THE TOP 7 MAKE-OR-
BREAK FEATURES THAT
WATERPROOF JACKETS
SIMPLY MUST HAVE.
WARM FLEECE LINING & WINDBREAKING.
Waterproof jackets tend to be just that - waterproof only. The trouble comes when cold rain makes you shiver on the inside - even though you are dry on the outside. It's crucial to block the wind to retain core body temperature. That's why BÆRSkin™ Waterproof Softshell Jackets are lined with a layer BÆRSkin™ Fleece on the inside to block wind and regulate heat. Feel your BÆRSkin Waterproof Softshell Jacket beat the rain while keeping you warm and ready to the core, wherever you go.
WATERPROOF WITH TAPED & SEALED SEAMS.
One of the most important features of a waterproof jacket are sealed and taped seams and stitching. A poor-quality waterproof jacket may have a water-repellent coating - but you will need to check to make sure that the stitching is taped and sealed inside. The stitches in a rain jacket punch hundreds of tiny holes where the needle penetrates the jacket - which allows water droplets inside the jacket. That's why the BÆRSkin Waterproof Softshell Jacket is fully taped and sealed not once, but twice! The first seal covers the outer stitching, and the second seal covers the inner stitching that attaches the warm fleece lining to the outer waterproof layer.
ARMPIT ZIPS FOR BREATHABILITY.
You’ve probably experienced that dreaded “wetting out” with rain jackets—where sweat gets trapped beneath your waterproof layer, turning you into a sticky, soggy mess. That’s because waterproof fabrics block rain, but they can’t breathe, causing sweat to build up. When your sweat combines with a soaked outer layer, your jacket starts clinging to you like wet plastic. That's why the BÆRSkin Waterproof Softshell Jacket comes with "Pit Zips" that allow you to dump extra heat that builds up inside when it's raining.
AT LEAST 8 WATERPROOF POCKETS.
Having enough pockets is important for pick-pocket-proof storage - but it means nothing unless these pockets are sealed with silicone to stay waterproof too. That's why each of the pockets on the BÆRSkin Waterproof Softshell Jacket is sealed with silicone to keep your valuables dry, while maintaining a muscular style fit that isn't too baggy or bulky. 2x Front Zip Pockets: Ideal for stashing essentials like your keys, wallet, or snacks. 2x Sleeve Pockets: Strategically placed for swift access to vital gear. 1x Chest Pocket: With a soft interior, it's perfect for safeguarding cellphones from scratches. 3x Secret Interior Zip Pockets: Discreetly keep valuable items like a passport, or spare cash secure.
ADJUSTABLE WINDSULATION DESIGN.
When it comes to extreme weather, you need all the protection you can get. That's why the BÆRSkin Waterproof Softshell Jacket features and adjustable waist, with two toggles on either side to block wind from below. Need more warmth? You can also cinch up the hood with two adjustable toggles to keep your eyes out of the storm - with two wrist toggles that allow you to seal out wind and cold on your arms. Plus, with a full-length storm flap behind the waterproof silicone front zip - there's simply no way for the wind or rain to get inside.
BROAD, MUSCULAR FIT.
"Bad fitting, bulky, and baggy " - most regular waterproof jackets make you look like you're wearing a plastic bag. The BÆRSkin Waterproof Softshell Jacket was designed for a muscular silhouette that broadens the shoulders and back. The stomach area is smooth and flat to create a tapered effect that slims the belly and the waist for an incredible fit. The waist has two toggles on either side to customise your fit to your liking. That way, every BÆRSkin Waterproof Softshell Jacket is uniquely tailored to make you (literally) stand out.
DWR (DURABLE WATER REPELLENT) COATING TO LAST FOR YEARS.
Most waterproof rain jackets start off strong, but after a few encounters with rain, their water resistance fades like an old memory. That’s not the case with the BÆRSkin Waterproof Softshell Jacket, thanks to its DWR BÆR-Tex Water Repellent coating that keeps water rolling off like it just got waxed. Designed to last for years, this coating ensures your jacket stays reliably waterproof even after countless adventures. No matter how many storms you face, your BÆRSkin Waterproof Softshell Jacket will keep shedding rain like it’s brand new.
