The Helium Rain Pants provide lightweight, ultra-packable flash storm protection and are perfect when you are adventuring in unpredictable weather conditions or are looking to shave weight. They are made from bluesign®-approved, waterproof and windproof Pertex® Shield fabric and also feature a gusseted crotch for extra range of motion, gripper tape at the waist and cuffs for a no-slip fit and ankle zips to make them easy to get into and out of over footwear. When not needed it stows into the back pocket, with a handy carabiner loop to hang it off your pack or harness for easy access.
