Why should I buy a water resistant jacket made with EPIC by Nextec® fabric for nearly the same price as a waterproof, seam-sealed jacket?
While a hard shell, waterproof, seam-sealed jacket is designed to perform during an extreme downpour, it’s compromised breathability makes it a less than ideal choice under more typical conditions. A jacket made with EPIC by Nextec® fabric provides versatile comfort and protection in all but the most severe conditions, making it a more useful, functional garment.
