Halvarssons Vimo ladies jacket in black

The Vimo is a new-for-2021 laminated jacket that replaces the outgoing Walkyria. We were never huge fans of the Walkyria because it totally lacked scope for adjustment. It was often not particularly flattering. By contrast, the Vimo does have a lot of adjustability. The membrane is a Dryway two-layer membrane, which means that the Vimo is certainly comfortable to wear. The outer fabric also has a lovely soft, brushed feel to it. The jacket also has a Teflon coating for extra impermeability. There’s Hi-Art in the elbows and shoulders for added abrasion resistance. And Level 2 armour in the elbows and shoulders. Of course, the jacket also has a pocket for a back protector. You get two large vents on the chest and an open exhaust vent across the back. The removable, thermal lining comprises both Outlast and Thinsulate. The neck collar is removable. There’s also a zip to attach the jacket to the matching Wish Lady pant. The Vimo is AA certified under EN17092
