I picked five lightweight jumpers that will lightly block the early autumn breeze. There are INSILENCE's 립스탑 트래블 후디드 점퍼 GREY and OLIVE, which are easy to throw on comfortably, 크리즈 볼륨 점퍼 BLACK, featuring a distinctive wrinkled texture, and MARGESHERWOOD's LIGHTWEIGHT PADDED JUMPER_black with a thin padded feel. And I also added INSILENCE's 라이트웨이트 DTP 점퍼 LIGHT BEIGE, which features a delicate pattern, to the list. Lightweight jumpers these days don't just stop at being athletic wear that simply blocks the wind; they tend to be made with subtle textures or graphics to naturally cross over between daily life and outdoor outings.
The DTP in the name stands for digital textile printing. While traditional screen printing used massive amounts of water and dye due to its complex process and suffered serious wastewater issues, DTP directly sprays computer designs onto fabric, dramatically reducing water use and environmental waste. Because it can accurately reproduce gradients or photographic images without color limitations, lightweight outdoor garments featuring detailed natural graphics on high-density functional nylon fabric with windproof properties have newly emerged.
This jumper also has clear colors neatly set without smudging over thin, lightweight nylon. Shall we narrow down the list further to match your purpose of weekend outings or running? You can look at only those with hoods first, filter under KRW 150,000, or pick only nylon materials.
↳ Only those with hoods
I picked 5 hooded outerwear pieces: MARGESHERWOOD's lightweight padded jumpers, a bright lime windbreaker, and 2 soft blouson jackets from Low Tide. These days, beyond their original use of avoiding bad weather, hoods are more often used as silhouette devices that snugly wrap the neckline or let the shoulder line fall naturally when zipped all the way up.
The small cylindrical cord locks attached to hoods or jacket hems originated from the hands of legendary outdoor gear designer Jerry Cunningham. Serving in a mountain division during World War 2, he saw mountaineers struggle to tie and untie knots while wearing thick winter gloves in freezing cold, and devised a spring-loaded clamp so cords could be tightened with one hand without taking off gloves. Initially made of metal, they rusted or wore away the cords, but after undergoing an improved patent with a plastic cylinder structure in the 1980s, they settled into today's lightweight and convenient form.
With these garments too, when the wind turns cold, pulling the cords to cinch them will let you immediately feel the usefulness of that small accessory. Shall we look at the lightweight padded jackets with thin quilted batting first, or shall I narrow it down for you with rustling windbreakers or a budget within KRW 200,000?

↳ As lightweight padding
For lightweight padding, I picked two styles from MARGESHERWOOD: LIGHTWEIGHT PADDED JUMPER in black and pink. Lightweight padded jumpers coming out these days do not stop at being simple cold-weather outerwear, but lean heavily toward bringing out a fresh style and silhouette like transitional jackets.
In 1937, designer Charles James drew inspiration from the quilting method of eiderdown quilts to create an evening quilted jacket in white satin. Regarding this garment, which meticulously reduced bulk around the neckline and armholes so movement would not be hindered, painter Salvador Dalí marveled at it, calling it the first soft sculpture. It was the beginning of stripping away the clumsiness of cold-weather padded clothing and elevating padding to the realm of couture fashion.
The MARGESHERWOOD jumpers on the list also combine lightly quilted volume with clean lines, matching neatly anywhere. Between calm black and bright pink, which one shall we look at first?
