Autumn has turned sharper, and wardrobes are shifting fast as commuters weigh warmth, rain protection and price more carefully.
From Monday 20 October, Decathlon will roll out three lightweight quilted jackets across Spain for everyday wear. Prices begin at €19.99, sizes run XS to 2XL, and comfort ratings reach down to −5°C for colder snaps.
Three fresh picks for daily autumn duties: €19.99, €34.95 and €39.99, with size coverage from XS to 2XL.
What’s arriving and when
Decathlon stores nationwide, from Madrid and Barcelona to Jerez de la Frontera and Valencia, will stock three insulated layers suited to the season’s chill and drizzle. Online availability mirrors the shop rollout on Monday. The line-up blends water-repellent finishes, wind-blocking designs and practical cuts that work for commuting, city walks and weekend escapes.
| Model | Insulation weight | Comfort range | Shell fabric | Key features | Colours | Sizes | Price |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Forclaz MT50 | 100 g/m² synthetic wadding | 0°C to 10°C | Polyester with water‑repellent finish | Wind‑blocking design, lined, snug cuffs | Navy | XS–2XL | €19.99 |
| Forclaz MT100 | 125 g/m² synthetic wadding | 5°C to −5°C | Polyester with beading water‑repellent finish | Wind‑blocking design | Five colour options | XS–2XL | €39.99 |
| Siroko Tacca‑W | 320 g/m² Sorona Aura | High‑warmth insulation | Polyamide and polyester, ultralight handfeel | High neck, adjustable hood, 2 zipped hand pockets, 1 internal pocket, elastic cuffs | Black | XS–2XL | €34.95 (50% off) |
All three jackets use water‑repellent fabrics that bead light rain; they are not fully waterproof for persistent downpours.
The jackets, model by model
Forclaz MT50: the budget commuter pick
The MT50 keeps things simple and light. Its 100 g/m² synthetic fill suits brisk mornings between 0°C and 10°C. A polyester outer with a durable water‑repellent treatment helps rain drops roll off, while a wind‑blocking cut and snug cuffs blunt gusts on platforms and pavements. It comes in navy, covers sizes from XS to 2XL, and lands at €19.99, which undercuts many high‑street puffers without skimping on core comfort.
Forclaz MT100: extra warmth for early frosts
Stepping up the insulation to 125 g/m², the MT100 targets the shoulder between 5°C and −5°C. Think dawn dog walks, late‑evening football side‑lines and rural commutes where air bites harder. The shell again uses polyester with a beading finish plus a wind‑blocking build. Five colourways broaden styling options, while the same XS–2XL size run keeps fit accessible. At €39.99, it offers a noticeable warmth bump for a modest jump in spend.
Siroko Tacca‑W: high loft, packed with features
Spanish brand Siroko’s Tacca‑W piles on warmth with 320 g/m² Sorona Aura insulation, paired to a soft yet durable polyamide‑polyester fabric. The feature set targets daily practicality: a high neck for draughty mornings, an adjustable hood, two zipped hand pockets, a discreet internal pocket, and elastic cuffs that seal heat. It sells in black from XS to 2XL. With a 50% reduction, the price sits at €34.95 on launch, placing genuine high‑loft insulation within easy reach.
If you run warm, the MT50 will likely do. If you chill easily, the MT100 or Siroko will feel right.
Which one should you pick?
- For short commutes, busy city days and heated offices: choose the MT50 for 0–10°C starts without overheating indoors.
- For colder routes, rural stops and early frosts: the MT100’s 125 g/m² fill handles 5 to −5°C with less layering.
- For long waits, windy seafronts or late matches: the Siroko’s 320 g/m² loft keeps heat in when you stand still.
- If rain lingers: pack a light shell to wear over any of these in sustained showers.
- If you’re active: size for movement and consider venting via the front zip to avoid clamminess.
Fit, layering and care
Fit will decide how well each jacket performs. Aim for a close but comfortable cut across shoulders and chest, leaving room for a thin fleece or knit. Sleeves should cover the wrist bone, and the hem should meet your hips when you lift your arms. If you sit on trains or bikes, test the hem length in a seated position to keep lower back covered.
Layering makes these jackets more versatile. A moisture‑wicking base layer plus a light mid layer under the MT50 can carry you through a chilly 3–5°C morning. On colder days, the MT100 often removes the need for a bulky jumper. For the Siroko, a breathable base layer will manage heat build‑up when you step indoors.
Care matters for lasting performance. Wash cool with liquid detergent, avoid fabric softeners, and tumble‑dry low with clean tennis balls to help re‑loft the fill. Refresh the water‑repellent finish with a spray‑on treatment when rain no longer beads on the fabric.
What the numbers really mean
Insulation weight in g/m² indicates how much synthetic fill sits in the jacket. Higher figures tend to trap more heat, but shell fabrics, fit and wind also influence warmth. Comfort ranges are guides, not guarantees; personal metabolism, pace and what you wear underneath can shift the experience by several degrees.
Water‑repellent finishes cause light rain to bead and roll off. That buys time, especially on short dashes between bus stops, but it does not equal fully taped, storm‑proof construction. If forecasts show persistent rain bands, carry a compact waterproof to layer on top.
Availability across Spain
From Jerez to Valencia, stock will reach Decathlon shops and the brand’s online storefront on Monday. Expect XS–2XL size runs for all models, with five colour choices on the MT100 and core colours on the MT50 and Siroko Tacca‑W. Staff can help with trying two sizes for the best shoulder and sleeve match; this matters more than chasing the slimmest silhouette.
Launch prices at a glance: MT50 €19.99, Siroko Tacca‑W €34.95 (50% off), MT100 €39.99.
Extra pointers before you buy
Think about how you heat up across the day. If you walk briskly to work, a lighter jacket with better venting prevents arriving sweaty. If you stand at bus stops, insulation trumps breathability. Cyclists should check hood adjustability and whether the collar seals without rubbing. Runners might prefer the MT50 as a warm‑up layer that packs small.
If you want to stretch the value, pair these jackets with a compact rain shell and a merino base layer. That trio covers most autumn and early winter scenarios without the bulk of a heavy parka, and it spreads your spend across pieces you can reuse in spring.
€19.99 for the MT50 is wild value—defnitely grabbing one for 0–10°C commutes. If the DWR actually beads drizzle and there’s room for a thin fleece, that’s my autumn sorted.
