Softshell Mid Layers

Softshell mid layers add wind resistance and stretch over your base layer, blocking chill while breathing during active sailing — the versatile middle of a technical layering system.

What to look for:

  • Wind-resistant: Cuts chill without a full waterproof shell.
  • 4-way stretch: Moves with you for active sailing.
  • Breathable: Vents heat and moisture on the move.

Who it's for: Active sailors wanting wind protection with freedom of movement.
