The Flextail measures a compact 1" x 3" (about 2.5 x 7.5 cm). Yup, you heard it right – smaller than your favorite candy! Say goodbye to bulky gear hogging up space in your backpack, Zero Pump has got your back!

Amazingly light but cuts the wind and holds the heat in with a layer underneath!

– Joe B., ★★★★★

Choosing the right layer for crisp spring mornings and chilly fall nights can be a challenge. Our Ventum Wind Shell is crafted to cut the breeze and trap warmth in your base layer or against your skin.

Ventum fabric strikes the right balance between cutting cold wind while still allowing enough breathability for sweat to escape when hiking on chilly mornings and evenings.

It’s perfect for when a base layer alone is not enough, but insulation would make you overheat. Weighing under 2 ounces this is a must-have item for when you plan to hike in cool weather.

This windshell is unisex sizing. We do also have some women's sizes in our Bargain Bin while supplies last.

It was great at blocking the sun and flexible in the wind. I used it for hours in a rain storm yesterday and it was so light I barely noticed I was holding it that long. I plan to bring this umbrella everywhere.
