The Helium Rain Jacket is a lightweight, breathable, multi-use award winner, offering durable weather protection when the forecast calls for on-and-off-again sun, showers, clouds, and cool breezes.
An Ultra-Packable, Variable Weather Essential For Active Outdoor Pursuits
The iconic, award-winning Helium Rain Jacket is a lightweight, ultra-packable outdoor essential. Pertex® Shield Diamond Fuse 2.5-layer fabric delivers rugged durability that breathes as your pace quickens while fully taped seams keep moisture and wind at bay on gusty ridges or drizzly descents. Reflective chest logo and forearm overlays increase visibility in low-light environments, and the jacket stuffs into its chest pocket (hand pocket for W’s) for quick stowage in your pack. Elastic wrist cuffs and a drawcord hem deliver a tailored fit that layers comfortably under a pack hip belt during long days on trail.
Premium materials and thoughtful design elements combine on this variable weather specialist, guaranteeing it a dedicated place in your pack on every adventure.
Note: The Helium Rain Jacket must be cleaned regularly with your preferred liquid detergent to maintain Durable Water Repellency (DWR) performance.

TECHNOLOGY
Durability. Strength. Lightweight.
Pertex developed Diamond Fuse technology as a unique way of improving the durability and abrasion resistance of fabrics without adding any unnecessary weight. Diamond Fuse fabrics use yarns with unique diamond shaped filaments that lock together to create a durable and highly abrasion resistant fabric. This engineered structure allows Diamond Fuse fabrics to remain very stable over extended wear and washing.
