What’s the difference between a softshell and a hardshell jacket?

At Cortazu, we offer top-quality jackets to suit every adventure. Our hardshell jackets are perfect for braving extreme weather. With advanced waterproof and windproof technologies, our hardshell jackets keep you dry and protected even in the harshest conditions. 

For those who prefer versatility and comfort during active pursuits in milder weather, our softshell jackets are the ideal choice. They combine flexibility, breathability, and water resistance to handle light rain while ensuring maximum comfort. Whether you're facing a storm or hitting the trail, Cortazu has the perfect jacket for your needs, including the best waterproof jacket for your adventures.

How to choose a shell jacket

When selecting a Cortazu shell jacket, focus on the specific features tailored to your outdoor needs. For a men's rain jacket or a waterproof jacket mens, look for premium waterproofing through materials, which provides excellent protection against rain and wind. For breathability, our designs include ventilation zippers and highly breathable fabrics, making them ideal for active pursuits. Consider the fit and functional details, such as helmet-compatible hoods, ample storage pockets, and adjustable cuffs and hems, which are standard in Cortazu jackets. If packability is important, opt for our lightweight models, which are designed to be easily stowed away when not in use. Check out our jacket comparison to help you find the right jacket for your adventure.

Are all shell jackets waterproof?

At Cortazu, our hardshell jackets are designed to offer maximum protection against rain and wind with advanced waterproof membranes, making them ideal for heavy precipitation or snow. 

In contrast, our softshell jackets are more water-resistant and provide protection against light rain and snow but are not intended for extended exposure to heavy rainfall. For robust waterproofing, choose a hardshell jacket or the best waterproof jacket for your needs. For versatility and comfort in varied conditions, a softshell jacket might be the better option.

Should a shell jacket’s fit be loose or tight?

A shell jacket can be slightly loose rather than tight-fitting to allow for layering, ensure good mobility, and aid in ventilation. Whether it's a hiking jacket or a waterproof rain jacket, the fit should accommodate base and mid-layers comfortably without restricting movement, while also avoiding excess fabric that could hinder activity or flap in the wind. This ensures the jacket remains functional as a waterproof and warm jacket. To Ensure you pick the right jacket, please take our product quiz here.
