A stylish anorak for an outer layer
of Miia, Blue Tomato Shop Helsinki, Blue Tomato, 28 Feb 2022
This jacket cached my eye because of its relaxed, nice fit and look. It's a bit oversized so I took size S this time (I usually pick M in men's size). The sleeves are slightly long for me and the fit is still a bit baggy but in a good way. I'm 173 cm and normal weight.
Contrary to the description on the website, there is no insulation in the jacket. So be prepared to layer it up on colder days! I've been using the jacket in the city and at a local ski resort. It keeps the light rain off and is windproof, but I would hope for better breathability, that's why no four stars (5k breathability is not much). The jacket is 100% polyester, but only the panels are recycled, so it would be great to have more sustainable parts. Despite this, I like the jacket and it has all the functionality needed while shredding. The big hood and collar are a plus, not to forget the large zipper pockets.
For anyone who wants to look cool but also feel protected from elements in a baggy, relaxed fit anorak, in the park or city. Works the best on slushy spring weather or gloomier days with some layers under the anorak. Heavy-duty material, but not the most breathable.
