What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying: "I like carrying this on alpine missions where weight and pack space matter. It packs into its own chest pocket so it disappears in my pack until the weather turns. When storms roll in, the Pertex Shield membrane keeps rain out while still breathing well during steep climbs. The 3/4 zip also makes it easier to vent heat or throw it on quickly over layers."When the forecast looks uncertain but the objective still calls, we pack the Premonition UL Anorak from Mountain Hardwear and head uphill. Built for fast-moving alpine missions, this featherweight shell disappears into its own pocket until dark clouds gather over the ridgeline. When the rain starts falling or wind picks up across exposed terrain, we pull it on and keep climbing with confidence. The 3-layer Pertex Shield membrane provides dependable waterproof protection while remaining breathable during demanding ascents. Its recycled nylon face fabric balances durability and ultralight performance, standing up to rough granite and alpine weather without weighing us down. A helmet-compatible hood shields us from wind-driven rain, while the 3/4-length zipper allows quick ventilation when the pace increases. With raglan sleeves for unrestricted movement and a packable design that fits neatly into its own chest pocket, this shell is ready whenever the mountains change their mind.
