HARKILA Aspire HWS Waterproof Jacket - Mens - Hunting Green

The Harkila Aspire HWS Jacket is a high-performance shooting jacket built for serious country sportsmen who demand reliable protection and field-ready functionality in all conditions. Designed with silent movement and rugged terrain in mind, this fully waterproof jacket features Härkila’s trusted HWS® (Härkila Weather System) membrane, engineered to keep you dry and shielded from the wind without compromising breathability.
