The Sportful Hotpack Norain jacket is great choice if you’re looking for a waterproof jacket that’s also breathable, comfortable, and won’t slow you down with excessive windflap either.

The first thing to note is that although we have been testing the white version, there are a couple of other colour options with the Sportful Hotpack Norain jacket, so if white seems like an impractical choice then black and yellow might be preferable to you.
