Montane Womens Featherlite Jacket available now at Ultralight Outdoor Gear with FREE UK+EU Delivery, in-depth reviews, full tech specs & helpful buying advice.
Montane's updated Featherlite Trail Jacket is a lightweight, breathable wind shell with a soft nylon finish.
Montane says:
The Featherlite Jacket is a super light and packable layer that provides breathable wind protection for fast-paced mountain days. Made using lightweight Wind Barrier Dynamic fabric, this jacket stows effortlessly in any pack – ready for whatever’s up ahead.
Our Verdict
This windproof, fast-moving jacket packs down incredibly small and weighs just 98gs (based on size 12). A very versatile layer that is excellent to shove into a rucksack side pocket or running vest when you aren't sure what the weather has in store for you
Its features are minimalistic; you get one Napoleon chest pocket, which can accommodate a mobile phone, and the jacket can stuff into this pocket, so it is brilliantly packable. Semi-elasticated cuffs cinch the jacket around the wrist, and a simple drawcord around the hem blocks wind from entering the jacket; incredibly lightweight yet still user-friendly.
It's more breathable than other Windshells I've used; it uses Montane's wind barrier dynamic nylon which is nice and soft against the skin; the soft nylon and the air vents under each armpit facilitate good airflow, so you don't overheat. It's also quiet; many other wind shells rustle, especially when running in them, but the nylon is nice and quiet.
