LightHeart Gear Ultralight Rain Skirt / LightHeart Gear Ultralight Rain Skirt

[Manager's comment]

This is a rain wrap (rain skirt) from LightHeart Gear, a North Carolina-based company. It's made in the USA, of course, in their own factory. It's a slightly different style from the Enlightened Equipment rain skirt we sell in our store.

EE uses thinner, lighter fabric and emphasizes versatility, while Lightheart Gear emphasizes ease of walking. Still, it weighs only about 60 grams, about 10 grams more than EE.

Its distinctive feature is its A-line fit. The A-line design widens towards the toes, making it easier to move your legs, putting it on and taking it off, and allowing for good ventilation in hot weather. You can also wear the rain wrap over your shoulders like a rain cape.

【Features】

■The waistband is easily adjustable, with both Velcro adjustment and a slim buckle and webbing.

■Waterproof

■No flame retardants used.

PFAS-free. The silicone and polyurethane coating is non-off-gassing and non-toxic.

■The fabric does not get wet, so water will not leak through the fabric even if you sit inside the rain skirt.

Micro ripstop polyester, silicone exterior, PU interior coating

■Made in North Carolina, USA.

[Manufacturer description]

LightHeart Gear is a family-run garage brand based near the Appalachian Mountains in North Carolina. Their rain jackets are especially popular in their home country of the United States. They're committed to MADE IN USA products and also do sewing for other companies, so they have a strong reputation for their sewing techniques. Because they manufacture in their own factory, they can even provide Japanese sizes (XS and S) that aren't normally stocked in the US.
