As everywhere else, the degree of specialization in insulation jackets has also increased. The choice of shapes, colors and number of models has become quite confusing. Yet we often actually strive for products that function properly in a wide range of applications.
The Pinneco insulation jacket from Penguin is just such a jacket. It has become a favorite remarkably quickly and I wear it in different situations.
Why is that? Well, the short answer is that it simply wears well and you hardly notice you're wearing it. And it's now available with the PowderGuide logo!
The longer answer involves several aspects. The basic stats are solid - it's (almost) windproof, lightweight (weighed in at 350 grams in size M), has a simple, adjustable hood that is also lined and three pockets, two of which are side pockets and an internal Napoleon pocket for small items.
