Helikon-Tex Windrunner Jacket - Windpack Nylon

The Windrunner is an ultralight anorak-style jacket for wind and changing weather. Windpack Nylon protects against the chilling effect of wind during stops and low-intensity movement and dries quickly. A DWR coating limits moisture and dirt absorption, and the adjustable hood shields against wind and light precipitation.

The jacket packs into its own chest pocket, so it fits easily into a backpack, a bag or even a pants pocket. The half-zip design keeps things simple: mesh underarm vents release heat when you speed up, and elastic cuffs and a hem drawcord seal out wind. There is a large zippered pass-through pocket on the front and two internal pockets. It works on its own in warm weather and as a windproof outer layer over a hoodie or light insulation from spring to early autumn.
