Product Details
Descente's lightweight sun protection skin jacket is the crossover piece between technical outerwear and everyday comfort. The shell fabric is a cool-touch ice-silk weave that provides immediate temperature reduction on contact — comfortable enough to wear in an air-conditioned office yet protective enough for prolonged outdoor exposure. High-factor UV blocking keeps skin safe without relying solely on sunscreen, and DWR water repellency handles unexpected drizzle and perspiration beads equally. The integrated hood extends up over the neck for complete facial-frame coverage, and the clean low-profile branding and minimal cut pair with T-shirts or shirts without looking overly technical. Packable into its own pocket for bag storage. Available in black and light grey.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the Descente skin jacket compare to standard windbreakers in terms of weight?
It is noticeably lighter than a standard windbreaker -- the skin jacket fabric is designed to be minimal and packable rather than insulating. It blocks UV and light wind but is not waterproof.
Is this jacket unisex or does it have a gendered cut?
The Descente skin jacket in this listing has a unisex-leaning athletic cut. Women often size down one for a more tailored fit.
What care is recommended to maintain the surface finish?
Cold wash gentle cycle, no fabric softener. Air dry preferred. The smooth surface finish can be slightly affected by high-heat tumble drying over time.
