REVOLUTIONARY ULTRALIGHT HARD SHELL
It's never been done. A 3-layer, waterproof/breathable hard shell with 20K/25K performance and complete welded-seam construction that's under 11 oz. AND under $200. All the protection of a seaman's storm jacket. Yet so breathable and lightweight you can wear it anywhere, any day of the year. Perfect for hiking, climbing, cycling or any other time when you're active and the weather's nuking. Quite possibly the most versatile gear you'll ever own. The breakthrough fabric, exclusive to Eddie Bauer First Ascent, puts this ultralight in a class by itself. "A hardshell jacket is like an attorney...you rarely need one, but when you do, it should be a really really good one. I carry the BC-200 in the bottom of my pack 90% of the time, but for that other 10% of the time when the weather is hellish, it gives me full protection from the elements." -Peter Whittaker
