Hawai‘i—where we recently field-tested rainwear—wins with over 400 inches of rain a year in some spots. But not all rain is the same. From the Kona Hema Preserve to Hilo, we tested jackets for every kind of rainy day.

A Hard Rain’s Gonna Fall

For record storms, high winds, and notoriously rainy climes, you need a techy jacket that weathers it all.

Black Diamond Stormline
Rain Shell
Made for alpine climbing through gnarly weather, this jacket gets its kicks from BD.dry laminate and DWR-treated zippers. Four-way stretch also lets you move freely through weather.

Afternoon Thunderstorms on the Trail

Weather in the mountains can be unpredictable, which is why contingency lightweight rainwear is a must.

Arc’teryx Incendo Jacket
When a quick storm strikes, pull this ultralight <3oz jacket out of your pack, and carry on. The Incendo protects against wind and rain alike, while maintaining breathability.

Cloudy with a Chance of Showers

For drizzly days around town, choose a lightweight shell that easily stores in a daypack or tote.

The North Face Fanorak Jacket
When rain comes in fits and starts, pull this low-key shell on, pull it off, then stuff it in the kangaroo pocket.
