Rain Outside, Fleece Inside, One Jacket
It's 41 degrees and spitting rain, and you're standing at the door doing math.
Warm coat that soaks, or rain shell that leaves you cold.
Shieldfern skips the layering: the softshell outer and the fleece lining are one piece, not two.
Wind and light rain stay out.
You stay warm, you stay moving, and you're out the door in one motion.
Sleeves hit 23.5 to 26 inches — long enough to cover the wrist
✓ One jacket does the work of two
The stretch softshell blocks wind and light rain on the outside. The fleece lining handles the warmth on the inside. No fleece-plus-shell juggling, no extra 5 minutes at the door.
✓ Seal out the cold at three points
Cinch the hood, close the hook-and-loop cuffs, pull the hem drawcord. Three adjustments and the wind has nowhere to sneak in.
✓ Move like you're not wearing a coat
Stretch softshell gives when you reach for the leash, the stroller, or the car door. No stiff, crinkly shell fighting your arms.
✓ Room to layer without looking bulky
The relaxed outdoor cut fits a hoodie or fleece underneath and still hangs clean. Wears fine on the trail and at school pickup.

Frequently asked questions
Can I wear this in heavy rain?
It's built for wind and light rain — a walk in a drizzle or a wet errand is no problem. For a sustained downpour, you'll want a dedicated hard shell over it.
Do the cuffs close tight enough to keep wind out?
Yes. The hook-and-loop cuffs pull snug around your wrist and hold there, so cold air can't travel up your sleeve.
Does the hood stay up when it's windy?
The hood has a drawcord you can cinch down. Once it's tightened, it stays put instead of blowing back off your head.
Can I put it in the dryer?
Skip the dryer. High heat can damage the shell's weather-resistant finish, so hang it up instead — it dries fast.

Every product page has a fit finder next to the size selector — three questions, one recommendation, a few seconds. These charts are for anyone who would rather read the numbers.
How to measure
- Bust / chest. Around the fullest part, tape level, arms relaxed at your sides.
- Waist. Around the narrowest part of your torso, usually just above the navel.
- Hips. Around the fullest part, roughly 8 in below the waist.
- Inseam. From the crotch seam to the floor, in the shoes you'll wear the trousers with.
Measure over the underwear you'd normally wear, not over clothing. Keep the tape snug but not tight.

How our pieces are cut
- Dresses are cut true to size. If you are between sizes, take the smaller one — most of our dresses have ease through the waist.
- Coats and jackets are cut with room for a knit underneath. Take your usual size; size up only if you layer heavily.
- Knitwear is relaxed by design. Between sizes, take the smaller one unless you want an oversized look.
- Trousers and jeans run true to size. Between sizes, take the larger one.
- Shoes run true to size. If you have a wide foot, take half a size up.
