What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying: "I like how quiet and comfortable this shell feels compared to most rain jackets. The 20K waterproof rating handles steady storms, and the underarm vents help regulate heat on climbs. The stretch fabric moves well, and the fit layers easily over midlayers without feeling bulky."When gray skies settle over the ridgeline and rain begins to fall, we zip into the Modis Hooded Jacket and keep moving. STIO built this shell with its signature PeakProof(R) 2. 5-layer fabric, offering reliable waterproof protection without the stiff, crinkly feel of traditional rainwear. Fully seam-sealed construction locks out moisture, while the hydrophilic membrane balances 20,000mm waterproofness with 20,000g/m^2/24hr breathability to keep us comfortable through steady showers and active pursuits. Mechanical stretch enhances mobility on climbs and winding trails, and zippered underarm vents allow quick heat release when the pace picks up. A fixed hood with bonded brim shields from wind-driven rain, while the brushed tricot chinguard adds next-to-skin comfort. Adjustable cuffs and a storm-sealing hem fine-tune the fit, and the dropped hem offers added coverage when conditions worsen. Packable, protective, and quietly comfortable, it's our reliable layer for wherever the forecast turns uncertain.
