The Outdoor Extreme Eco rain jacket from Columbia has unique features that are unparalleled in outdoor performance. Features include:
- Recycled Materials For Every Piece: This jacket is made with 100% recycle material. Each jacket is comprised of 21 recycle bottles to prevent more waste in the environment, and each label, zipper pull, toggle, eyelet, and thread is made with recycled materials.
- Responsible Technology For Protection: Most rain jackets use PFC water repellents to make the material waterproof, but Columbia designed OutDry Extreme to resist water without using bio-accumulative PFCs.
- Preventing Waste Before It Happens: Columbia made a production method that decreases water consumption, further reducing waste in manufacturing the jacket. The jacket is white because designers didn’t use any dyes, saving more than 13 gallons of water – it’s a clean palette for a clean planet.
- Dry Inside And Out: The fabric wicks away moisture with advanced technology, keeping you dry from the rain and from sweat. The material is made with more ventilation for better breathability while you wear it.
- Cleaning Up Water Sources: Without wasting water, throwing out plastic bottles, and washing away bioaccumulative PFCs, Columbia has decreased landfill burdens and energy excess for oil extraction.
- Reducing Stains, Wear, and Tear: The new Columbia jacket does not trap dirt and stains like dyed textile fabrics. Instead, dirt can be easily wiped away with a cloth. This further decreases waste in cleaning the jacket after you purchase it.
Additional features of the jacket include external seam tape, an attached and adjustable storm hood, zippered hand pockets, a bonded visor, hem, and cuffs, draw cord adjustable hem, and adjustable contoured sleeve cuffs.The Columbia Rain Jacket Outdry Extreme Eco At Appalachian Outfitters
