Lightweight Waterproof Rain Jacket - Levanter - Taiga Green - Helikon-Tex

      Levanter provides lightweight protection against rain and wind. Designed for outdoor use when the weather turns unpredictable, it features a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating and an inner PU (polyurethane) layer, offering protection against light rain and wind. It has a waterproof rating of 10,000 mm and breathability of 10,000 g/m²/24h – suitable for moderate-intensity activities.

Difference from a classic hardshell jacket:
      Levanter is lighter, more compact, and has a simpler construction. It takes minimal space and offers instant protection when needed. A hardshell jacket with a membrane performs better during long, high-intensity activities in continuous rain.

Design and functionality:

• 3/4 short zipper – easy to put on/off and provides extra ventilation

• Kangaroo pocket – access on both sides, double zippers, space for essential gear

• Adjustable hood – fits the head shape, protecting against wind and rain

Key Features:

• DWR C0 – environmentally friendly water repellency

• PU 10K/10K – moisture barrier and comfort during short activities in rain

• 3/4 zipper – quick to wear, ventilation without fully opening the zipper

• Kangaroo pocket – space for maps, EDC, gloves

• Adjustable hood – protects against wind gusts

• Lightweight and packable design – ideal as an “emergency” layer

Note:
      Without an active membrane, Levanter works best as an emergency rain jacket – lightweight, quick to pack, and ready when weather becomes unpredictable.

Care Instructions:

• Store in a dry place, away from moisture
