Sometimes threatening clouds just hang on the horizon all day. For the days when they move overhead with drenching force, there is the Torrentshell Stretch Jacket. The 2.5-layer, nylon ripstop fabric is durable enough for scrambling and backpacking. The underarm gussets and stretch panels in the lower arms and across the back of the shoulders provide mobility for climbing and mountaineering. All of the zippers are coated and watertight and a generous hood with a laminated visor keeps the rain off your still-smiling face.
