Columbia 209047 Men's Ascender™ II Soft Shell Vest – 100% Polyester Nexgen Contour | Omni-Shield™

The Columbia 209047 Ascender™ II Soft Shell Vest is a core-warming layer built for active outdoor use and corporate uniform programs that need wind and water resistance without the bulk of a full jacket.

Constructed from 100% polyester Nexgen Contour soft shell with a fleece-bonded interior lining, the vest provides warmth and flexibility in a compact, packable silhouette.

Omni-Shield™ technology repels water and resists staining by preventing liquids from absorbing into the fabric's fast-drying yarns — keeping the wearer dry during light precipitation and providing a practical advantage in messy jobsite conditions.

Comfort stretch allows the soft shell to move with the wearer during active tasks without restricting arm movement.

The water- and wind-resistant construction provides a meaningful barrier against outdoor elements without the stiffness of traditional hard shell materials.

A regular fit sits cleanly over a base layer or mid-layer without being overly boxy.

An abrasion-resistant chin guard protects the zipper hardware and fabric at the neckline during daily use.

Zippered chest and hand pockets provide secure storage.

Extended zipper pulls make the vest operable while wearing work gloves.

A drawcord adjustable hem seals out wind at the bottom.

Embroidered Columbia branding on the left chest is clean and professional.

A woven label is included.

Sizes run S–3XL.
