Design details
Why is this jacket so warm?
The inside of the fleece is brushed, a process known to retain heat. The principle is simple: the component’s knit is structured to give extra volume in order to trap air, which is naturally insulating. It is exactly the same principle as for animal fur or feathers.
The two layers of fleece make this product thick and warm, while leaving you free to move.
Focus on the polar component
The fleece fabric, made of synthetic fibres, aims to mimic the properties of wool: warmth, thermal insulation, while being lighter. It is soft, comfortable, dries quickly and lets your skin breathe.
What to wear when sailing
To dress properly in winter, whatever your activity, we advise using the 3-layer principle:
- Base layer: A technical base layer allows moisture transfer to keep skin dry.
- Mid layer: The mid layer (fleece, pullover) provides warmth as well as moisture transfer.
- Outer layer: A jacket protects you from the elements: wind and rain.
The layers must be breathable to wick away moisture
