Downrigger Gore-Tex Jacket - Men's

GORE-TEX is a high-performance fabric that is both waterproof and breathable. It features a special membrane that allows sweat to escape while keeping water out. This is crucial for outdoor activities like fly fishing, as it ensures you stay dry and comfortable even in wet conditions.

The waterproof rating indicates how much water pressure the fabric can withstand before leaking. A rating of 28,000mm means the jacket can handle heavy rain without letting water in. The higher the rating, the better the protection against harsh weather, making it essential for outdoor adventures.

Nylon taffeta is a lightweight and smooth fabric often used as a lining in jackets. It feels comfortable against the skin and effectively wicks away moisture, helping to keep you dry. This makes it an excellent choice for active pursuits where comfort and moisture management are key.

Adjustable hook-and-loop cuffs allow you to customize the fit of your jacket sleeves. By tightening or loosening the cuffs, you can prevent wind and water from entering, ensuring better protection from the elements. This feature is particularly useful during unpredictable weather conditions.

A regular fit means the jacket is designed to provide a comfortable silhouette that isn’t too tight or too loose. This fit allows for easy layering underneath, which is important for activities like fishing where you may need extra warmth or comfort. It ensures you can move freely while staying protected.

Absolutely! A regular fit is designed to accommodate layering, making it perfect for outdoor activities. You can easily wear thermal shirts or fleeces underneath without feeling restricted, allowing you to adjust your clothing based on the weather and your activity level.
