Thanks to its thermal-reflective lining, you can stay warmer than ever—even in windy conditions—in the Columbia Canyon Meadows women’s softshell jacket. With its scuba hood and its wind-resistant fabric, this waterproof and breathable non-insulated shell will provide excellent protection for your outdoor activities. It can be worn as an outer layer in a layering system providing comfort and warmth enabling you to regulate your body temperature by wicking moisture away during your outdoor activities. This onion layering system is made of three types of clothing. The first layer, worn next-to-skin will provide warmth and quickly move moisture away from your skin. Then, the second layer, is the insulation or fleece, that provides warmth while also dissipating heat during periods of high output. And finally, the third layer, the shell, which is the most weather-protective layer, worn on the outside of all other layers.
