I purchased a repro Windjacke from Spearhead this past summer. They have changed the fabric to the same one they use on their repro anoraks. A positive change fron the old fabric. It is certainly more windproof since it appears to be made from a harder cotton twill rather than just a soft cotton.mario33 wrote:I have Speaarhead windjacke at home. Sorry to burst your bubble but its just not good enough.
The most annoying thing is the textile. Its way too soft and not at all windproof. Just a simple cotton twill... If you carefully look you may find that all 'creases' are soft and 'flowing' instead of keeping stiff as in windproof material.
The cuffs still only have one button instead of two but that can be corrected without too much effort.
