Insulated vs. Non-Insulated Jackets

Insulated vs. Non-Insulated Jackets

(Summary description)Insulated Jackets Insulated shell jackets are a great addition to your COLD-WEATHER CLOTHING as they are designed to keep you warm in ways that non-insulated shells can’t.  A typical insulated jacket is comprised of an outer layer—either a hard or soft shell—along with an insulating layer that’s constructed directly into the jacket. This layer is usually made of a fleece, down, or synthetic material which are all great ways to stay protected from the cold. Non-Insulated Jackets While it may sound like insulated shells are the be-all, end-all when it comes to jackets, the benefits of a non-insulated shell jacket may be more aligned with the outdoor activities you'll be taking part in. Non-insulated shells are the best choice if you’re looking for a lightweight jacket as they don’t have the built-in layer that insulated shells do. These shells fit easily over multiple insulating layers, creating a much more versatile and adaptive layering system, and can be packed down tightly while adding little additional weight. Waterproof/Breathable vs. Water Resistant You’ll find that many insulated jackets don’t use waterproof, breathable technology. If it’s cold enough to wear an insulated jacket in the first place you’re more likely to encounter snow than rain, and jackets that are water resistant usually suffice to keep you dry in a snowstorm. Most non-insulated shells use a waterproof, breathable coating or laminate to keep you dry in any weather. This is a nice feature to have, especially if you decide to wear it as a rain jacket in the spring or summer. The 3-In-1 Approach There’s a third option when it comes to deciding between an insulated and noninsulated shell jacket: buy both in one. 3-in-1 jackets feature all the aspects of proper layering technique in one garment, and are built with two pieces that fasten tightly together and can be worn either separately or as one. If it's raining, but not very cold, wear the waterproof outer shell. On a cold but dry day, use just the insulating liner. But if the weather goes sour and you need protection from both the cold and the rain, fasten them together, and you're all set. The preference for either an insulated or non-insulated jacket is unique to everyone. So take a moment to decide what's best for you and how your jacket will help you have a comfortable experience in the outdoors.
