Men's Sports jackets

Ski jackets

Ski jackets usually have a windproof front panel and a non-windproof, highly breathable back panel. These jackets are best suited to track skiing; for backcountry touring, it’s better to have a jacket that blocks wind from every direction.

Running jackets and cycling jackets

Lightweight wind jackets and vests made for running and cycling pack down into an extremely small space – it’s easy to tuck one into a cycling jersey pocket just in case. On a run, a wind jacket keeps you more comfortable if it starts to rain too. After all, it’s better to be caught in the rain wearing at least a windproof jacket than just a t-shirt. It’s worth trying a wind jacket like this on a hike as well. In a situation where a shell jacket runs too hot but a shirt on its own isn’t warm enough, a 100-gram wind jacket can be the best choice.

Cycling jackets are cut to suit your riding position. The more sporty the intended use, the more the cut is shaped for a stretched-out posture. In the most sporty jackets, a tight fit minimises flapping fabric, while more relaxed models also work for everyday use when needed. Active cyclists tend to avoid waterproof membranes, because they always breathe worse than regular cycling fabrics. Still, there are situations where it’s better to keep cold rain off your skin. On long rides, cold water running down your skin drains your energy, and getting chilled also weakens your concentration and coordination.
