One of the standout features of the Stretch Rain Shell is its DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment, which not only enhances its water-resistance but also provides additional protection against the elements.

Additionally, it includes two zippered hand pockets for secure storage and a waterproof YKK Aquaguard center front zipper to keep moisture out.

The stretch fabric increases comfort, while the underarm gussets provide enhanced freedom of movement, making it ideal for climbing or other dynamic activities.
