows: a protection against bad weather providing warmth over time, like a fleece, and a final waterproof layer to protect against rain, spray and wind, like a watch jacket.

A softshell jacket is a product that meets both of these needs in a single garment with two layers. With an outer fabric (usually polyester) that is slightly less waterproof than a watch jacket, the softshell jacket offers increased lightness and incredible freedom of movement. The interior usually offers a fleece lining for a good barrier against bad weather. Whether it's made of natural down, synthetic down, or other fibers, the main feature of a softshell jacket is protection from wind, cold, and water. Most softshell jackets are simply made of water repellent fabric and are not intended to spend long hours in the rain. It can be even more useful by replacing your fleece under your watch jacket, acting as an extra two layers.
