Napapijri Rainforest Jacket Review

Following up with a review article, this time we are featuring the Rainforest Winter jacket by Napapijri. This brand has been featured before in our articles, with some jackets for every season.

The jacket being reviewed this time is one that just can not be overlooked. It comes in a minimalist style, with no overboard logos, patches or colors. Very easy to combine with any style you are going for and casual overall look, that goes well in most occasions.

It is long sleeved, in a loose fit design, that offers a lot of room for movement and it is not only very comfortable, it is also quite lightweight, which is not common for most winter jackets.

As always, we will go in-depth, taking a look at the details of the design, to determine the appropriate season, weather conditions and activities it is suitable for, as well as taking a look at the more technical details such as material, water repellency and durability.
