Berghaus VapourLight Hyper Smock 2.0
If you’re heading out into the backcountry this summer and want to be equipped for the elements in the least burdensome way possible, the Berghaus VapourLight Hyper Smock 2.0 is here to change your entire conception of what it means for a jacket to be lightweight. The Berghaus VapourLight Hyper Smock 2.0 weighs in at just three ounces, and offers all the protection of a waterproof jacket.
Obviously, when you’re going on an extended camping or backpacking trip, you need to be prepared for the chance of adverse weather. Even if the forecast is for sun, sun, and more sun, weather can change and be unpredictable, and if you find yourself caught in a rainstorm with only summertime apparel, you’re in for a bad time.
But bringing bulky items to combat the elements can also be a downer, especially if you’re trying to go as lightweight as possible. You don’t want to take up valuable space in your pack and add weight just in case the weather changes, either.
So, the Berghaus VapourLight Hyper Smock 2.0 is the perfect compromise – you can rest assured that you have a layer to protect you from the rain, and that layer happens to weigh little more than air, and can be compacted into a tiny, space-saving package.
In addition to being amazingly lightweight, the Berghaus VapourLight Hyper Smock 2.0 offers many features that serve to make it an excellent jacket for any serious outdoorsman. Uswing Berghuas’ patented Hypershell fabric – which is both completely waterproof and extremely breathable – the VapourLight Hyper Smock 2.0 is an extremely comfortable shell that will prevent you from overheating when the weather is more pleasant. When packed into its stuff sack, the jacket is the size of an apple, with about the same weight, making your back quite happy when you don’t need to wear the jacket.
The Berghaus VapourLight Hyper Smock 2.0 is windproof as well, so it will protect you from gusty winds even if rain is not falling. All the while, the jacket will feel like your own skin, as it is so minimal that you will hardly notice its there. That is the kind of protection/weight ratio that we all dream about.
This jacket is ideal for everything from backpacking to running, as there is always a need for a lightweight shell that can protect you from the elements. No matter what activities you plan on engaging in, the Berghaus VapourLight Hyper Smock 2.0 is a steal for just $150.
