DESCRIPTION

Lots of outdoor companies out there claim, 'oh, thing X.0 is so light, you'll hardly even notice it in your backpack,'even though they're trying to sell you a fifteen-pound thermos. But at 2.2oz, the MontBell Ultralight Wind Vest officially qualifies as an imperceptibly light piece of backpacking gear. This Ultralight vest will help reduce evaporative cooling from wind, and, despite the thinness of the material, the vest will even provide just enough of a membrane to slow down your body's heat loss on cooler days. The DWR coating sheds light rain so you can keep cranking as long as you need to.
