Black Diamond Fineline Stretch Shell Rain Jacket Men's XL Black

The Black Diamond Fineline Stretch Shell stands apart from typical rain jackets by combining a 2.5-layer BD.dry™ membrane with mechanical stretch, delivering 20,000 mm waterproofing and breathability in a remarkably packable design. Unlike bulkier hardshells, it stuffs into its own chest pocket and clips to your harness, making it a go-to for climbers and fast-moving hikers who refuse to carry extra weight.

Highlights

• BD.dry™ 2.5L waterproof/breathable membrane (20,000 mm / 20,000 g/m²/24hr)
• Mechanical stretch nylon face fabric for unrestricted movement
• Fully taped seams and PFC-free DWR finish keep you dry in sustained rain
• Adjustable, climbing-helmet-compatible hood with single-pull adjustment
• Zippered chest pocket doubles as a stuff sack with carabiner clip loop
• YKK reverse coil PU-coated main zipper for reliable water resistance
• Elasticated cuffs and adjustable drawcord hem seal out drafts
• Slim fit layers easily under a harness or over a midlayer

In daily use

On alpine starts or ridge scrambles, the Fineline Stretch Shell lives in your pack until the weather turns. Pull it on over a helmet without fighting the hood, and the stretch fabric moves with you through high reaches and stemming moves. When the sun returns, cram it into the chest pocket, clip it to your harness, and forget it's there. The PFC-free DWR beads light rain, while the 20K membrane handles downpours, keeping your layers dry without turning the jacket into a sauna.
