Softshell Jacket Hood Stratus S. L YT-79562 YATO

The YATO Softshell Jacket with Hood (model code YT-79562) is designed for those seeking a perfect balance between warmth and breathability. Ideal for outdoor activities and work environments, this jacket offers excellent protection against moderate rain and wind.

This softshell jacket features three pockets fastened with waterproof zippers and a detachable hood. The modern three-layer lightweight polyester fabric, combined with spandex, incorporates a unique micro-structure that blocks water penetration while allowing sweat to evaporate as vapor. The jacket effectively retains body heat while ensuring comfortable air circulation, serving as a light alternative to bulky fleece sweatshirts.

The middle layer, made of thermoplastic polyurethane laminate, ensures water resistance even in moderate rain conditions.

• Adjustable cuffs with Velcro
• Drawstrings for width adjustment at the bottom of the jacket

Water Resistance Ratings

Water resistance values indicate the ability of the material to withstand water pressure: 0 - 1500 mm indicates almost no water resistance (suitable for dry conditions), whereas 10000 - 15000 mm signifies excellent protection against heavy rain and snow.

Breathability

Breathability (or vapor permeability) refers to a material's ability to allow sweat to escape as vapor. The higher the rating, the more effective the air circulation. Ratings between 2000 - 5000 MVP strike a balance between warmth retention and comfort during moderate physical activity, such as working on a construction site.
