Contrary to popular belief, the women's sleeveless jacket is making a strong comeback in women's wardrobes - such as in men's wardrobes - thanks to its many advantages and its ease of adaptation to any look.
Practical and comfortable, the sleeveless vest has become an essential piece of a modern wardrobe. Besides keeping you warm in all seasons, it can keep you warm in winter as in middle season. In addition of being versatile, it has the advantage of being easy in terms of maintenance. Still not sure? Discover in the following article all the advantages of this long-underestimated piece.
1 - Freedom of movement
One of the benefits advocated by most is the convenience and comfort of sleeveless jackets. Thanks to the absence of sleeves, the down jacket gives you a lot of freedom of movement. They allow you to move freely without restriction compared to conventional winter jackets. This explains its success for outdoor sports activities. Originally, the sleeveless down jacket was designed for sportsmen before gradually becoming a fashion piece.
For example, they are perfect for outdoor sports such as skiing, hiking, mountaineering or snowboarding, especially when worn as an undercoat.
2 - Perfect for all seasons
Contrary to what you might think, women's sleeveless down jackets can be worn not only in mid-season, but also in winter, making them a versatile jacket. When it's cold, under a coat or over a heavy sweater, it will provide a second layer of protection against sub-zero temperatures. In mid-season, the down jacket will be your essential piece when the wind is still present. Discreet and easy to wear, you will be able to remove it easily in case of sudden weather changes.
Sleeveless down jackets are practical and stylish. Offering freedom of movement, being easily transportable and adaptable with different looks and layers (coats, sweaters, t-shirts), they are a great choice for those looking to enhance their year-round experience.
3 - Its thermal insulation
An efficient sleeveless jacket is above all a down jacket that keeps you warm. It is therefore important to pay attention to the filling of this one and especially to its filling power. Down jackets filled with natural down are more likely to keep you warm during your outdoor activities thanks to the air they trap between their two fabric walls. Numerous studies have shown that a natural filling, in addition to being 100% biodegradable, has a greater capacity to keep and store body heat compared to its synthetic counterpart (often polyester)… which is also sadly derived from the petrochemical industry.
Thermal insulation also depends on the quality of the fabrics and materials used. A high-quality fabric, besides being durable and resistant, should also be able to avoid any unpleasant sensation of humidity. To avoid this problem, choose a sleeveless down jacket made with breathable fabrics that will help you wick away sweat.
At Pyrenex - a committed brand from the South-West of France - we have chosen to use only natural fillings. For more than 160 years, our factory has been beautifying feathers and down from the local agricultural sector to produce in a responsible manner (upcycling) one of the best performing natural fillings in the world. This high-quality material is used in all of our down jackets, including sleeveless down jackets, to make them durable, comfortable and long-lasting. With different thicknesses of fill, women's sleeveless down jackets can be tailored to meet all your protection needs. These pieces are always paired with its soft, breathable fabrics, designed to last season after season.
