Layering: How to upgrade your Kapten & Son jacket

Layering means wearing several layers of clothing on top of one another. Each layer has a different purpose: the Top Layer is usually a rain jacket that protects you from wind and rain. The inner layers keep you warm and wick away sweat. This layering system helps you stay prepared for any weather.

Kapten & Son jackets with the “3in1 system” can be combined with one another. You pair an outer layer, such as our Heavy Rain Jacket, with an inner layer, such as our Light Fleece Jacket. To combine the two layers, put on your fleece jacket first, then your rain jacket over it. Secure the two jackets using the loops with press studs at the cuffs and collar, as well as the internal zips. This keeps both layers firmly connected.

Other upgrade options are available too. Simply combine an outer layer with an inner layer. You’ll find an overview of all the layers above.

Our jacket sets already include an outer and an inner jacket. You can recognise the sets by “3in1” in the product name, as with our rain and fleece combination: Everyday 3in1 Rain Jacket. Both jackets are also available to buy separately. Each product page explains which jackets make up your set.

3in1 means you can create three looks with your jacket:

1. Wear the outer layer on its own.

2. Wear the inner layer on its own.

3. Wear both layers combined.

One jacket gives you three ways to wear it – that’s 3in1.

Yes. With a hydrostatic head rating of 10,000 mm, our rain jackets reliably keep the rain out. Higher ratings are only needed for demanding outdoor activities and severe weather.
