WINDSTOPPER® ACTIVE SHELL

WINDSTOPPER® Active Shells are the lightest, most packable garments offering total windproofness, maximum breathability and water resistance. WINDSTOPPER® Active Shells keep you comfortable for enhanced performance during highly aerobic activities.

Without The Windstopper® Membrane:

The blue areas show that this fabric cannot withstand wind. Although outside temperature remains the same, you will quickly start to feel cold. This is the windchill effect.
