Bomber Ultra-Lightweight Protection

Ranked #796 - Men's Rain Jackets
October 22, 2009
Great jacket, lighter than Gore-tex, but seems to be every bit as waterproof and breathable as far as I can tell. Another major plus is that Pertex is stretchy, very soft and very quiet. Packs down really small, outstanding venting options, perfect 3 season weather protection for hiking and biking.
