Rain Jacket – Taped Seams, Drawcord Hood and Packable for a Backpack

Rain Jacket – Still Dry Where a Regular Shell Gives Up

A shell jacket with fully taped seams and a hood that draws in around the face. It folds down small enough to live in a backpack for the days you are not sure about. Zip pockets keep what is in them dry along with you.

Why choose a jacket with taped seams?

The difference between water-repellent and waterproof lives in the stitching. Every seam is a row of holes, and that is where most jackets let go after twenty minutes of steady rain. Taped seams close those holes.

• Taped seams — no water finding its way in through the stitch lines.
• Drawcord hood — closes around the face without cutting off your side view.
• Hook-and-loop cuffs — tighten at the wrist so rain does not run up your sleeve.
• Zip pockets — what goes in stays dry, phone and keys included.
• Packs down small — folds into a backpack for the maybe-days.

Dry on the days the rain really settles in.

Close the zip and then the snap placket over it before you pull the hood cord. The cuffs adjust with hook-and-loop so a glove can go under or over. Hang it open to dry after use rather than folding it away wet.
