ABlochl Waterproof Hardshell Jacket Alpha Multicam

When you’re out and about in wet, windy conditions, you don’t want to compromise. The ABlochl Waterproof Hardshell Jacket Alpha Multicam has been designed as a high-quality outer layer that offers complete protection against rain and wind, without compromising on breathability or freedom of movement. This jacket has been specifically designed for intensive use during airsoft, milsim and outdoor activities, where reliability is not a luxury but a necessity.

Usage scenarios

This hardshell really comes into its own during long skirmishes, milsim events and outdoor operations where the weather is unpredictable. Think of rainy woodland areas, open terrain with strong winds, or cold conditions where your body cools down quickly.

You wear this jacket as an outer layer over a combat shirt or mid-layer. It’s less essential in CQB situations, but in outdoor scenarios you’ll immediately notice the difference when the weather changes. Especially during long patrols or when stationary, such as in overwatch positions, your body temperature remains stable and you stay dry.

Materials and techniques

The jacket is constructed from a high-performance hardshell with a water column rating of 20,000 mm, meaning that even heavy rain stands no chance of getting through. At the same time, a breathable membrane with a moisture vapour transmission rate of 15,000 g/m²/24h ensures that moisture is wicked away from the inside.

All seams are fully taped, which is essential for prolonged exposure to rain. The waterproof YKK zips ensure extra reliability, a feature often found in premium brands such as UF PRO and Helikon-Tex.

The lightweight stretch fabric gives you plenty of freedom of movement, even when you’re fully kitted out with a plate carrier or chest rig. Ventilation zips under the arms and mesh pockets actively help regulate your body temperature.

The Multicam version fits seamlessly into modern loadouts and provides effective camouflage in both wooded and open environments.

Practical experience

In practice, we find that many players underestimate the impact rain has on their performance. Wet clothing not only causes discomfort, but also leads to a faster loss of energy.

During long-running milsim events, we’ve noticed that players wearing a high-quality hardshell like this one stay operational for longer. Particularly when the intensity varies – such as when sprinting is followed by static observation – you’ll find that breathability is crucial.

Many players find that cheap raincoats tend to get stuffy. With this jacket, the climate inside remains stable, even during vigorous activity.

Who it is / isn't suitable for

This jacket is ideal for players and users who are active in changeable or adverse weather conditions. This includes milsim players, outdoor airsoft teams, bushcraft enthusiasts and professionals who rely on their equipment.

Less suitable for pure CQB use or hot summer days when maximum ventilation is more important than protection from the elements.

Why choose this product?

The ABlochl Waterproof Hardshell Jacket Alpha stands out thanks to its combination of military functionality and high-quality outdoor technology. Whilst many jackets are either waterproof or breathable, this jacket offers both without compromise.

For players investing in a full loadout, this is an essential piece of kit. It makes the difference between having to call it a day due to bad weather or continuing to perform in all conditions.
