From the perpetual drip of a rain forest trek, to the flash-bang of an afternoon thunderstorm in the mountains, this lightweight waterproof shell jacket is built for trekking and hiking in bad conditions..or just sitting through an all day soccer tournament...

For trekking and hiking in drenching conditions, the new Torrentshell provides 2.5-layer waterproof/breathable protection that's durable, lightweight and without frills. The jacket stuffs into one of two zippered handwarmer pockets (and has a clip-in loop); the hood fits snugly over a helmet, rolls down, stows away, and has a laminated visor; and the center zipper has exterior and interior storm flaps. With armpit zips for added ventilation and a drawcord hem.
