Light protection from rain and wind
The Levanter is a lightweight, waterproof rain jacket designed for off-road use when the weather makes its own rules. Thanks to the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating and an internal PU (Polyurethane) layer, the jacket protects against light rain and wind. It offers waterproofing of 10,000 mm and breathability of 10,000 g/m²/24h – ideal for medium-intensity activities.
How does the Levanter differ from a classic hardshell?
The Levanter is lighter, more compact, and simpler in construction. It takes up little space and offers immediate protection when the weather changes. A hardshell with a membrane, on the other hand, is better suited for longer, intense activities in continuous rain.
The Levanter's thoughtful design includes a shortened 3/4 zipper for easy on and off and additional ventilation. A large kangaroo pocket with two-sided access and two zippers offers space for important equipment. The adjustable hood adapts to the shape of the head and provides additional protection from wind and rain.
Key features:
-
DWR C0: Water-repellent – environmentally friendly, without compromise
-
PU 10K/10K: Moisture barrier, comfort for short-term use in rain
-
3/4-length zipper: Quick to put on, additional ventilation without complete opening
-
Kangaroo pocket: Two zippers, space for map, EDC or gloves
-
Adjustable hood: Adapts to the head, protects against gusts of wind
-
Lightweight, compressible design: Ideal as a "just in case" layer
Without an active membrane, the Levanter is best suited as an emergency rain jacket – lightweight, quick to stow away, and ready for use when the weather becomes unpredictable.
To maintain the jacket's durability and performance, it should be stored dry and away from moisture.
The PFAS-free DWR-C0 coating loses its water-repellent properties over time; therefore, it is recommended to regularly renew the impregnation with suitable care products.
