The 686 Waterproof Hooded Jacket pairs an infiDRY(R) 10K softshell with a polyester fleece backing, so it feels soft against the skin without giving up real protection from rain and wind. The 3-layer bonded construction and PFAS-free DWR block out wet weather while staying breathable during active movement, and pit vents let heat escape once the pace picks up. An adjustable hood, cuffs, and hem seal out the elements when conditions turn, making it as ready for a wet trail as it is for everyday wear. What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I wore this through a steady rain expecting the fleece backing to soak through eventually, and it never did. The pit vents are the reason I don't have to choose between staying dry and overheating on the way up a steep trail."
