Except for the zipper teeth, every part of this lightly shelled jacket is made from fully recycled materials (and we're working on those zipper teeth). Soft and sporting a modern technical aesthetic, the Lightweight Better Sweater Shelled Jacket has a 100% recycled polyester fleece torso with a smooth sweater-knit face and a warm, fuzzy interior to trap heat. A reinforced yoke made with a limber blend of 87% recycled polyester and 13% spandex provides four-way stretch and protection from pack straps and shoulder bags; a DWR (durable water repellent) finish stops moisture and increases abrasion resistance.
The center-front zipper extends all the way to the chin for extra warmth and wind protection in cool conditions. Spandex binding at the hem, cuffs and collar seals in warmth and rests comfortably on the skin. A left-chest pocket secures with a zipper to hold your prized possessions and zippered handwarmer pockets protect your hands from wind and cold. Fair Trade Certified sewn, which means the people who made it earned a premium for their labour.
