Focus on what matters: Must-have features in a rain jacket
Minimalism isn’t about going without—it’s about honing in on what really counts. And when you’re out in nature, every gram matters. That’s why the ideal rain jacket comes down to three essentials: it should be lightweight, weatherproof, and versatile. We break down what to look for in this article.
Minimalist design meets maximum performance
