The design takes care of all the details appreciated by hardshell users. The Squall is a full-fledged rain jacket with taped seams and a two-way adjustable hood with a high collar. Additional protection against moisture is provided by waterproof YKK AquaGuard zippers, of which the main zipper is two-way and secured at the bottom with a Prym snap. The Squall Hardshell Jacket has been covered with a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) hydrophobic coating, free of harmful PFC (perfluorocarbons).
The Squall Jacket complements the Helikon-Tex offer with the most modern outer layer. What is the difference between softshell and hardshell? A softshell jacket (e.g. Blizzard Jacket) is a soft layer that protects against light wind and drizzle, mainly due to the DWR impregnation. Hardshell is a stronger layer that is supposed to provide much better water resistance while maintaining good breathability. Both of these parameters are combined in the Squall Jacket.
Hardshell Squall has been designed so that in winter an additional warming layer can be placed under it (e.g. Wolfhound Hoodie Jacket). Because of that the hardshell will work as an independent jacket in the spring and as an outer layer for winter expeditions. It has three pockets, two of which are lowered compared to the men's model to improve comfort. The third pocket is placed inside for documents or a phone. The hook & loop on the left shoulder will facilitate personalization. In addition, the Squall Jacket takes up little space when folded. Rolled up it fits into its hood.

Sam izgled jakne se mi zdi boljši kot sem pričakoval
Jakno sem kupil predvsem za primere, ko grem v dežju ali slabših vremenskih pogojih v kake manj zahtevne hribe ali pa enostavno po gozdu.
Doslej je še nisem imel priložnosti preizkusiti v bolj zahtevnih pogojih, tako da to lahko dopišem kasneje, ko bom to tudi preizkusil. Kar pa sem do sedaj hodil po dežju, pa se lepo vidi, da vodo zelo dobro odbija.
Design jakne se mi zelo dopade, tako da bi se mi jo zdelo kar malo škoda uporabljati za primere, za katere imam namen uporabljati. Je tudi kot ulita, ni preširoka niti preozka. Tudi barva Coyote izgleda kar zelo v redu.
Zelo vseč mi je tudi, da zavzame v nahrbtniku precej manj prostora, kot moja dosedanja jakna ECWCS Parka. To je bil tudi en glavnih razlogov, za nabavo.
