The breathability rating is measured in grams, and specifically looks at how many grams of water vapor can travel through the fabric. Then it is watched over the course of a day to determine how many millimeters of water the fabric can withstand before it soaks through. In this test, the fabric is pulled tight under a 1 inch diameter sealed tube of water. The waterproof rating is measured in millimeters using a Hydrostatic Head test. The industry has developed special ratings to help you understand your jacket’s ability to repel water and let air through. The description of each jacket will explain the unique fabrics that jacket features. Gore-Tex, AdvancedSkin and infiDRY (among others) are waterproof AND breathable. Luckily, fabrics that do both exist, and most men’s jackets available at L9 incorporate these materials.
Some features you should look for include the fabric, the waterproof/breathability ratings, and the insulation.Įveryone wants a jacket that is sealed up tight to keep out the cold and snow, but they also want it to breathe, so they don’t feel like they’re stuck in a greenhouse. For example, zip vents in the jacket (usually in the armpits or back) can turn a super insulated jacket into a light cooling piece. At L9 Sports, we carry men’s jackets for warm spring days and frigid stormy winter days, and some that work great all the time. You want to make sure that your jacket has everything you need - waterproofing, warmth and fit top that list.
