Men Softshell jackets

Softshell jackets for men: for sports and outdoor activities of all kinds

Are you looking for a suitable jacket for the transitional period in spring or autumn, when it is still pleasantly warm during the day but rather cool in the mornings and evenings? A softshell jacket is perfect for these times, as it keeps your body warm and still impresses with its pleasantly light materials.

At Transa, you will find a large selection of different softshell jackets for men that you can wear when trekking, but also for other leisure activities and on your daily commute to work. Whether a softshell jacket, transition jacket or winter jacket - you can choose exactly the jacket that best suits your lifestyle here in the shop.

Softshell jackets for men: light, windproof and water-repellent

A jacket that keeps you warm should always be in your luggage. On cool days or in the transitional season, a softshell jacket for men is ideal for all outdoor activities.

You can recognise good softshell jackets for men by the following features:

• The softshell jacket is very light and hardly weighs you and your luggage down.
• It is breathable and moisture-regulating, so you won't break a light sweat in the jacket.
• The material is pleasantly soft and flexible. It follows your every move. It is also water-repellent and can withstand even a short downpour. The material also dries quickly so that you can quickly put the jacket back on after a rain shower.
• The jacket material is as abrasion-resistant as possible on the shoulders to minimise wear and tear from the straps of your backpack.
• The softshell jacket for men has an ergonomic cut and therefore adapts perfectly to your body shape without constricting you.
• These jackets are available with or without a hood. Models with a hood reliably protect your head from wind and rain. Many hoods are also helmet-compatible. This means you can also wear the jacket for activities such as climbing.
• Pre-shaped elbow sections, underarm ventilation, hoods with adjustable visors or practical thumb loops ensure a comfortable fit. The seams are often taped and therefore also waterproof.
• Side and chest pockets offer additional storage space that you can use for a compass, GPS device or similar items when you're out and about.
• Adjustable cuffs, an adjustable hem and stand-up collar with drawstring and a full-length zip with chin guard ensure that no wind can penetrate the jacket.

Ideal for the transitional period or as a second layer

A softshell jacket for men is perfect for activities in the transitional period - i.e. for the first hikes in spring or when the first morning mist sets in in autumn. If the wind is really whistling around the treetops in the mountains, we recommend a windstopper softshell. With this windstopper model, you are well equipped against the cold mountain wind.

However, if the temperatures continue to drop and the rain lasts for a long length of time, you should opt for additional rain protection. A waterproof all-weather jacket (hardshell) is the perfect jacket for you in this case. However, you should also pay attention to your softshell jacket in these weather conditions. It no longer serves as your sole protection, but becomes the ideal second layer. Worn under a weatherproof hardshell, it takes on the insulating function when hiking, trekking or alpine touring in winter.
