What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:"This shell stows down tiny but delivers when wind picks up—super easy to adjust the hood and stash essentials in the pockets. I grab it for every summit push or trail run."When weight and adaptability matter, the Wind Veil Hooded Jacket keeps your kit light, compact, and ready for changing mountain weather. The minimalist 20D micro ripstop fabric blocks biting winds without overheating and packs down for easy storage in a vest or pack. The elastic-bound hood features a 3-piece design, halo cinch, and brim for secure coverage that doesn’t limit your view. Dialed details—like a sternum snap and pass-through flap for harness-ready use—make this jacket exceptional for technical hikes, climbs, or fast-moving adventure. Thoughtful pocket placements, elastic cuffs, and lightweight zippers round out a design that’s simple, functional, and always easy to take along.
