Zpacks Women's Vertice Rain Pants
They do what they’re supposed to do without adding hardly any weight. For any item so useful when needed this is the best option I’ve found. Thank you.

Stay dry during those grueling climbs in the rain with the Women’s Vertice Pants. Gone are the days of hot, humid, and unventilated rain gear. Our Vertice fabric is optimized to be lightweight without compromising on durability, or breathability, and it is among the lightest possible choices for waterproof hyper-breathable rain gear.
Also available in Men's Sizes.
Be sure to check out the rest of our Vertice Rain Gear.
Our 1.50 oz/sqyd Vertice Waterproof Breathable Fabric boasts an incredible breathability rating that blows away most other rain gear.
Our rain pants are sized to fit over your hiking pants. You should be able to order your usual "US" pant size. The waist has adjustable shock cord which can cinch down to any minimum. If measuring using the sizing chart, measure around the thickest part of your hips/butt over your clothes.
Treated with durable, effective C6 water repellent. Made with PFAS chemicals.
Packs up tiny as shown. Roll the pants up and secure them with the waist elastic, or tuck them in your jacket's stow pocket. No stuff sack necessary.
Repair tape sticks extremely well to the inside of the material so repairs in the field are a cinch. Tape will not stick to the exterior.
Combine these pants with a matching Jacket and Mitts for a super light rain suit!
All Zpacks gear has a two-year limited warranty against defects in materials or workmanship. Please see our return / warranty policy.

A waterproof front zipper fully unzips allowing you to easily put them on or take them off. The ripstop nylon fabric is comfortable and lightweight without compromising on abrasion and tear resistance.

Groundsheet Poncho
LOVED the poncho on my 500 mile section of the PCT this year... it's one of my top 5 favorite pieces of gear!!! I used it in a downpour at the northern terminus as I completed 7 years of section hiking the PCT.

NRS Hydroskin Gloves
NRS HydroSkin® Gloves are perfect for hikers looking to cut the chill without sacrificing grip or feel. Great in the rain, snow, or other wet cold conditions, the thin neoprene material insulates and protects your hands even when wet. It allows you the enhanced mobility to easily pitch your tent in the rain or snow, or breakdown and pack up your cold wet tent the morning after a rainy night.
These also make excellent winter gloves for shoveling snow or scraping ice off your car, while small enough to fit in your jacket pocket. Combine them with Vertice Rain Mitts as a shell to keep them dry, and they can handle even arctic temperatures.
Keep your toes warm when wet too with NRS HydroSkin Socks.
AVAILABLE TO CUSTOMERS IN THE UNITED STATES ONLY
NRS Hydroskin Socks
NRS HydroSkin® Socks are the ultimate liner for hiking through snow, streams or other wet and cold conditions. They are thin enough to easily slip into your boots, trail runners, or sandals. The neoprene core insulates and protects your feet even when wet, and the 4-way-stretch PowerSpan™ outer layer gives you enhanced mobility and greater durability.
Keep your fingers warm when wet too with NRS HydroSkin Gloves.
AVAILABLE TO CUSTOMERS IN THE UNITED STATES ONLY
Zpacks Down Hood
Couldn’t be happier with this down hood. Perfect for quilt users, doesn’t slide around or off your head at night like a beanie can on straight, slick hair. Much better than the hood on a sleeping bag, which can slide into your face when you turn, and of course can’t be detached for use as a separate warm hood. The ultra light weight is remarkable. It’s very warm and has a cozy fit and feel.
– Rachel M., ★★★★★
Get ready for sweet dreams on cold nights when bundled up with the Zpacks Down Hood. A perfect companion to your ultralight down quilt, stay cozy and snug tucked away from the cold.
A down hood can move with your head as you turn side to side in your quilt, unlike an integrated mummy bag hood. You can also wear it around camp, or tuck it inside your camp pillow when you don't need it.
Zpacks Down Hoods are reversible, face whichever color you prefer outward.
Stick-On Key Zip Pouch
This thing was easy to attach and very lightweight. It will help me not lose track of IDs and cash in the bottom of my pack!
– Karen J., ★★★★★
Make sure you don’t lose your most important items. Attach this stick-on key zip pouch to the inside of your backpack, and your keys, wallet, passport, smartphone or other valuables will still be where you left them at the end of your hike. When you get to town the pouch detaches and fits in your pocket.
Just peel off the brown paper backing from the included flat clips and attach the pouch inside your backpack where you want it. We usually stick it towards the top of the backpack right behind the shoulder straps so that it is easy to get to. The adhesive bonds well and will also work on any urethane coated backpack material. Spare Stick on Flat Clips are available if you want to clip this pouch to a second location.
Zpacks Octa Fleece Hat
The Zpacks Octa® Fleece hat delivers impressive warmth without the bulk, ensuring you stay cozy whether you're tackling a windy trail or your morning commute.
Ultralight by design and featuring a double layer of fleece around the ears, this hat locks in heat where it matters most while remaining breathable and easy to pack. Warmth without compromise—no matter where the day takes you.
For a heavier weight 4 season option, check out our Brushtail Possum Beanie.

Fleece Hat
A few weeks earlier, I would have just lived with a cold head. But not now! For almost no weight and a tiny amount of space in my pack, I put up a strong defense against hypothermia. Another great product!
– Jon B., ★★★★★
Stay warm and cozy when the temperature begins to drop, whether you’re on the trail or on your way to work. Ultralight and crafted with a double layer of micro-fleece around the ears, this hat was created to keep you warm but not weigh you down.
For a heavier weight 4 season option, check out our Brushtail Possum Beanie.

Zpacks Octa Fleece Neck Gaiter
When the morning air has more bite than your trail mix, the Zpacks Octa® Neck Gaiter has your back (and your neck, face, and occasionally your hair). This ultralight wonder isn’t just a gaiter, it’s a shape-shifting sidekick ready to tackle whatever the trail throws at you.
Need warmth? Done. Sunburn defense? Check. Bad hair day camouflage? Absolutely. Think of it as a multi-tool for your head except way softer, lighter, and less likely to pinch your fingers.
