The Flyweight Shell Jacket is a lightweight rain jacket with a practice-oriented design. It is made of the proven 2-layer GORE-TEX PACLITE® PLUS material. This breathable material combines an extremely low weight with a truly impressive performance. It is highly abrasion-resistant, which makes this jacket very durable. Combined with the well-thought-out hood and cuff design, it provides absolutely reliable weather protection. Due to the integrated pouch, this jacket can be packed in a very compact way. Thus, it is easy to take along and therefore you will always have it close at hand. Without a doubt, having this compact jacket in your backpack will come in handy in many situations. Further, it has an athletic cut that offers great mobility and outstanding wearing comfort. Since it is longer than a classic wading jacket, it is also great for fishing without waders. In addition, this makes it a fantastic choice for all kinds of outdoor activities – with or without fly rod.
