Since 1994 Deproc Active develop outdoor gear and accessories for people who attach great importance to quality, functionality and sophisticated details. Their goal is to defy wind and weather no matter what purpose. In their head office in Marienberg (Erz Mountains, Saxony, Germany) they are developing and testing their products until series-production readiness. As outdoor specialists they know what matters. Quality and fit and a fair price are in the foreground for them.

Their success is based on the constant further development of their products and their committed and motivated employees. Since 2005 they intensely concentrate on over- and special sizes up to 10 XL. Nowadays, even in large sizes no one has to forego sporty functional outdoor- and leasure gear. The materials and the cut don't just have to satisfy the special requirements of the wearing comfort and functionality, but has to also conjure an optical slim curve in order for their customers to feel well doing any leasure- and outdoor activity."

Review: I am very happy with my DEPROC Active NIGEL PEAK Lady Softshell-Jacket. It is a very comfortable to wear summer jacket. In summer it keeps you dry from rain and warm from the wind without getting too warm. Thus, it is very comfortable to wear in warmer temperatures. I especially like that the Jacket has two zipper pockets as I always prefer those. Furthermore, I think the smartly attached reflectors on the sleeves, waistline and back are great. So far I did not own a Softshelljacket and I am very satisfied with the material. It feels very nice, is wind- and water repellent and keeps away dirt very well. Moreover, Rocky's hair virtually not attaches at all on the Softshell material which usually attach to literally everything. This is of course a plus for dog owners. Additionally, I like that the hood is removable. I personally prefer to wear Jackets without a hood, but I like that in an emergancy I can quickly and easily attach the hood. I did have Jackets before whose hood were really difficult to reattach to, but with the NIGEL PEAK the reattachement of the hood is very easy via zipper and two press buttons!
Overall, I am more than happy with my DEPROC Active NIGEL PEAK Lady Softshell-Jacket. Especially for dog owners it is very suitable as it is water- and wind repellent, it is light in weight and not too warm for summer and it offers security in the darkness due to it's reflectors. In Addition dog hair does virtually not at all attach to the Jacket.
Thus, the NIGEL PEAK is at the moment my favourite summer Jacket!
