When cold, wet weather arrives, the Crewcat jacket delivers practical protection. Durable two-layer micro ripstop, critically taped seams, and a water-repellent finish help keep out rain and wind while remaining breathable. Tech Down and a heat-sealed lining provide extra warmth. Its hood is detachable and adjustable, and articulated sleeves adapt easily. Side pockets with concealed zippers and an inner pocket offer secure storage.
Waterproof
Waterproof jackets have a laminated or coated outer layer and taped seams. This combination prevents water from entering even in heavy rainfall.
Water resistance up to: 10,000 mm
This means the material only allows water through under a pressure equivalent to 10,000 mm of water, or 10 metres. The higher this number, the better the jacket withstands rain exposure. Also check breathability for extra comfort.
The outer fabric fully protects against water and snow
Windproof
Windproof jackets are designed to keep cold air out completely. Thanks to a special layer in the material, warm air remains close to the body. This prevents the wind chill effect, where the perceived temperature feels much lower than the actual temperature. Ideal for open plains, long walks, or a crisp autumn day.
The outer fabric blocks wind for extra comfort and warmth
Breathable
Breathable materials wick away body heat and sweat. Especially during physical activity, this prevents overheating or a clammy feeling. The higher the breathability, the better the jacket performs during intense activities.
Breathability (MVP): up to 10,000
Breathability is measured as MVP: Moisture Vapour Permeability. This value indicates how many grams of water vapour per square metre of fabric can escape in 24 hours. The higher the MVP, the better the jacket’s breathability.
The outer fabric and/or insulation allows heat and moisture to escape efficiently
Cold weather conditions
In cold conditions insulation is essential. This jacket offers warmth through down filling, synthetic insulation, or a combination of both. Windproof materials and a comfortable lining keep cold out and warmth in. This way you’re protected against winter conditions without sacrificing mobility.
Designed for cold conditions
Taped seams
Seams are often weak spots where water can penetrate. In taped seams, these seams are sealed on the inside with special tape or adhesive, making the jacket more resistant to rain.
Important for long-lasting protection in wet weather.
The seams are sealed on the inside, ensuring a waterproof construction.
Tech Down
Tech Down is an innovative insulation made of loose polyester fibres that trap air and create a down‑like effect. It’s lighter than traditional down, retains its insulating properties even when wet, and dries more quickly. Additionally, it’s often more animal‑friendly and easier to wash. A smart choice for everyday use.
Synthetic insulation as an alternative to down
Water repellent
Water‑repellent jackets are treated with a special coating that causes droplets to roll off the surface. This protects against light rain or snow, but is not fully waterproof. Over time the coating can wear off; retreatment is possible.
