"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""I bring the Ridgelite WP Jacket on every hike where weather’s a maybe—it’s incredibly light, super packable, and reliably waterproof. I forget I’m even wearing it until a storm rolls in, and then I’m glad I brought it.""Whether we’re chasing summits or dodging summer downpours, the Ridgelite WP Jacket from The North Face gives us ultralight protection without sacrificing performance. Crafted with waterproof and breathable DRYVENT™ 2. 5L fabric, this featherweight shell keeps us dry without slowing us down—ideal for weight-conscious hikers and fast-packers. Its minimal construction doesn’t skimp on thoughtful features. An adjustable hood cinches down for storm coverage, underarm gussets provide enhanced mobility, and it stuffs down into its own pocket for efficient stashing. Made with recycled nylon and finished with a non-PFC DWR coating, the Ridgelite is as responsible as it is reliable on the trail."
