Rains Fleece Zip Jacket Bark
Heavy fleece: what does that mean?
Fleece comes in thin and thick versions. Rains goes for the heavy option here: the jacket weighs 820 grams, and you feel that as soon as you pick it up. The pile on the outside is dense and short, so the jacket holds its shape and doesn’t hang limply over your shoulders. Thick fleece traps air, and that layer of air between you and the outside world does the insulating work.
What can you do with that two-way zipper?
The front zipper opens from both ends. From the top for when you get warm, from the bottom when you’re sitting and the jacket pulls tight over your hips. The collar stands up and closes right up to your neck, with no hood behind it. The hem and cuffs have an elastic band, so no cold air gets in from below.
How does it fit?
Rains lists this model as a relaxed fit, with curved seam lines that give the sleeve room. In the photo you can see that in the wide shoulder and the slightly rounded sleeve. There’s room for a sweater or a hoodie underneath. If you’d rather wear it snug, check the Rains size guide before you order.
Bark: the color of wet bark
Bark is the dark brown shade from the Rains palette. It looks almost black in a dim room and only shows in daylight that there’s brown in it. The brand comes from Denmark and deliberately keeps its colors understated. Machine wash at 30°C, no tumble drying and no ironing.
We always lift this fleece for a moment when someone asks about it: 820 grams feels different from the thin fleeces you’re used to. Try it on with the sweater underneath that you’d actually wear with it, and you’ll know enough.
Are you caught between two jackets in March and October
Do you wear a jacket over your sweater and want something warm in between
Do you sit outside in the evening as it cools down
Do you want a zip-up that keeps its shape on the coat rack
If you’re heading out in the rain, fleece won’t keep water out; wear a rain jacket over it.
If you want a thin layer under a jacket, this heavy fleece is too thick; choose a light midlayer.
Take your usual size: Rains lists this model as a relaxed fit.
