A good premium windproof jacket has the following features:

• A hood: When the wind howls, you don't want it freezing your ears or ruining your hair. Put your hood on and enjoy the protection.
• Several pockets: After all, some items need to stay close-by, right?
• A full or half-zip: Allowing you to take it off easily, or simply let it breathe a little.
• A light rain protection: The water resistant fabric will keep you dry in a drizzle.

Please note that windbreaker jackets aren't enough when the rain starts pouring or the temperatures take a dip. That’s when it’s time to bring out your Omni-Tech™ womens waterproof jacket or your thick, warm and quilted womens puffer jacket.
