Vertx ElementFlex Hardshell Jacket

Description 

The ElementFlex Hardshell is designed for high-output movement in unpredictable conditions, delivering full weather protection without the noise, stiffness, or heat buildup of traditional hard shells. Engineered with stretch, active cooling, and a low-profile fit, it moves naturally with you while staying out of the way when precision matters.
