Driclime windshirt vs. jacket

[Elger]

There is $15 difference between these two so there must be some physical differences but I can't figure out what it is. I don't own either so I have no personal experience, but I plan to buy one of them as soon as I can figure out what is different about them. Anyone know?

The fabrics are the same, in and out. The cut is different on the sleeves, and so the sleeves fit and move a little differently. The bodies are the same size. The "Original DriClime Windshirt" has horizontal chest pocket, mesh pit vents, no side (hand) pockets, no waist drawstring, cut with a little tail and side slits like a tennis shirt. The "DriClime Jacket" has vertical chest pocket, no pit vents, side pockets, drawstring.

The ion appears to be the same as the original but with a hood and no driclime lining, but I did not compare it in person.

I like that attitude, all I can say is I love my DC, the shell is mist proof and wt. to warmth ratio looked great to me. I have since forgot that formula but still love the jacket.

I've used this product or a variation for years. It is by far my most versatile garment and one I use all year. You'll love it!
