New gear from Musto

5th August 2009

The great thing about investing in decent performance clothing here in the western hemisphere is that, as you’ll probably be wearing it throughout the year, you know you’ll get your money’s worth. And Musto’s layering technology is designed to let you get maximum use and benefit across the seasons.

The Evolution Fleece Jacket, available in men’s and ladies’ styles, is made from high quality, high loft Polartec Classic 200 fleece. Now available in new Titanium (pictured below) as well as Black in the men’s style, Evolution Fleece Jackets are trimmed with Lycra at the hem and cuffs for durability and feature embroidered Musto Evolution branding. This jacket will serve you well over a base layer in colder, dry conditions and is a great middle layer worn under the matching waterproof Soft Shell Jacket. If you prefer a short zip, check out Musto’s smock-style Evolution Micro Fleece for men and women.

In northern waters, conditions both on-board and ashore are often wet but not necessarily cold. Musto’s Evolution Soft Shell Jacket provides the total waterproofing of GORE-TEX® but in a fabric which is light and flexible. The Soft Shell outer has a flannel-like backing which makes it comfortable to wear next to the skin giving you all the benefits of Gore waterproof, windproof and breathable technology in a stylish, lightweight package. Articulated elbows, Velcro-adjustable cuffs, scoop back hem with drawcord and zipped pockets complete the spec.

Put the two together to build up layers of protection and comfort as the season nears its end.
