Burke Marine has released its latest offering in technical clothing - the Sprint Jacket.

Forming part of their technical wet weather clothing range, this jacket has all the features and specs you would normally associate with a higher end product but without the price tag.

This CB10 Breathable Soft lightweight jacket keeps you dry by transferring condensation through the fabric but is 100% waterproof, windproof and durable. The combination of internal Dartex cuffs and adjustable outer cuffs stop water ingress at the sleeves and the rentex mesh collar is fast drying.

They have added the essential high visibility peaked hood for safety. Made from our CB10 Evolution fabric its other features include Reflective striping on Chest, sleeve and back, secure internal zipped pocket, 100% waterproof taped seams, two patched front pockets with waterproof zips, Internal Dartex cuff, adjustable hem and Adjustable touch and close outer cuffs.
