The Millet Men’s Sky 500 WDS Jacket makes an ideal shell layer for hikes or extended treks in chilly, windy conditions. Thanks to a stretchy Gore Windstopper shell, you get full protection from light fall breezes and arctic blasts alike. Lighter weight side panels allow for added stretch and mobility, and the two handwarmer pockets warm you digits when you forget your gloves.
NOTE to US Customers: Our Millet garments display the European size on the label. When ordering, please select your normal US size from the drop-down menu. Please view the sizing chart if you have questions.
Bottom Line: Put the wind in its place with the Sky 500.
I'm a bit of a gear addict, and I have to say this is one of my favorite jackets! The Gore Windstopper fabric is extremely soft, windproof (of course) and very resistant to rain (in light rain it beads just like a rain shell). The jacket also has a very soft fleece layer on the inside (which I didn't see mentioned in the Backcountry description or Millet's description). Also, being a European brand, it's cut a little longer and trimmer than most US brands. I highly recommend this jacket!!
