There is a zip on the inside of the jacket for attaching Didriksons’ Monte fleece jacket, which serves as a warm extra layer, meaning this jacket can be used all year round. Two zipped front pockets. Rocket has a zip with a protective storm flap and a detachable hood with snap fasteners. Elasticated cuffs and an adjustable drawstring hem. Reflectors at the cuffs and the Didriksons name and logo in reflective print.

This garment is waterproof.Below is a simple summary of which garments are waterproof based on a three-level scale. We have formulated our waterproofness scale based on the waterproofness of the material, whether the garment has taped or welded seams, and how the garment is constructed.
Not waterproof - This garment is not waterproof and will not repel rain.
Water-repellent - This garment is water-repellent and will repel light rain for a short length of time. Waterproof - This garment has a water column between 5,000-10,000mm and is fully waterproof, the material as well as the construction.
Shell - This is a shell garment and has no insulating properties.Below is a simple summary of which garments have insulating properties. The warmth scale is based on a number of factors such as weight of padding, type of padding, length, and construction of the garment.
Remember that everyone experiences heat differently and some people feel the cold more than others. This scale is intended to provide a pointer regarding how warm a garment is.
Shell - This is a shell garment and has no insulating properties.
Warm - This garment is warm and has insulating properties with a padding level between 100-140 g/m².
Extra warm - This garment is extra warm and has highly insulating properties with a padding level between 160-300 g/m².
Breathability - This garment has a breathability level between 4,000-10,000 g/m²/24h and is made with the ability to transport water vapour through the fabric.Below is a simple summary of the breathability of our garments.
No breathability - This garment has a low capacity for transporting moisture in the form of water vapour, which means that you may experience a damp, clammy feeling if you plan to wear the garment for any significant level of physical activity. Breathability - This garment has a breathability level between 4,000-10,000 g/m²/24h and is made with the ability to transport water vapour through the fabric.
Mechanical breathability - This garment offers mechanical breathability, which means that we have incorporated one or more vents into the garment so that air can pass through. These vents are carefully positioned, so that water cannot penetrate the garment.
This garment is very hard-wearing.Below is a simple summary of the durability of our outerwear. How hard-wearing a garment is is based on the material’s durability, texture, and extra reinforcement. The durability is tested by rubbing the garment with sandpaper.
Hard-wearing - This garment is hard-wearing in relation to the material it is made from. Very hard-wearing - This garment is made from a hard-wearing material.
Extremely hard-wearing - This garment is made from a strong, hard-wearing material with extra reinforcement in exposed areas.
