    Musto Sailing Jacket Men's BR3 Sport Blue

    Musto Sailing Jacket Men's BR3 Sport is made for active sailors who want to stay dry and agile without thick, stiff layers. The stretchy outer fabric works with the breathable, waterproof BR3 membrane to keep rain and spray out while allowing warmth and moisture out. The fit is sporty and moves with trimming, reefing and quick movement on deck; contoured sleeves and a light, supple material feel help. The hood is quickly adjustable and offers a clear view around the cockpit, the high collar shields wind when it gets colder, and the zipper runs smoothly with a sheltered seal against blow-in water. Cuffs and hem can be adjusted tightly to prevent splashing water from entering, while pockets in just the right places provide practical storage space for cold hands or a knife and tape.

    On Dutch lakes and along the coast, you especially notice how controlled the balance is between protection and ventilation. When actively steering or hoisting you lose excess heat, but in a gust of wind or downpour the jacket keeps out water and cold and your midlayer stays dry. The fabric feels solid, can withstand frequent use and washes out easily after salt water, maintaining performance even after a season of intensive sailing. Combine the BR3 Sport with a technical baselayer and a warm midlayer for cold days, or wear it solo in mild conditions; either way, freedom of movement remains great and protection reliable. This is no-frills sailing apparel designed to simply work when you need it: comfortable, practical and ready for changeable weather. A sturdy and reliable choice for those who want carefree enjoyment on the water.

      Musto

      Keith Musto arrived in Tokyo as an unlikely choice for the British sailing team at the 1964 Olympic Games. He was considerably too light and too small for the heavy Flying Dutchman boat in which he competed. Keith and his teammate, Tony Morgan, quickly came to the conclusion that their only chance of winning gold was to be fitter than their opponents. So they did the impossible. Daily training, including on Christmas Day, took place. Fellow competitors regarded their training as unsporting, but a new type of sailor was emerging. They were athletes.

      Keith Musto recalls the words: “Every year we sailed in Guernsey sweaters and old flannel trousers. You got wet and you accepted it. We were aware that this was a problem that was going to be solved.”

      After conquering the sailing world and winning silver in Tokyo (having missed gold by “nanoseconds”), he began manufacturing innovative technical sailing clothing.

      A dilapidated Second World War prisoner-of-war hut in Essex marked the beginning of everything. Keith started sailing with Edward Hyde, under the name Musto & Hyde Sails. Keith soon turned his attention to manufacturing technical sailing clothing. He quickly taught himself all the fundamentals of garment making and paid his wife daily with a Mars bar to operate the machines and do all the typing.

      In 1980, Keith parted ways with Musto & Hyde. His team quickly developed into the technical manufacturer and wholesaler of the finest sailing equipment available. It was specialised clothing worn and recommended by the most acclaimed sailors in the world. Musto had arrived.
