Let's be honest: part of the job of a good rain shell is to sit in your pack, coiled and ready to spring into action when you need it. For alpine climbers, backcountry skiers, hikers and travellers, the Calcite Jacket offers protection from summertime cloudbursts and winter squalls, then disappears into your pack when its work is done. A helmet-compatible storm hood provides refuge from high wind and rain, and the watertight, DWR-treated front zip comes in handy when you're being plastered with wet snow. Made with recycled materials at a Fair Trade Certified™ facility.
