Serious protection from the elements in a benchmark super-light and packable waterproof design.

Faced with darkening skies and the first spots of rain, whether two raps are left or ten miles ahead, the Zeno Jacket provides lightweight waterproof protection for the days you don't manage to outrun the storm.

Made from 100% recycled 2.5-layer DRILITE® 50D fabric with PFAS-free DWR, the Zeno is ideal for spring and summer use in the hills and higher mountains. One of our lightest waterproof shells, it easily fits in a pack as a backup jacket on fair weather days. However, with a fully adjustable Mountain Hood, laminated cuffs and dual tether hem drawcords, it’s protective enough to wear all day in poor conditions. Ventilated pockets and pit zips with internal storm flap allow for effective temperature regulation and airflow on the move. At the same time, the Alpine fit and articulated, pre-shaped sleeves minimise fabric bulk without restricting movement, leaving you free to move confidently over technical ground. Packing neatly into a hand pocket, the Zeno can be fastened to a harness or pack with twin karabiner carry loops when necessary, so even on the lightest and fastest missions, you can be ready when the weather closes in.
