The Reference Gore Tex PRO Jacket is developed for demanding offshore sailing and prolonged exposure in harsh marine conditions. Constructed with 3-layer GORE-TEX® PRO, the jacket combines a durable 80 denier nylon face fabric with a micro-grid nylon ripstop backer, creating a highly durable construction with increased abrasion resistance. Waterproof, windproof and highly breathable, it is engineered to provide long-lasting protection against wind, rain and saltwater.

The lower back is reinforced with ergonomically positioned, laser-cut panels for increased durability in a high-wear area without restricting freedom of movement. Internally, Bemis® Exoflex seam reinforcement creates a clean, lightweight construction with reduced bulk.

At the front, a two-way water-resistant YKK® VT10 AquaGuard zipper features corrosion-resistant sliders and pullers designed for marine environments. Behind the zipper, a wide molded internal storm placket with integrated drainage channels helps direct water away and limit water ingress.

The high collar is lined with Bemis® Luxe Touch, a soft, non-absorbent material that enhances comfort during extended periods at sea. A foldable hood is integrated into the collar and features an ergonomic construction, welded brim and integrated storm cap that wraps around the forehead for increased protection in exposed conditions. Reflective detailing at the back enhances visibility in low-light conditions. The hood is adjusted with a Cohaesive® system for easy one-handed adjustment, even while wearing gloves. An integrated Cohaesive® adjustment at the bottom hem allows the fit to be refined for a closer seal against wind and water.

Two spacious chest pockets with water-resistant YKK® VT10 AquaGuard zippers provide easily accessible storage, with internal mesh organization in the left chest pocket for smaller equipment. The waist pockets feature wide openings, welded pocket flaps with Velcro closures and laser-cut drainage holes to efficiently drain water. The right waist pocket also includes an internal mesh pocket and an integrated gear loop for securing equipment. An internal TECHSTEEL VECTRAN® pocket provides protected storage for sensitive equipment.

The sleeves are constructed with waterproof, laminated Super Stretch inner cuffs and TECHSTEEL VECTRAN® adjustment for a close seal around the wrists without restricting mobility, while the outer cuffs are adjusted with Velcro.

A wide external hanging loop at the back of the neck allows the jacket to be easily hung after use. Reflective molded Sail Racing block logos on the sleeves, together with reflective Sail Racing and GORE-TEX® PRO logos, complete the construction and enhance visibility in low-light conditions.
