Description

The iconic, award-winning Helium Rain Jacket is a lightweight, ultra-packable outdoor essential. Pertex® Shield Diamond Fuse 2.5-layer fabric delivers rugged durability that breathes as your pace quickens while fully taped seams keep moisture and wind at bay on gusty ridges or drizzly descents. Reflective chest logo and forearm overlays increase visibility in low-light environments, and the jacket stuffs into its chest pocket (hand pocket for W’s) for quick stowage in your pack. Elastic wrist cuffs and a drawcord hem deliver a tailored fit that layers comfortably under a pack hip belt during long days on trail.

    • Ultra lightweight
Purchased for my husband. I own the women's version along with the rain pants. These are feather light, and pack down into a pocket. I leave them in my pack at all times for emergency gear, and it saves me a significant amount of carried weight vs. my previous raingear. Due to a ruptured disc in my neck I am judicious about carried weight. PROS: - very lightweight - very packable - effective at keeping rain and moisture out CONS - no pitzips, no full length zippers in the pants for venting. If you are working hard on significant elevation gains your sweat becomes your moisture issue. - lightweight fabric not appropriate for bushwhacking TIPS -choose gear based on your hike scenario. - For expected heavy or prolonged rain, multi day treks, I carry slightly heavier rain gear with zippered pitzips and venting options for comfort. - for bushwhacking or as a severe winter hardshell I carry sturdier top and bottom zippered waterproof layers - for the remaining 80% of my hikes I carry these. ... show more

    • Excellent light weight rain coat
I bought this before heading up to Ketchikan Alaska for the weekend. It’s a literal rain forest up there and this preformed great. I love the cut which is slim but it should be noted that I sized up to have room to move and wear a layer underneath if needed. I liked the elasticized cuffs and the fit of the hood. Yes, there are no waist pockets but I’d rather have pit zips if I was going to add weight. So there are some things that aren’t perfect but if they were there the coat would weigh more. So I’m completely satisfied with the trade offs. ... show more

    • Perfect packable rain jacket. Beware of sizes...
Too small. This is sized for 'slim' people. Not normal sized people.

    • Might as well wear a cotton shirt with a hoodie
I am highly disappointed in this jacket. For the cost, you would expect it to be so much more better quality. You can get a $20 rain jacket that packs up in its own pocket just like this one and it actually now allow the rain to seep through. This rain coat is nice looking but it is an incredible overstatement to imply that it is anywhere near a rain coat. I am writing this review immediately after walking in from the rain that I was in for maybe 15 minutes and water is on the inside of the jacket because the water just seeps through. It does not repel water. The best you can say is that it is sort of water resistant and possibly works if you are sprinting from to your car and just need a quick bit of cover. But I can get the same thing from a cotton t-shirt with a hoodie. Or I can go to my local sports store and pay $20 for an actual rain coat that actually repels water. ... show more

    • Great rain jacket!
This is a great lightweight rain jacket. I purchased it for backpacking where packed size and weight are my primary concerns. This jacket knocks it out of the park. Love that it is fairly breathable considering how long it stays waterproof. The jacket tucks into its own pocket and has a clip to attach it to a backpack or to the pants clip. I typically wear extra large shirts and jackets and this extra large jacket fits me perfectly. There is enough room for layers without swimming in it. Highly recommend. ... show more

    • Lightweight, no pockets.

This is the lightest rain jacket I’ve ever had. Fits very small into the chest pocket. There are no hand pockets so be aware of that, otherwise it’s great for sudden rain without weighing you down.
