Tech
Waterproofing - 15,000mmH20
Snow, rain, sleet — out here, moisture is inevitable. A bonded waterproof membrane seals you in, while our PFAS-free DWR treatment sends water beading off the surface before it ever becomes a problem.
Breathability - 10,000g/m2/24hr
The harder you ride, the more your gear needs to keep up. Our bonded membrane system delivers serious breathability, venting body heat and moisture so you stay comfortable from first run to last.
100% Taped Seams - 3-Layer
Seams are where jackets fail. That's why every stitch line is sealed with waterproof tape, blocking water at the most vulnerable points and keeping you dry no matter what the mountain throws at you.
Is the underarm ventilation a mesh vent or something you can open and close?
It's a fixed ventilation hole rather than a zippered vent — the underarm ventilation holes are built into the design to continuously improve breathability and moisture control, so airflow happens passively rather than requiring you to open a zipper to let heat out.
What other pieces does Capelin Crew suggest wearing with this jacket?
For the men's version specifically, the product page recommends pairing it with the Swift Men's Cargo Pant and the Camp Unisex Cargo Pant — both from the same water-repellent outdoor collection, so the fabric performance and styling are designed to work together.
What exactly does "bonded with polyester tricot" mean for how this jacket is built?
It refers to how the 3-layer fabric is put together — the recycled polyester yarn shell is bonded to a polyester tricot backing as part of the professional 3-layer hard shell construction, which is what allows the outer water-repellent layer, waterproof membrane, and breathable inner layer to function as one solid piece of fabric rather than separate layers that could shift or separate over time.
What's the zipper pocket located at the hem actually for?
According to the product page, it's simply described as a zipper pocket design for added convenience and secure storage, positioned at the hem rather than the chest or sides — giving you one more zip-closed spot to keep something secure, in addition to the chest and side pockets.
