Voss Jacket - Women's

DWR, or Durable Water Repellent treatment, is a special coating applied to fabrics that makes them water-resistant. This means that when it rains lightly, water will bead up and roll off the fabric instead of soaking in. This feature helps keep you dry and comfortable during unexpected weather, making it ideal for outdoor activities like hiking or camping.

Sealed seams are created by applying a special tape or adhesive over the stitched areas of the fabric. This prevents water from leaking through the seams, which are often the weakest points in waterproof clothing. By ensuring that the seams are sealed, you can trust that your jacket will keep you dry even in heavy rain.

A packable design allows you to fold or roll the jacket into a compact size, often into its own pocket or a designated pouch. This feature is incredibly convenient for outdoor activities, as it makes the jacket easy to carry and store when you don’t need it. You can easily stash it in your backpack without taking up much space.

Underarm vents are openings or zippers located in the underarm area of a jacket that can be opened to allow air to flow in and out. This feature helps regulate your body temperature by releasing excess heat, making the jacket more comfortable to wear during strenuous activities like hiking or climbing, where you might get warm.

Articulated sleeves are designed with a shape that follows the natural bend of your elbows, allowing for better movement and flexibility. This design is particularly beneficial during activities that require a lot of arm movement, such as climbing or reaching, as it provides greater comfort and reduces restriction.

Absolutely! Jackets with DWR treatment, sealed seams, and underarm vents are designed to perform well in various weather conditions. They keep you dry in light rain, allow for breathability during physical activities, and provide comfort with articulated sleeves. This versatility makes them suitable for everything from casual outings to intense outdoor adventures.
