The Vandal was eager to get back to the basics of those <strong>fleece jacket<\/strong>, and made it again '<strong>outdoor<\/strong>'. With this fashionable coat, you can pick up the kids from school, but still pull out especially <strong style=\"font-family: inherit;font-size: 1.25rem\">into nature<\/strong>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\n\n\n<h3 style=\"text-transform: none;\">Commuting and bikepacking<\/h3>\n<p>Most of The Vandal's designs start from the needs of the cyclist. As cyclists and adventurers, we felt the need for a nice jacket that allows us to ride through all kinds of weather. A jacket warm enough to brave the Belgian weather during the morning commute to work, and sturdy enough to bikepack for weeks in the mountains.<\/p>\n<p><em>\"Three-time world cyclocross champion Zden\u011bk \u0160tybar has tested and approved the Outdoor Fleece Jacket. Then you know the jacket can take a beating...\"<\/em><\/p>\n<p>A number of extensive testing phases resulted in the final jacket. It is one of our favorite pieces ever, thanks to the combination of technical materials with The Vandal vibe.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thevandal.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Stybar-foto-2-708x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"708\" height=\"1024\" \/><br \/><br \/><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-transform: none;\">Technical and trendy<\/h3>\n<p>We made the upper from the particularly insulating material \"softgel. Softgel is breathable yet water repellent. The rest of the exterior is made of high-quality sherpa fleece in black or white, but on the inside the softgel runs all the way through. This makes the jacket completely windproof. The zippers are also waterproof, of course, and with two front pockets, you'll always have your essentials within easy reach. The hidden pocket at the back is a nod to the traditional cycling jerseys that The Vandal loves so much.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-transform: none;\">New outdoor collection<\/h3>\n<p>The\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.thevandal.be\/en\/shop\/hw23-24\/outdoor-fleece-jacket\/\">fleece jacket<\/a>\u00a0blows along with the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.thevandal.be\/en\/shop\/hw23-24\/fleece-sweater\/\">fleece sweater<\/a>\u00a0a breath of fresh air for The Vandal's outdoor collection.
