What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying: "I've worn the Refuge Jacket on everything from rainy bike commutes to alpine hikes, and it's never let me down. It's fully waterproof, super breathable, and the long core vents are a game-changer when I'm working hard. I love that the hood fits over my helmet and the reflective hits help with visibility at dusk." From muddy trails to stormy commutes, the Showers Pass Refuge Jacket is the one shell we trust to do it all. Designed with 3-layer Elite(TM) waterproof-breathable fabric and fully taped seams, this high-performance hardshell keeps us protected in relentless rain while offering the breathability we need for high-output movement. The lightweight design and ergonomic fit make it just as at home on the bike as it is on the trail. Thoughtful details elevate the Refuge for real-world use: extra-long core vents prevent overheating on climbs, reinforced shoulders stand up to pack straps, and the removable helmet-compatible hood stows easily when skies clear. Waterproof zippers, PFC-free DWR, and 360-degree reflective trim make it a standout for any condition, whether we're chasing summits or sprinting for the bus.
