Layer
Outer Layer
The outer layer, or shell as it is sometimes known, has a big job to do.  It is your best form of defence against wind.  Choose a garment that will do that, not just by fabric, but by DESIGN!

Function
Windproof, Breathable
Windshield Outer Layers provide total all round wind protection with extra warmth and comfort for when it comes in hard and cold!Swazi’s Windshield outer layers combine all of the technical performance features of the Aegis membrane with the added bonus of the comfort of fleece.  The 3-layer Aegis membrane ensures that the Windshield range is 100% windproof and breathable, and effortlessly handles most showers.  In fact the only reason Swazi’s Windshield range isn’t 100% waterproof is that fleece can’t be seam sealed – eventually water will come through the stitching.  Great looking garments with superb performance mean this range is so stylish and so comfortable you will want to wear it all of the time.There’s no point in wearing something that keeps out the rain if it keeps in the sweat – you still get wet!We spend 2 years perfecting AEGIS® so that we ended up with a fabric that never gets wet, never let’s moisture in from the outside, but lets moisture (perspiration) out.  It breathes, but only in one direction (bit scary using that phrase these days…)
