Featherweight, emergency storm protection for light-and-fast alpine endeavors, the Alpine Houdini Jacket with an H2No Performance Standard shell disappears when clipped to your harness, then deploys to shed wind and precip when your weather window closes.
Features
Ultralight 2.5-layer waterproof/breathable H2No Performance Standard shell fabric
Coated, watertight center-front zipper has minimal interior storm flap; taped seams throughout entire garment
Alpine helmet–compatible hood with laminated visor and single-pull adjustment rolls down and stows with a simplified cord-and-hook design
Exterior left-chest pocket with coated, watertight zipper doubles as self-stuff pouch with streamlined shape and carabiner clip-in loop
Elasticized cuffs and a minimal single-pull adjustable drawcord hem seal out weather
The problem is that you never see it coming on the Diamond. One moment you're climbing dauntingly steep granite at 13,000 feet. The next you're staring at sinister clouds roiling over the summit. Seconds later, lightning cracks. The Alpine Houdini keeps you dry with an H2No Performance Standard fabric that combines a waterproof membrane, an ultralight 100% nylon ripstop shell and a DWR (durable water repellent) finish. It's emergency rainwear for climbing that also blocks wind and traps your heat on chilly belay ledges, packs into a single chest pocket (now on the exterior of the jacket, with clip-in loop), and seals up with elastic wrist cuffs and a single-pull drawcord waist. With helmet-compatible, single-pull adjustable hood.
