I usually opt for a jacket while riding my motorbike in Saigon. The primary reason is to avoid having my clothes smell bad when I reach work or meetings. However, as time goes on, there are more reasons to choose the right jacket. In this discussion, I present to you a jacket packed with advanced technologies to make life more convenient and safer.Feature: Smoke Odor Repellent

Freshness Inside and Out, Folks!Feature: UV Protection
As we grow older, we learn about the harmful effects of UV rays and goodness, the scorching sun in Saigon. That's why UV protection has become a priority when selecting a jacket. Honestly, I never used to consider whether a jacket had UV protection or not. But when I walked into Uniqlo's store and saw the UV protection technology displayed, it seemed impressive, so I bought it.
Not waterproof. Gets wet in the rain.Feature: Foldable and can fit into a small hand-sized pouch
I've used this type many times before. I always have a puffer jacket that can be neatly folded into a small pouch about the size of two hands. Every time I go on a business trip, it's always in my backpack because I never know if the place I'm heading to will be colder than what I can endure. For a jacket that can be folded, it serves another purpose besides taking up less space. It traps the dust, smells, etc., that it accumulates while you're out and about inside a pouch rather than spreading the odor in your car trunk or backpack, affecting other items.
Very neat
Being able to neatly tuck it into a pouch also helps keep your belongings organized and clean, rather than stuffing a bulky jacket into your car trunk. Let me remind you all that cleanliness isn't just about having a clean soul but also living a clean life, paying attention to every detail. To me, living in filth is uncivilized.Easy and Quick Operation
Putting on this jacket is a breeze, quick and straightforward. The zipper has never jammed in the few months I've used it, whether putting it on or taking it off. Uniqlo isn't known for being an expensive brand, but their accessories like zippers are top-notch and well-designed, ensuring smooth use.

Comparing this to a cotton jacket I've worn before, this one seems to have some kind of layer or lacks small pores, so it doesn't hold onto dust and odors like cotton jackets do. Therefore, this can be seen as a plus point for a jacket that comes into contact with a lot of dust and odors.Tight and Quite Warm
