MontBell Ultralight Wind Jacket - Men's

The MontBell Men's Ultralight Wind Jacket is so light and compressible, you could stuff it in your ear. While we'd never recommend such an unorthodox carrying method, it's a good place to start looking should you ever misplace it. The fact is, the silky 15-denier, water-resistant Ultralight Wind Jacket will fit in any pocket and weighs a scant 2.6 ounces, so when the breeze picks up or the mist turns to drizzle, the only problem you'll face is remembering you brought it along. A small pocket on the sleeve stashes your house key on blustery trail runs.

Bottom Line: Breeze, schmeeze—the Ultralight Wind Jacket is always close at hand.

Well made wind jacket with full zip for 2.6oz. It works & makes a good addition to a UL layering clothing system.

What's the fit like? I'm tall, kind of thin, and worried that it will either be too short or too big and billowy.

MontBell clothing fits a little small. I'd suggest going up one size just to be sure.At LEAST one size! Their sizing chart is cuckoo! I'm a skinny 6'3", and the large fits me like a body condom. In most outerwear I look for a "medium tall", but in this I need an extra large.

Great jacket - sizing is small

By:
March 13, 2009

I got this jacket about 3 weeks ago and haven't had time to test it on any real hard hikes or runs, so I can't give it five stars yet, but it is very comfortable, surprisingly warm, weighs 3.2 oz (med) and has blocked a lot of wind and some light rain on my 15 minute bike commute.

I am 5'6" and 130 lbs and usually I wear small jackets, therefore I originally ordered this jacket in small and could barely get my arms inside, it was so tight in the shoulders. I now have the medium and it fits snuggly over a capilene shirt. It was very tight when I tried it on over a 200 wt fleece. I am happy with the fit since I was really looking for a windshell for windy spring days and summer mornings.

I recommend this jacket, especially if you are interested in low weight and some waterproofing, but go up at least one size (two if you are looking for an outerlayer).

I love the silky soft shell of the 15 denier Superlight fabric

I love the silky soft shell of the 15 denier Superlight fabric used on the Phantom, but don't care for the lining material. Does MH make a jacket that uses the same 15 denier Superlight for the shell AND the lining? Thanks!

If they do, it isn't for sale on BC. My guess is no though, because they make their ultralight windshirts out of their Transition fabric, which is a more softshell styled material.

It's DWR (Durable Water Repellent)coated, not "waterproof". DWR fabrics are good for slightly wet weather -nothing too severe.
