Weighing in at 215g the Minimus is an ultra lightweight rain shell from the future. The fabric, Pertex Shield delivers exceptional breathability levels and performance characteristics that you would normally find at the high end of extreme mountain shells.
Whilst designed to work hard during fast paced endurance activities in wet conditions, the Minimus is equally at home as a high performance rain shell on a trip out in stormy weather, and with a pack size the shape of an apple, it will hardly be noticed when not in use.

Our Verdict
A superbly light jacket with good waterproofing and breathability characteristics - some good features retained from heavier jackets - such as the cord adjuster round the head/hood - so the hood will follow your head when you turn it.
Velcro cuffs, chest pocket with keyring (will stop a keyring degrading the pocket material), chin fleece and drawcord hem. Uncompromising design - this jacket sets a new standard. It will be compared to GoLite's Malpais jacket at around the same weight - the Minimus only has one pocket compared to two for the Malpais - but scores on the hood design and slightly higher spec'd material.
