OUTSET SOFT-SHELL JACKET VS. TYPICAL WATERPROOF JACKET

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Outset Soft-Shell Jacket waterproof?

Not fully. The Outset Soft-Shell is highly water-resistant, built with a durable 3-layer fabric and DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating that sheds rain and wind with ease. It’s designed to keep you protected through the weather you actually face—from daily commutes to weekend travel—while staying soft, breathable, and comfortable all day long.

The fabric is rated 20K, meaning it can technically withstand up to 20,000 mm of water pressure (the same rating used in many performance shells). While it’s not built for extreme alpine conditions, it delivers all the protection most people will ever need without the stiffness or bulk of a traditional raincoat.

How breathable is the jacket? Will I overheat during activity?

No—this jacket is built for movement. The 4-way stretch material and integrated under-arm vents allow airflow and temperature control whether you’re commuting, hiking, or traveling. It’s designed to keep you dry and comfortable, even when you’re active.

Is it warm enough for cold weather?

It’s designed for layered versatility. On its own, it’s perfect for mild to cool temps (around 40–65 °F). Layer it over a hoodie or mid-layer for colder conditions.

What’s the difference between this and a rain jacket?

Traditional rain jackets block water but feel crinkly, loud, and stiff. The Outset Soft-Shell uses a soft, stretchy, and breathable fabric that moves naturally—offering all-weather protection with everyday comfort and a modern look.

How packable is the Outset Soft-Shell for travel?

Very. It packs into its own pocket, transforming into a compact travel pillow. Lightweight and wrinkle-resistant, it’s ideal for flights, road trips, and daily carry.

How does the fit compare to other Nomatic jackets?

It features a tailored, drop-cut fit that looks clean and modern. If you prefer a looser fit or plan to layer underneath, size up one.

How durable is it, and how should I care for it?

The Outset Soft-Shell is built to last. Its 3-layer construction uses an abrasion-resistant outer fabric with a bonded membrane and soft inner liner, giving it long-term durability for daily wear, travel, and changing weather.

To keep it performing its best, machine wash cold on a gentle cycle, hang dry, and avoid fabric softeners or bleach. Reapply a DWR spray over time to maintain its water repellency and overall performance.

What is the return, exchange, and warranty policy?

We want you to love your gear. You can return or exchange any item within 30 days of purchase as long as it’s new, unused, and in original packaging with tags attached. Final-sale or clearance items are excluded.

The Outset Soft-Shell comes with Nomatic’s 1-Year Limited Apparel Warranty, which covers defects in materials and workmanship. If you ever experience a quality issue, our team will work with you to repair or replace your jacket.

Awesome Jacket!

Got to be honest, a little skeptical at first but glad I spent the money to purchase. Thin jacket, great feel and best for temps for mild temps. Anything colder you will need to layer but watch out as the jacket is made slim. I purchased a large and it fits really well and any thick under garments will fill out areas. Left hand pocket is where you fold jacket inside as a pillow or easy storage.

Very nice material and feel. Great overall.

Thanks Nomatic

First true water-resistant jacket that did it's job!

Needed a coat that could withstand the wind and light rain. This jacket more than handled a recent outdoor activity in these conditions. Loved having all of the various pockets, which is a credit to the Nomatic brand.

Good for travel

Got this for travel, and it's been a useful addition. It's lightweight and easy to wear without feeling restricted. It's worked well for me both in the East Coast and on trips to Europe. It's comfortable enough to wear all day, which is all I really needed.

Soft Shell Jacket

I bought the Outset Soft-Shell Jacket specifically for my Alaska trip because I needed a waterproof jacket, and it exceeded my expectations. I ended up wearing it every single day. It's lightweight, not bulky at all, and was easy to pack in my NOMATIC backpack when I wasn't wearing it. It kept me comfortable in the changing weather and was the perfect travel jacket. I highly recommend it for anyone looking for a versatile, packable, waterproof jacket.
