Lightweight jacket

Musto introduces the new Breeze jacket

The design of Musto’s new Windward Jacket (above) is based on the hugely successful Caribbean Jacket, with the introduction of a microfleece lining to cope with tropical night sailing and riding the rails in breezy Tradewinds.

The shell is a light but durable ripstop nylon; it’s completely waterproof yet effectively breathable; all seams are taped.

In both men’s and women’s sizes, sharing five colourways, the styling has also been enhanced with such details as contrast colour bar-tacking, matching the zip pull tags, to reinforce stress points.

The deep collar conceals a mesh-lined hood, which can be adjusted for volume and aperture to give an excellent fit. Other performance and comfort details include adjustable elasticated cuffs and a scoop back hem with an elasticated adjuster. Two large zipped, front pockets and an inner security pocket can accommodate valuables such a mobile or a GPS.
