The Portwest EV4 Shell Rain Jacket is a high-performance rain jacket specifically designed for professionals who need to work outdoors in all weather conditions. This jacket provides excellent protection against heavy rain and wind, while the material moves flexibly during active work. Thanks to its advanced construction, this model is ideal for construction, logistics, and other demanding sectors where reliable workwear is essential.
Which working conditions is this EV4 Shell Rain Jacket best suited for?
This professional rain jacket is extremely well-suited for intensive work in extremely wet and harsh outdoor conditions.
Thanks to the EN 343 class 4:4 certification, the jacket offers the highest standard in terms of waterproofness and breathability. The innovative Acti-Reach panel construction minimizes friction and increases the mobility of your arms and torso when reaching and turning. This makes the jacket perfect for physically demanding outdoor work where freedom of movement is crucial.
What does the EN 343 class 4:4 standard mean for this rain jacket?
The EN 343 class 4:4 standard indicates that this jacket meets the very highest requirements for both waterproofness and breathability.
The first class 4 represents an excellent waterproofness of 20,000 millimeters, meaning the fabric is resistant to very high water pressure. The second class 4 represents superior breathability, which effectively wicks away perspiration. This prevents a clammy feeling on the inside, even during strenuous physical exertion.
The jacket is equipped with a comfortable hood with a peak, articulated elbows, underarm zippers for extra ventilation, and five convenient storage pockets with waterproof zippers.
