Buy NowTechnical construction for a performance fabric with military pedigree.
Built on years of outerwear experience, we set out to create something different: a technical shell that protects without looking or feeling like plastic. Our goal was to create a garment that feels comfortable to wear in the city and in the woods.
Born from the heritage of performance garments and grounded in the natural resilience of Ventile® cotton, the Ventile Shell Jacket is our step toward a modern, weatherproof piece of outerwear that's minimal, deliberate, and quietly capable.
Ventile® is a performance fabric made entirely from natural fibers. Its densely woven structure allows the cotton to swell when wet, sealing out moisture and maintaining weatherproof protection without relying on synthetics. It’s technical by nature, not by plastics. The silhouette is streamlined and intentional, cut to move with you.
The jacket is unlined with a fully-taped construction. Seam taping is a detailed process, sealing every seam for additional protection from the elements. Two side-entry zip pockets sit beneath deep, flap-protected pockets. Italian gold-plated snaps and a rugged two-way zipper refine the look and elevate the everyday. Every element has purpose: the collar stance, the bungee-adjustable hood, the articulated sleeves, the shaped hem. All designed for real weather and real life.
The Ventile Shell Jacket is proudly made in New Jersey at Better Team USA, our factory partner for the better part of a decade, who has helped to define our approach to premium American outerwear.
