The Ultimate Lightweight, Packable Weather Shield for the Unpredictable Outdoors

When you are deep in the bush or traversing exposed alpine ridges, the weather can turn on a dime. The Spika Scout Jacket is engineered to be your ultimate insurance policy. Designed specifically as a lightweight, highly packable stowaway shell, this jacket packs down directly into its own pocket, ensuring you are always prepared for a sudden downpour without carrying unnecessary bulk in your daypack.

Despite its exceptionally lightweight construction (weighing in at just 485gm for a size Large), the Scout Jacket does not compromise on heavy-duty weather protection. It boasts an impressive 20,000mm waterproof and 20,000 g/m²/24hrs breathability rating. This means it acts as a fortress against driving rain and cutting winds, while simultaneously allowing your body heat and sweat vapour to escape when you are pushing hard up a steep face. Complete with 100% fully tape-sealed seams, YKK waterproof zippers, and an adjustable hood, it locks out moisture entirely.

Finished in Spika’s signature Performance Olive, this jacket offers a sleek, low-profile aesthetic that blends seamlessly into the New Zealand bush, yet looks just as sharp during urban exploration or weekend camping trips. Designed with a functional oversized fit to allow for easy layering over fleece or puffer jackets, the Spika Scout is a reliable, high-performance necessity for any serious outdoorsman.
