It’s tiny too, packing into its neat little 5-gramme stuff-sac to make a package around the size of a tennis ball or a small apple. A men’s large smock now weighs in at just 75g and the new women’s specific smock weighs only 67g (size 12). Hydroshell™ products have been engineered to substantially reduce their impact on the environment, especially when it comes to excessive water consumption, one of the most environmentally damaging outputs of the textile industry. There are, by the way, no pockets, not even a token one to take a spare tenner or a house key, but that’s minimalism for you.

A shell with reliable durability and storm level of protection for a drier experience in even the worst conditions.

but the new Hyper HydroShell Jacket adds a little more all-round usability thanks to the full-zip format and slightly more generous cut, while still being ridiculously light and compact thanks to the MtnHaus-developed fabrics and construction. There are many waterproof options out there but what makes this one special is the lightweight nature of it. Well, waterproof is waterproof no matter what and both technologies promise this so we must consider other options. All of the products incorporate long lasting, proven durable water repellency treatments (C6 PFCs), meaning they have to be reproofed less during their lifetime (versus jackets with non PFC DWR treatments, which have to be reproofed, on average, after every two significant uses). The fabric is filmy and semi translucent, giving the unit a 23% more packable rate, perfect for those conscious about weight on a trek.

The Light Hike Hydroshell jacket also comes with over-trousers and is a great jacket for all kinds of activities, from a multi-day hike to a dog walk. Our previous experience with the Smock is that it’s wind and waterproof all right, but less breathable than some alternative fabrics, which makes it great for those days when you think it might just rain but aren’t sure, but not a shell you’d choose on 100% rain days. Anyway, the fabric seems entirely waterproof and breathable, it's just I like doing things like breathing and using my hands, which results in holes!
