The Musto Offshore Jacket and Bibs are made of BR2, offering a high level of protection, durability and breathability. BR2 is a two-layer microporous membrane fabric with a polyester mesh lining. The fabric breathes by allowing moisture from the warm, high-humidity zone around the body to escape through microscopic holes too small for liquid water to penetrate. The fabric is also treated with a durable water-repellency (DWR) finish, forcing the water to bead and run. The shell of these items is 83% polyamide, 17% polyurethane, with a 100% polyester lining.

The Offshore Jacket features a roll-away fleece-lined hood and collar with easy adjusters for a perfect fit, adjustable hem tensioner, and articulated elbows and underarms for freedom and movement. The double-cuff design gives virtual drysuit cuff protection. Internally, the jacket features fleece-lined handwarmer pockets on the chest and behind the external cargo pockets, an inner security pocket to protect personal items, and an internal glasses pocket with a microfiber cleaning cloth to take care of spray residue. Externally, large self-draining cargo pockets offer easy access to essential accessories. Prismatic reflectors offer increased visibility. View matching Men’s Offshore Bibs here.
