Sprayway Venom II

£150.00

This lightweight waterproof jacket from Sprayway is just right – a good length in the body and sleeves, with elastic and Velcro adjustment on the cuffs. The zip-off hood is also a great fit and it’s nice to be able to remove it when not required, rather than roll it away under the collar. The face fabric is slightly rustly, ...

Berghaus Paclite Trek

£160.00

The longer length of this lightweight jacket is very appealing, particularly as it is lighter than many longer options! The material is Gore Paclite, which was a very popular lightweight fabric, until Gore Pro Shell came out in late 2007. You get additional abrasion-resistant sections around the hem and shoulders too. Arm movement is superb as the hem and cuffs ...

Montane Super-Fly

£180.00

This lightweight waterproof jacket from Montane offers great ease of movement, especially in the arms, and the close fit and simple, lightweight design are good too. It’s a much shorter cut than many, though, and the collar, which is integral to the hood, isn’t as comfy as some. There’s a very spacious hood with a big peak that protects your ...

Mountain Equipment Pro Lite 2008

The jacket is a simple design with a main front zip that benefits from an external stormflap. There ...

Montane Superfly

£200.00

This lightweight waterproof has a huge following thanks to the use of eVent fabric and great design. For 2007 it got a nip and tuck to improve its performance yet more. A scattering of bonded rather than stitched seams are evident to reduce bulk, while the shoulders are reinforced with a very unusual printed pattern. The most important update is ...

Rab Super Dru

£200.00

Rab is currently top the league if you’re in the market for a well-priced yet functional lightweight hill jacket. The Super Dru extends Rab’s dominance, being designed as a lightweight mountaineering jacket that’s also durable. The fabric is 3-layer eVent, a proven top performer, but you also get more abrasion-resistant fabric over the shoulders and sleeves. The length extends around ...

Vango Flux 30 rucksack (2008)

£225.00

Montane makes a huge range of functional, lightweight jackets that are excellent for hill-walkers – and the event Halo Stretch is typical of their pedigree. The weight is good and so is the use of eVent waterproof and breathable fabric. There are additional reinforcement panels on the hips and forearms for greater durability. But the big difference is the addition ...
