All-Weather Jacket

Featuring a waterproof breathable nylon shell with taped seams, a Primaloft insulating layer, reflective piping and an elastic waistband, the Atlantis WeatherGear Challenger jacket is equally suitable for cruising, PHRF racing or a walk in the woods. A raised collar helps keep out wind and spray, as do a pair of Velcro straps at the wrists. Part of Atlantis’ new “Dock to Deck” collection, the Challenger is available in a number of color combinations, including red and blue, white and blue, and “Arbor.” It comes in both men’s and women’s sizes. $280.
