Warmth & Comfort

The Element 5/4 features Hot_Stuff 2.0 thermal lining on the back and torso, helping to retain heat and reduce wind chill during long sessions in cold conditions.

In high-movement areas, the Silk_Stuff inner lining across the chest, shoulders and arms provides a soft feel while improving stretch and comfort.
