OUR MISSION TO OUR CUSTOMERS
We always say that we are small enough to ‘actually’ listen to our customers, yet big enough to make an impact.
We constantly strive to seek our end users’ feedback, listen to their ideas and concerns, innovate new fabrics based on that feedback, and implement those changes.
We answered our customer’s demands to create new products to meet Non-FR requirements when back in the States (CONUS). One of those products that came to fruition is the Waypoint™ Softshell Jacket.
MASSIF® WAYPOINT™ SOFTSHELL JACKET OVERVIEW
Our Waypoint™ Softshell Jacket is designed with three layers of durable materials to ensure maximum protection.
The interior is made of a soft, lightweight fleece that ensures you remain warm and comfortable in cold temperatures.
This softshell jacket also includes convenient features such as spacious pockets for personal items, as well as oversized dual zippers to accommodate a sidearm and allow the user to control the airflow when active.
Its durable construction can withstand harsh weather conditions, making it ideal for the USAF Security Forces that protect our Air Force bases located within the United States, the loadmasters preparing cargo to go onto a transport aircraft, and really any military personnel stationed within the US that need a jacket to protect them from whatever mother nature throws at them.
MASSIF® WAYPOINT™ SOFTSHELL JACKET FEATURES
MATERIAL AND CONSTRUCTION
The Waypoint™ Softshell Jacket garment is made of a proprietary 4-way stretch Massif® 3-Layer laminate fabric featuring WINDSTOPPER® technology by GORE-TEX® LABS. Layered between a durable nylon face and soft fleece backer, this technology provides great weather protection with a very breathable, highly water resistant, and 100% windproof barrier.
The first layer is a lightweight nylon knit fabric. The knit construction allows the fabric to stretch and conform to the body, unlike a typical woven fabric. This extremely durable, highly breathable layer is totally windproof and provides excellent water resistance.
The second layer, is a highly water-resistant, 100% windproof, and very breathable membrane that eliminates windchill and allows sweat vapor to escape, helping to keep you comfortable and dry.
The third layer is Surgent fleece designed for comfort and warmth.
BREATHABILITY, VENTILATION, AND WARMTH
The Waypoint™ Softshell Jacket is considered a cold weather jacket, but it goes much deeper than that.
Massif® does not specify a temperature rating for this soft shell jacket, or any of their garments, since that number can differ depending on layering, activity level, and individual preference.
It’s not uncommon to see servicemembers wearing multiple garments to achieve what the Waypoint™ Softshell Jacket does itself.
For example, many have worn a fleece layer for warmth and then thrown on a hard shell to keep the wind and water out. While that may work, it’s not a long-term solution and can lead to other issues such as moisture buildup from sweating.
The Waypoint™ Softshell Jacket combines all that into one garment and then adds breathability, comfort, and the ability to be mobile.
The two-way zippers found on the Waypoint™ Softshell Jacket not only provides quick access to your sidearm, but doubles as ventilation as well. The wearer has the ability to dump excess body heat while on the move, giving you control over your microclimate, comfort, and mission success.
FIT AND COMFORT
The fit of the Waypoint™ Softshell Jacket is a standard fit with stretchability for an increased range of motion.
BOTTOM LINE
The Massif® Waypoint™ Softshell Jacket stands out as the ultimate choice for any military personnel stationed within the United States that requires protection from the elements without hindering comfort and performance.
Its superior features, including water resistance, durability, breathability, and comfort, make it a must-have for anyone who values high-quality gear.
Investing in the Waypoint™ Softshell Jacket is a wise decision that will pay dividends for years to come.
