The wind and shower-proof Lite-Speed is the lightest weight hooded, performance sports jacket in the world. Its phenomenal weather protection to weight ratio makes it both ultra minimalist yet also hugely functional and versatile.
It's an uncompromisingly useful item of clothing that features 360° 3M Scotchlite reflective detailing, shrugs off showers, cuts out wind, but only weighs about the same as an apple. It packs into its own unique stuff ball complete with mini karabiner.
