Marmot Women's Windstopper Jacket

Windstopper® What Is It? Windstopper® fabrics offer windproof and breathability, combining the comfort of a soft mid-layer and the water resistance of a shell in one garment. Our Windstopper® collection keeps you comfortable while providing the freedom of movement you need for enhanced performance in a wide range of activities and weather conditions. How Does It Work? With its 3-layer construction, the Windstopper® membrane is bonded between a high performance fabric on one side and a quick-drying polyester fleece on the other. The Durable Water-Repellent (DWR) finish offers additional weather protection. Windstopper® protects your body's warmth from the chilling effects of wind and weather and prevents overheating and perspiration build-up by allowing moisture vapor to easily escape. The unique Windstopper® membrane totally stops wind from penetrating the fabric while allowing moisture to release unhindered for 2x more breathability than comparable windproof products. What Are the Benefits? Windstopper® performs well in outdoor activities, such as hiking, backpacking, cycling, hunting, mountain sports, skiing, snowboarding, and trekking where weather conditions might include strong winds, light snow, and rain. It retains heat not moisture and is 2 1/2 times warmer in 30 mph wind than traditional fleece with no loss to breathability. And because it's 'easy care', you can wash it in your machine.
