Men’s shell jackets

Shell jackets adapted for leisure activities and climate. The purpose of a shell jacket is to protect the upper body from wind and rain. The jacket is often combined with a pair of Shell trousers to provide complete protection against weather and wind. The shell jacket is the ultimate garment for use throughout the year and is therefore perfectly suited to our changing Nordic climate.

What can be decisive when choosing a shell jacket often comes down to the small but important details. Like an adjustable fit where you can easily block out external elements such as rain and snow, while the seams are carefully placed to avoid chafing when using a backpack. With us, you can also find extra lightweight shell jackets from the L.I.M series that easily fit into your luggage, whether it's in your bag on the way to work or in your hiking backpack during a long trek. Explore our wide range of shell jackets for men!

Shell jackets for men adapted to climate and outdoor activities

The classic shell jacket is the outer layer in a layering system and is designed to withstand wind and water. The base layer consists of a thermal layer whose function is to wick away sweat and insulate body heat. In colder weather, a mid-layer or fleece sweater is necessary to increase warmth even further. While the base and mid-layers insulate and create warmth, the shell jacket's function is to protect the body from external factors. The combination of these layers allows you to easily adjust your body temperature by adding or removing one or more layers. The shell jacket is an essential garment for windy and/or rainy days, and it's likely why the shell jacket is a cherished year-round garment in our Nordic climate.

Multifunctional shell jackets for men

All our shell jackets are designed to meet high standards of protection against rain, snow, and moisture. Even our simplest shell jackets keep you dry for several hours in persistent rain, while our more advanced shell jackets keep you dry regardless of weather conditions and the length of your adventure. Haglöfs' shell jackets come in many designs, and it’s the details and material choices that set our jackets apart from many others in terms of quality and functionality. Our wide range offers longer models for increased protection and shorter models for greater mobility. Jackets for climbing and skiing are often made with tough, durable outer fabrics in nylon, while shell jackets for hiking (such as those from the L.I.M series) are optimized to be flexible, pack small, lightweight, and breathable.
