As December approaches, snow news continues nationwide, and anticipation for snow mountain climbing is rising. Since the risk of hypothermia increases in winter when temperatures are low and winds are strong, the importance of clothing preparation is higher than in other seasons. This time, we will look at the outerwear category that is worn most externally in the 'layering system'. In the past, winter outerwear was largely divided into hard shells and thermal jackets. About 20 years ago, a new category called soft shells emerged, and recently, the popularity of soft shells, which are practical as winter outerwear, is increasing domestically and internationally. The important role of shells is to protect our bodies from external weather changes. In the outdoor clothing category, to be classified as a shell, they must have at least one of the following functions: water repellent, waterproof, windproof, and moisture permeable. Both hard shells and soft shells have the same purpose of protecting our bodies, but the categories are divided based on the fabric and structure they are made with. Over the past 10 years, functional fabrics have developed and hybrid shells have been released, so the boundary between soft shells and hard shells is no longer as clear as it used to be, and many people are confused when choosing a product. That's why in this video, I will organize the main features and pros and cons of hard shells and soft shells based on various materials and explain them as clearly and easily as possible. Please watch this video until the end and continue a reasonable and practical outdoor life. ⏱ Time Stampe 00:00 Intro 01:37 Features and pros and cons of soft shells 04:36 Features and pros and cons of hard shells 08:01 Third option: 'Insulated shell (insulated jacket)' 08:47 Essential checklist before purchasing 11:35 Overall review ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ If you like this video, please like???? & subscribe????& click the notification ????. ???? ????
