Resilient and comfortable, three-layer fabrics offer durable weather protection balanced by high breathability levels. If you’re looking for wet weather protection that will keep you dry in torrential downpours, opt for a three-layer hard shell jacket.

Three-layer shells consist of:

An internal, friction-reducing layer that protects the membrane from abrasion and moisture from the skin

A technical membrane that offers waterproof and breathable qualities

An external face fabric made of durable and protective nylon or polyester
