www.outdoorresearch.com; 6.8 ounces
For the always be prepared category, we introduce the Helium Jacket. At a mere 6.8 ounces this all-2.5-layer ripstop nylon shell packs to the size of a tennis ball (or into its own pocket) for stash-and-forget ease. But when the storms rise up, it offers hardcore protection against all elements. The features are minimal: a chest pocket with a waterproof zip, elastic cuffs, and single elastic-pulls at the hood and waist—in other words, just what you need and nothing you don’t. It ain’t the most breathable shell on the market, but when you find yourself on the trail or disembarking a plane just as a monsoon descends, this jacket will become your best friend.
Comes in both men’s and women’s
