Description:
At under two ounces a wind shell jacket is ounce
for ounce the most valuable piece of clothing you can carry.
It cuts the breeze and traps warmth in your base layer or against
your skin that otherwise would be blown away. It is the perfect
weight for hiking on chilly mornings and evenings when a base layer
alone is not enough, but insulation would make you overheat.
Features:
- Watch the Women's
Ventum Wind Shell Overview Video.
- Elastic at the back hem, and at the wrists keeps the wind out.
The hood also has elastic for a snug fit around your face.
- Constructed from .59 oz/sqyd Ventum ripstop nylon. This fabric
is tightly woven and heat calendered to cut the wind,
while still being breathable and allowing good vapor transfer so
you don't get clammy. It is more comfortable for every day hiking
than a rain jacket.
- High quality "C6" durable water repellant (DWR). Not waterproof.
- Mosquito proof
- Highly wind resistant
- Excellent vapor transfer / breathability - comfortable to wear,
not clammy
- Soft feeling - not sticky or plasticy like some other
fabrics in this weight range.
- Ripstop / tear resistant.
- Lightest weight wind shell available with a hood and full
length zipper.
- The jacket packs down tiny into an integrated storage pocket.
- All Zpacks gear has a two year limited warranty against defects in
materials or workmanship. Please see our
return / warranty policy.

How to measure:
Use a string or cloth tape measure to measure around your bust. The "Fits Chest Girth" in the chart above allows enough
wiggle room for layering.
The women's wind shell is flared at the hips.
Care:
The wind shell can be machine washed with regular
detergent. Line drying is recommended. Very high heat could potentially melt the
thin fabric. If you wish to revitalize the durable water repellent, try washing
with a product like
Grangers Wash+Repel.
