Outdoor Research Skychaser Jacket - Men's

When the forecast shifts mid route, the Skychaser keeps you moving instead of digging through your pack. This lightweight, waterproof shell handles alpine weather on fast hikes, summit pushes, and shoulder-season missions where rain, wind, and temperature swings all occur in a single day. It packs down small, layers easily over insulation, and moves with you on steep climbs, exposed ridgelines, and technical scrambles.

• Pertex Shield Pro fabric blocks wind and rain while staying breathable so you don’t overheat
• Mechanical stretch lets you reach, scramble, and layer without restriction
• Fully taped seams and a wire brim hood seal out driving rain and blowing snow
• Large pit zips dump heat fast during high output efforts like uphill pushes
• Helmet compatible hood adjusts quickly for climbing without blocking visibility
• High hand pockets stay accessible above a harness or hipbelt
• Packs down small so you can stash it easily when the weather clears
