Product description
If you’re looking for a lightweight softshell that can handle blustery walks and commuting without feeling bulky, this 33,000ft men’s jacket is built for that kind of in-between weather. The outer fabric is described as windproof and water resistant, with a treatment to help the shell repel light moisture.
On paper it ticks a lot of practical boxes: a hood that can be adjusted, a flexible fabric mix, and multiple pockets designed for everyday carry. Still, it’s not a full-on waterproof shell—something to keep in mind if your plans involve sustained rain rather than quick showers.
The essentials
This is a men’s outdoor softshell jacket with a hood, aimed at people who want wind protection and breathability for active use and day-to-day wear. The fabric blend is 96% polyester and 4% elastane, which should help with comfort and movement compared with stiffer shells.
The jacket’s weather resistance is where expectations matter. The outer fabric has a water resistant jacket treatment rated at 8000 mm H2O, but the seams are explicitly noted as not treated to be waterproof. That means it’s best thought of as a light-rain option rather than a raincoat you rely on during moderate or heavy downpours.
Key takeaways
What stands out most is how the jacket is set up for hands-on activity rather than just hanging in the wardrobe. You get adjustable velcro cuffs, an adjustable hood cord, and an adjustable hem—details that help you seal out drafts when the weather turns.
It also leans into visibility and carry. There’s a reflective logo on the chest and arms, intended to improve safety when you’re out at night. And the pocket layout is fairly purposeful: two outer pockets with soft fleece lining (for warmth and hand comfort), two deep inner patch pockets for valuables, plus a chest pocket for extra storage.
What you’ll notice day to day
In use, the jacket’s concept is simple: keep wind off your torso and maintain comfort while you move. The flexible elastane content should help when you’re running, cycling, or simply reaching and adjusting on the move.
The fleece-lined outer pockets are a small but real quality-of-life touch—especially if you wear the jacket in spring or autumn when temperatures can drop fast. A practical example: on an evening run, you can pull the hood cord tighter, use the outer pockets to warm your hands briefly, and keep your phone in the pocket that’s described as large enough for a large phone.
It’s also framed as suitable for a broad range of activities: hiking, camping, fishing, horse riding, travelling, driving, hunting, cycling, and everyday life. That variety usually indicates a jacket designed to be worn beyond one niche sport.

It may not suit you if
It may not be a great match if you often get caught in moderate or heavy rain, because the seams aren’t waterproofed. In those situations you might want a more fully waterproof shell rather than a windproof softshell.
Also, if you’re after a thick, cold-weather insulated jacket, this reads more like a lightweight spring/autumn layer. It can keep the chill down and block wind, but it may feel underpowered compared with genuinely warm insulated outerwear.
Should you buy it?
This 33,000ft men’s softshell is a solid purchase if your main goal is wind protection with a light, breathable feel for everyday wear and active outings, and you usually deal with dry weather or only light rain. The pockets, adjustable hood/cuffs/hem, and reflective details make it more “ready to go” than many basic windbreakers.
It’s not the best choice if you need waterproof performance in sustained rain, since the seams aren’t treated and the brand guidance limits it to light rain. If your typical forecast is wet, you may be better off with a jacket designed specifically for waterproof seam construction.
