Cotopaxi Teca Half-Zip Women's Windbreaker

Windy ridge hikes and breezy bike rides are where the Cotopaxi Teca Half-Zip Women's Windbreaker shines. This lightweight, packable half-zip pullover is made from repurposed polyester, which means every colorway is a one-of-a-kind, limited-edition mix. A water-repellent finish and wind-resistant fabric add just enough protection for changeable shoulder-season weather.

Why we like it:

Every Teca is made from leftover fabric, so no two colorways are quite the same, and the bright, mismatched panels are a big part of the fun. It also stuffs into its own pocket for travel.

Features and Functions:

Two repurposed fabrics make up the shell: a 100 percent repurposed polyester taffeta and a repurposed polyester ripstop, both with a DWR finish and a light PU backer for added weather resistance. A kangaroo hand pocket offers easy storage, and the front zip pocket doubles as a stuff sack so the jacket packs into itself. Elastic binding at the hood, cuffs, and hem seals out wind, and a back panel vent helps with airflow.

Fit and Sizing:

As a half-zip pullover, the Teca slides on over a tee in sizes XS through XL. Elastic binding at the hood, cuffs, and hem keeps it close against the wind.

Bottom Line:

Stash the Teca in a daypack and forget about it until the wind kicks up. It's an easy, colorful layer for hiking, biking, and travel.
