Black Diamond Men's Stormline 2.5L Rain Shell Jacket

Great rain jacket! Super light and packable. I live on the Olympic Peninsula and having a trust worthy rain jacket is the key between a good time and a bad one. This jacket keeps the good time rolling. It holds up to all the PNW throws at it! Can’t go wrong having this light weight packable Jacket to keep you dry while out on the trail or the slopes.

I’ve only used the jacket on a couple adventures, but it’s very lightweight and packs small. The zippers feel nice, and the ventilation is nice. I haven’t had a chance to test in the rain yet, but it handles the snow very well.

PERFECT water-proof backpacking jacket!! Looks amazing and works great. This is a great quality product. Extremely light weight and true to size.

Nice design features and good jacket for quick day hikes or rainy city days. Love the Octane colourway - can’t be missed in the fog!!

La veste est bien faite, couleur magnifique et la taille parfaite. Moi qui suit un petit gabarit la taille xs est ideale. J'apprécie les ouvertures sous les manches, mais je ne l'ai pas encore testé à la pluie, mais le tissu à l'air bien imperméable. Très content

I purchased the orange version of this jacket for quick deploy during very technical use in a marine environment where utility is the only consideration. I've only used it a few times so far but it's been excellent in each time in that I barely noticed it was there. The jacket is waterproof and breathes quite well; but then again that's its entire purpose. Aside from this, it's very lightweight and packable, so its easy to keep in my gear bag without being obtrusive. The zippers are very smooth and easy enough to grab with thinner gloves yet they don't budge when moving. The cinches are fairly easy to use. The material is very flexible and hasn't seemed to snag on anything too easily. The orange is very visible to those around you in extreme weather. Possibly downsides could include some thinking the sizing runs a bit long but it's a shell jacket, its supposed to, that's what the velcro on the wrists and the hood adjustment are for. I really like the extra room to wear over a wide variety of layers. The room in the hood is a good size for helmets if you need but the cinch on the back is pretty effective and it doesn't droop over your eyes when tightened. Due to gear worn over top of the jacket, I haven't utilized the pockets or pit zips yet so I can't comment on those. The waist cinch works well, but I do worry that the single cinch design might come out from where I tuck it and catch on something. This has not happened in use, hence the 5 star, but is something I was initially concerned about. Overall, great jacket, would recommend.

I've been using all these years rain jackets, different brands, materials, prices, for trail, city running, hikes under the rain, sleet or wet snow (Montreal and parks around). We did a hike for about 8 hours under the rain, 100% dry inside this one. My wife has been using it for about 1.5 year, same with wet snow. Until now, it performs close to much pricier materials jackets, we'll see with time.

I won a Stormline jacket for my wife several years ago, and I’ve wanted my own ever since. Looking forward to using this on a trip to Switzerland in the fall.
