Black Diamond Fineline Stretch Rain Jacket - Men

A little rain on the approach can quickly become a full afternoon of wet rock and changing plans. We like the Fineline because it's a proper waterproof layer that's easy to keep close. It stretches when you're moving, vents when you're climbing and packs into its own pocket when the clouds finally clear.

Consider Another Option If

You need a more rugged hardshell for repeated abrasion on technical alpine routes or an ultralight minimalist jacket without ventilation features.
