FAQs

1. What are the features of softshell jackets?

A softshell jacket provides versatile protection by balancing weather resistance with breathability. Its primary advantage is exceptional comfort during active wear, offering wind resistance, water repellence, and stretch for unrestricted movement. Softshells excel as mid-layers in changing conditions and standalone jackets during moderate weather.

2. Is soft shell fabric waterproof?

Softshell fabric is typically water-resistant rather than fully waterproof. It features a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating that sheds light rain and snow, but won't provide complete protection during sustained heavy downpours. This moderate water resistance is intentionally balanced with enhanced breathability for active comfort.

3. Are softshell jackets fit for skiing?

Softshell jackets work excellently for spring skiing or as mid-layers in winter skiing setups. They're ideal for high-output activities like cross-country skiing where breathability is crucial. For resort downhill skiing in colder or wetter conditions, softshells work best as part of a layering system beneath a waterproof hardshell.

4. Is soft shell good for summer?

Lightweight softshell jackets are excellent for cool summer evenings, coastal conditions, and higher elevations during summer. Their wind resistance protects against summer breezes while their breathability prevents overheating. Look for softshells with minimal insulation and maximum ventilation features for optimal summer performance.

5. How to choose a softshell jacket?

Consider your primary activities and typical weather conditions first. Assess water resistance needs (from light showers to frequent rain), weight preferences (from ultralight to more substantial), and desired features (hood type, pocket configuration, adjustment options). Finally, ensure proper fit—allowing room for light layers underneath while maintaining a streamlined profile.
