GOREWEAR Everyday Mid 1/4-Zip Jacket - Women's Amethyst Grey, S/4-6

"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""I've been reaching for the GOREWEAR Everyday Mid 1/4-Zip Jacket on cool morning runs where I can't decide between a shell and a base layer, and it solves that problem completely on its own. The textured 3D backer wicks moisture without any of the clammy feeling you get from standard midlayers, and the quarter zip lets me regulate temperature precisely enough that I rarely need anything over it.""Cool weather running requires a layer that can make decisions as conditions change, and the GOREWEAR Everyday Mid 1/4-Zip Jacket is built for exactly that role. Constructed from a stretchy midweight knit fabric made with 91% recycled polyester, it sits in the sweet spot between a base layer and a full jacket, offering light thermal protection and genuine breathability in a single versatile piece. GOREWEAR gave the fabric a textured 3D backer that wicks moisture and reduces wet-cling so comfort holds steady across a wide range of effort levels and temperatures. The quarter-zip construction is the key to the jacket's adaptability. Unzip when the pace climbs and heat builds, zip back up when the wind picks up or the temperature drops on a long descent. It works equally well as a standalone layer on moderate days and as a warm midlayer under a shell when conditions turn serious. Reflective details handle visibility through the low-light hours that define so many cool weather running sessions, and the stretch construction moves freely enough that layering never feels restrictive."
