Musto MPX Jacket - review

“You don’t realise how much you rely on your gear until the weather turns."

Offshore sailor Lee Condell trusts the Musto MPX Jacket to deliver – race after race, mile after mile.

"I’ve worn a lot of wet weather gear over the years, and the Musto MPX Jacket is hands down the one I reach for when I know I’ll be pushing through tough conditions. Whether I’m racing across Bass Strait shorthanded or cruising up the coast, it’s the only jacket that consistently keeps me dry and protected without feeling like I’m wrapped in a tarpaulin.

What I love about the MPX is that it’s properly engineered for sailors. The high collar, the adjustable hood, the way it seals at the cuffs - everything’s designed to keep water out and let you move. It's robust enough for offshore but light and flexible enough for active racing. And when you're wet, cold, and sleep-deprived, not having to think about your gear failing is a big deal.

I’ve trusted this jacket across hundreds of ocean miles, and it’s never let me down. If you’re serious about your sailing, this is the jacket to back."
