Designed for women looking to combine urban style with everyday functionality, the Parajumpers EKA Woman jacket is part of the Shade Shell series from the Summer 2026 collection. Its oversized silhouette and slightly translucent, iridescent crinkled nylon taffeta give it an instantly recognizable visual identity, a far cry from the usual sportswear jacket styles. Lightweight and windproof, it’s equally suited to the demands of a day in the city and the unpredictable weather of summer.

The Parajumpers EKA Woman Jacket: A Signature Fabric at the Heart of the Design

The polyurethane-coated nylon taffeta, made of 100% polyamide, is at the heart of this jacket’s aesthetic and technical design. This coating gives the fabric remarkable lightness while providing effective wind resistance and good breathability during temperature fluctuations. The iridescent, crinkled effect—characteristic of the Shade Shell series—plays with the light and gives the piece a visual appearance that shifts depending on the viewing angle. The oversized fit accentuates this contemporary design and offers unrestricted freedom of movement.

Construction details designed for comfort and practicality

The drawcord-adjustable hood allows you to tailor protection to the conditions, while the two-way front zipper makes it easy to open the jacket and adjust ventilation as needed. The ribbed cuffs and elastic hem provide a discreet seal that prevents unwanted drafts. Underarm ventilation rounds out the design by promoting heat dissipation during active movement. For storage, two exterior pockets and an interior mesh pocket provide practical organization for everyday use.

Parajumpers Finishes and Authenticity

Several details set this jacket apart from generic items on the market. The iconic yellow ribbon at the collar closure and the Parajumpers patch on the sleeve are signature hallmarks of the brand, founded in Italy in 2006 and inspired by the world of Alaskan rescue teams. Each jacket also features a 12-digit CLG code on its authenticity label, which can be verified via the Certilogo system, ensuring the garment’s traceability. Care is simple: gentle wash at 30°, no tumble drying or ironing.
