At 3.6 ounces, this featherweight jacket only weighs slightly more than a deck of cards.If you're planning your escape from the office to the great outdoors, remember to take Patagonia's Houdini Jacket along for the ride, run, paddle or climb. Although it weighs less than your smartphone, this jacket does a much better job of blocking wind, light rain and snow since it has a durable water repellent (DWR) finish that coats the 100% nylon ripstop shell and center-front zipper. In fact (the copywriter writing this description exclaimed with a dramatic wave of his hand), it's also more resistant to abrasion.The slim fit accommodates a baselayer or a light midlayer when the temperature really falls. A single pull with one hand cinches the attached hood around your face, but won't pinch your ears or block your peripheral vision. You'll also appreciate how the half-elastic cuffs seal your wrists and the drawcord cinches the hem to stop that same wind, light rain and snow from joining you inside the jacket. Best of all, this jacket does a disappearing act when you pack it into its own small, vertically-zippered chest pocket. A reinforced clip-in loop lets you attach it to your hydration pack, mountain bike rack, daypack or anywhere you want to stow it for quick retrieval.
