Mountain Hardwear Cloud Cipher Hooded Jacket - Men's

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:"This jacket is a minimalist’s dream. It's insanely light, packs small, and punches way above its weight when it comes to weather protection. I love the asymmetrical cuffs and how the hood cinches without messing up my peripheral vision. It's been a game-changer for fast, wet missions."When weather windows are tight and pack space is even tighter, we turn to the Mountain Hardwear Cloud Cipher Hooded Jacket. Designed for high-output pursuits in unpredictable conditions, this shell delivers waterproof, windproof protection in an ultralight package. Built with 3-layer DrySpell fabric, it shields us from the elements without trapping body heat—keeping us dry and comfortable while we move. Every detail is designed to support speed and function on the trail: underarm zips dump heat fast, the helmet-compatible hood adjusts without blocking vision, and the asymmetric cuffs and dual hem cinch keep weather out while maintaining mobility. When the sun returns, it packs easily into its own hand pocket with a clip loop. From alpine objectives to thru-hikes, the Cloud Cipher is always ready to ride the line between featherweight and fully capable.
