When light weight and waterproofness are top on your list, this jacket's features and durable construction fit the bill. Made with Gore-Tex PacLite®, engineered specifically to be light, packable and more breathable than other 2- or 3-layer Gore-Tex fabrics. Fully taped seams prevent water from penetrating through seams. Articulated sleeves allow ample arm movement, for swinging ice tools and planting poles in backcountry powder. Attached, roll-away hood has a laminated brim to keep the wet stuff off; also features a one-handed, single-pull adjustment system. Front zipper features a dual-flap system in which one flap lays over the other to seal out weather; they're kept in place with rip-and-stick closures. Mesh front pockets help circulate excess heat out the jacket and are sized for storing small essentials. Pit zips with waterproof zippers help vent heat; cuff tabs with VELCRO® brand closures seal in warmth. Dual hem drawcords help regulate heat.
