When you start to think of winter menswear, what do you conjure up first? Perhaps a rugged parka or a burly flannel shirt, right? Perhaps, and those winter style staples are all well and good, but what if I told you that there was a way to get winter warmth with lightweight layering via one of the best men’s shirt jackets — how about that, ehh? Enter the ever-reliable, technically savvy and seriously cool Western Rise AirLoft Shirt Jacket, and make it your new go-to layer for winter. This rugged shirt jacket carries on the Western Rise tradition of blending technical fabrics and modern innovation with tried-and-true silhouettes — if you read the blog, you’ll recognize the Western Rise Evolution Pants and the Western Rise AirLight Shirt, for starters. Luckily, the Western Rise AirLoft Shirt Jacket carries forward the same blend of technical performance and cool style, starting with the water-resistant, four-way stretch fabric, ideal for all your winter adventures when layered atop a thermal shirt or a classic flannel. But wait… there’s more! Much more, folks.

It’s the four-way stretch fabric and durable construction that sets this shirt jacket apart from the pack.
One of the best shirt jackets for men, as you might expect, breaks out all the proper bells and whistles when it comes to the performance you need in cold weather. This shirt jacket is made to regulate your temperature and features more streamlined insulation than other bulkier shirt jackets or parkas (I should know — I’ve been testing it out, courtesy of the brand!).
The Western Rise AirLoft Shirt Jacket gets technical with the use of Toray’s 40g 3DeFX+® hollow-core, 4-way stretch insulation, an in-depth way of saying this insulation is like no other on the market. Three zip pockets, including two zip pockets at the hip, provide space for your everyday carry essentials, and the clean fit means this shirt jacket won’t slow you down on or off the trail. Throw it on atop a tee when you need to clean up for a Zoom call, or pair it with a rugged flannel shirt for even more warmth. However you slice it, the Western Rise AirLoft Shirt Jacket is your new favorite winter layer.
