The Wind Cheater utilizes a Duro Ambush coating that has been brushed on which allows it to breathe like a T-Shirt. The Wind Cheater has also been designed to dry quickly. A standard cuff tab and an extra-large bicep pocket are found on each sleeve and zippers under each arm (pit zips) allow for massive airflow when desired. Finally, the Wind Cheater features bungee/barrel lock adjustments for the hood, collar, and tail.
The Wind Cheater is “true to fit”, your T shirt size is your jacket size.
It’s currently available in ranger green, coyote, multicam, manatee grey and black.

This is a great wind/water shell for use over layers, and combat shirts. All of the features are very well thought out and designed. The material is very tough, yet breathable, and does what it’s intended regarding shitty weather.
