Amazingly light but cuts the wind and holds the heat in with a layer underneath!

– Joe B., ★★★★★

Choosing the right layer for crisp spring mornings and chilly fall nights can be a challenge. Our Ventum Wind Shell is crafted to cut the breeze and trap warmth in your base layer or against your skin.

Ventum fabric strikes the right balance between cutting cold wind while still allowing enough breathability for sweat to escape when hiking on chilly mornings and evenings.

It’s perfect for when a base layer alone is not enough, but insulation would make you overheat. Weighing under 2 ounces this is a must-have item for when you plan to hike in cool weather.

Avery ★★★★★

First trip out on a blustery ridgeline and I barely felt the gusts through it, yet it packs down small enough to forget it’s in my pack. The fabric is whisper-thin but somehow traps warmth with just a base layer underneath, perfect for those in-between temps.

Ella S. ★★★★★

Pulled it on over a thin fleece during a gusty ridge walk and the wind just stopped, though I stayed noticeably warm. It's so featherlight I kept checking I hadn't left it at home, but it still handles a real chill. Perfect for those shoulder-season mornings.

Elizabeth ★★★★★

The whole thing disappears into my pack, but on a windy ridge at dawn it kept me warm over just a baselayer. Weighs nothing at all, which makes it a no-brainer for spring trips.
