Summer is finally within reaching distance, but the Wild Atlantic weather can still be pretty unpredictable.
So the key to success.... layering.
Our Outwesters are everyone from fearless adventurers, to busy mums and dads, solo explorers and happy hikers. But one thing they all have in common... the right clothing.
We like to be prepared when facing the elements and we know you do too. Time to hang up your bulky winter coat and instead choose multiple, thinner layers when adapting to transitional weather on the Emerald Isle.
Take a look at our Outwest checklist to nail your outdoor adventure no matter what the forecast. After all, as we always say, we shouldn't have to wait for the sunny days to get out exploring!
The Ultimate Outwest Checklist:
1. THE IRISH SUMMER LONG SLEEVES
Our Irish Summer Long Sleeves are the perfect item for when it is too cold for a t-shirt but too warm for a jumper. A dilemma we get caught in a lot here in Ireland! Made from organic cotton, this is our must-have item for any adventure.
2. THE HALF ZIP
A new season means the arrival of the much awaited half zips which are sooo cosy! Perfect over a light t-shirt for those mixed weather days, which we know only too well in Ireland this time of year.
3. THE FARRAIGE FLEECE
This 350g/m fleece with a cotton jersey interlining will be your go-to for warming up post sea dip or for those family beach walks with the dog.
4. THE GILET
Insulated, water-repellent and with a quilted design, our Outwest Gilet is great for everyday use! Team with a long sleeve or crew neck, this Gilet will be a year-round staple in your adventure wardrobe.
