Technical details:

1. Materials:

   • Main Fabric - Rain Protection : The jacket uses a 3-layer fabric or similar material that combines waterproof and breathable properties. The outer fabric is often made of polyester or nylon treated with a durable water repellent (DWR) coating to repel light rain and snow.
   • Waterproof Layers : The fabric is designed to be waterproof yet breathable, preventing external moisture from penetrating while allowing perspiration to escape to prevent heat and moisture build-up inside the jacket.
   • Inner Lining : The inside of the jacket is typically made with a lightweight mesh fabric or other breathable material that improves moisture management and provides comfort throughout the workout.

2. Breathability and heat management:

   • Improved ventilation : For better heat management, the jacket is equipped with strategic ventilation zones, such as openings under the arms or on the sides, which allow perspiration to escape quickly.
   • Breathable Technology : The material used in this jacket is designed to be highly breathable , allowing for efficient evacuation of body heat and moisture. This is especially important for high-intensity activities like running or cycling.

3. Weather protection:

   • Waterproofing : With a DWR treatment and waterproof fabric construction, the Core Endur Hydro Jacket provides protection against light rain and snow. However, it is not designed for very heavy or prolonged rain conditions.
   • Windproof : The jacket also protects against cold wind , which is essential during outdoor activities in the mountains or outdoors in windy conditions.

4. Design and ergonomics:

   • Slim Fit : The jacket is designed with a slim fit that hugs the shape of the female body without being too restrictive, providing great freedom of movement while remaining aerodynamic and comfortable.
   • Taped Seams : Seams are often taped or heat sealed to prevent water from seeping through the seams and to provide a better seal.
   • Adjustable Sleeves and Hem : The sleeves can be fitted with elastic cuffs to prevent cold air and moisture from entering, while the bottom hem can be adjusted to better seal the jacket and provide better protection against wind and rain.

5. Practicality and features:

   • Zippered Pockets : The jacket has secure zippered pockets , often located on the sides, to store essential items such as keys, energy gels or a mobile phone.
   • Adjustable hood : The jacket is equipped with an adjustable hood , often with a drawstring, to protect the head and face from wind and rain. It is designed to be snug enough not to obstruct vision while still providing full protection.
   • Compressibility and lightness : This jacket is lightweight and compressible , making it easy to store in a backpack when you don't need it. It is ideal for activities where equipment needs to be as light and compact as possible.
   • Reflective Details : Reflective elements are incorporated into the jacket to increase visibility when running or doing outdoor activities in low light conditions, such as early morning or late afternoon.

6. Comfort and ergonomics:

   • Flexibility and comfort : The lightweight and stretchy fabric ensures great flexibility and optimal comfort during movements. It allows you to adapt to natural gestures, especially when running or cycling, without limiting performance.
   • Comfortable Lining : The internal lining is soft and comfortable against the skin, allowing the jacket to be worn over a base layer without causing chafing or irritation.
