Why We Like The Outdoor Research Helium Rain Jacket - Plus

The Outdoor Research Helium Rain Jacket Plus is our ideal outdoor weatherproof jacket, whether on a rainy hike or an overcast trail ride. It keeps us dry and comfortable with fully sealed seams and its Pertex Shield Diamond Fuse fabric. The zippered chest pocket stores our essentials securely and acts as a stuff sack to store our jacket when the weather brightens up.

So lightweight

(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) Omg okay I'm so glad I splurged and got this for myself! I do think the new version with the pockets is worth the price but I'm on a budget so this will have to do. Impressed with how lightweight and packable this jacket is and love how it fits around my hips. Super love OR's plus size line!

Made to fit true to size

Works to keep you dry. Very light weight. I bought Velcro to keep the gap in the sleeves tight when I'm using trekking poles. They store in the handy chest pocket. Id like this even better with pockets for my hands. I gave it five stars for fit and function!

Super light and packable

This jacket is unbelievably small and light. I've brought it on several multipitch adventures where the weather was questionable and it barely took up any room on my harness. Its not super warm, but for a light weight layer for a rain squall or windy afternoon its definitely up to the job and you can't beat the size, packability, and fit. I wish it had more pockets, but I suppose thats what you get for being so small.

Perfect Super Lightweight Layer

This a really great all around lightweight layer. When you aren't sure if you are going to get wind or light rain, its the perfect piece to throw in your pack for a little extra protection. It is VERY lightweight so not for pouring rain or more extreme weather. I wish it had a pocket or two, but then it wouldn't be as light. Sizing is good! I'm 5'10" and a size 18/2X and the 2X fits perfectly.

Love my new jacket!

It's exactly what I wanted for a backpacking jacket- super lightweight and packable. As a minimalist I'm not going to own more than one rain jacket, so I'm glad it looks nice and fits well, for rainy days around town. The one improvement would be longer sleeves (a common issue for me, I'm tall and gangly) and thumb holes.
