Craft launches body-mapped jacket
07/02/2011
The soft shell jacket is designed for running and other sports and features a technical inside, which with laser-cut perforations on 'hot spots' and bonded fleece insulation on colder areas. Craft has incorporated all its body-mapping knowledge into the new Elite Pace Jacket. Developed for cold and windy conditions, the high-tech running piece offers full protection from wind and weather and, according to the company, focuses on the perfect balance of breathability and insulation.
On 'hot spots' (under the arms and on the back) laser-cut perforations allow ventilation, while brushed microfleece panels are bonded on shoulder, chest and kidney areas to provide comfortable warmth and ensure moisture management. The complex, pre-shaped 3D cut and the breathable four-way stretch fabric offer freedom of movement and comfort, despite the jacket’s athletic, body-hugging fit. The jacket also includes reflective details on the front, back and arms, and features a music pocket on the chest and hook and loop adjustments at the cuffs.
