Weather Protection and Ventilation

The T-HardShell 2.5L Recycled fabric uses a polyurethane membrane to keep rain out while allowing moisture vapour to escape. Underarm zips provide additional airflow during strenuous activity, and the partially elasticated cuffs can be adjusted with hook-and-loop tabs.

Adjustable Women’s Fit

The regular-fit jacket has pre-shaped sleeves and an adjustable hem. Its hood can be tightened at both the front and rear, helping keep the reinforced brim positioned correctly when the wearer turns her head.

Responsible Production

The jacket uses recycled material and carries the GREEN by Tatonka label. It is manufactured in Tatonka’s own production facility in Vietnam under the company’s fair and transparent production programme.
