MSRP: $325 USD
Nau’s Shelter Jacket is a waterproof, breathable shell cut for climbers and cyclists but friendly to many outdoor pursuits. The simple, clean lines hide technical features like rip-resistant stretch fabric, pit zips and a large helmet-ready hood. Nau stand behind their sustainability initiatives by donating two percent of sales through their own ‘Partners For Change’ while their ‘Ecocircle’ program extends this jacket cradle-to-cradle through recycling at the end of its lifespan - looking at the attention to detail and high-quality construction, that could be a very long time. Pluses: lightweight and well-designed, high sustainability standards. Minuses: slightly awkward to wear zipped all the way up but with the hood down. Availability: USA Nau outlets & online (Available Fall 2010 in Canada). Sizes & Colors: Men’s S-XL / Mantle or Caviar. – David Niddrie
