Filson - Swiftwater Rain Jacket

Ultralight Protection. Heavy-Duty Performance.

While Filson is famous for its heavy-duty shells, the Swiftwater is engineered for the moments when you need lightweight, waterproof protection that can be deployed in an instant. Weighing in at under 14 ounces, this jacket is designed to disappear into your pack or vest until the skies turn gray.

Built with a 2.5-layer 3.8-oz. ripstop nylon, the Swiftwater features a waterproof membrane that’s fully seam-sealed to keep out the heaviest downpours. But waterproof is only half the battle the membrane is highly breathable, allowing heat and vapor to escape during high-exertion use. It’s the ultimate "just-in-case" shell that doesn't compromise on Filson’s legendary reliability.

Technical Engineering
