hardshell is basically a jacket that is worn as an outer layer and is durable, waterproof and windproof.\u00a0 It is a strong protective jacket to help keep you warm, dry, and comfortable.\u00a0 Some are insulated, but most are not.\u00a0 Many include a waterproof membrane that can be made from several different materials.\u00a0 One of the most popular is GoreTex, but many companies use other materials as well.\u00a0 For example, Patagonia uses H2NO, and Helly Hansen uses their own Infinity Fabric.\u00a0 \u00a0Many jackets have a DWR (Durable Water Resistant) coating, which helps to make the water drops run off the jacket with ease, and not soak in.\u00a0 This greatly enhances its ability to repel moisture.\u00a0 This DWR coating can wear off over time and use, but can be easily reapplied by a spray that you can purchase.\u00a0<\/h5><h5>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0A key factor to a good hardshell jacket, is not only it&#8217;s waterproof and windproof qualities, it must have the ability to breathe.\u00a0 A good jacket must allow moisture vapor and hot air to escape, while keeping cold wind and water out.\u00a0 This is extremely important to keep you comfortable.\u00a0<\/h5><h5>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0The thickness of the jackets fabric also varies.\u00a0 Some are lightweight and thin, while others are thicker, heavier and more durable.\u00a0 While many of these jackets can be quite expensive, they are worth their price when you need them.\u00a0 A valuable piece of gear no matter what you&#8217;re doing or where you are.\u00a0 In the mountains or around town, they will protect you from rain, wind, ice and snow.\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0

few features that can make your hardshell jacket the perfect outer layer for you.\u00a0<\/h5><h5>\u00a0<\/h5><h5><strong>1.\u00a0 Pit Zips:<\/strong>\u00a0 A zipper placed under each am pit to vent out hot air, keeping you cooler, while still keeping rain out.\u00a0\u00a0<\/h5><h5><strong>2.\u00a0 Hoods:<\/strong>\u00a0 The hoods can be either helmet compatible or not.\u00a0 Also, they should be adjustable, many have multiple adjustments.<\/h5><h5><strong>3.\u00a0 Taped Seams:<\/strong>\u00a0 An additional key feature to make a jacket more waterproof.\u00a0 Not allowing water to soak into seams in the fabrics.<\/h5><h5><strong>4.\u00a0 Waterproof zippers:<\/strong>\u00a0 Both the main zipper, as well as pocket zippers\u00a0 should be waterproof.\u00a0<\/h5><h5>\u00a0<\/h5><h5><strong>5.\u00a0 Recco Reflector:<\/strong>\u00a0 A device placed into a jacket that is used by search and rescue teams to help find you if you are lost or
