Women's Venture 2 Jacket
Rain Shell · Hike / Trail / Travel / Daily

Constructed with a waterproof, breathable, and seam-sealed DRYVENT 2.5L fabric, the Women's Venture 2 is a classic year-round rain jacket designed to withstand backcountry storms and ready for everyday use. The 2.5-layer construction is the packable, lightweight workhorse of the rain-shell world — light enough to live in a backpack or a carry-on, technical enough to handle a full day of backcountry rain. Sized to layer over a fleece or a synthetic puffy on a cold-rain day, or to wear solo over a tee on a summer squall.

Regular Fit
Regular fit through the body with enough room for a baselayer and a light fleece underneath, but cut close enough to keep rain from pooling in the body of the jacket. The fit layers cleanly over a synthetic puffy on a cold-rain day and works on its own over a tee on a summer squall. Sized to be a true shell — a layer to throw on, not a jacket to size up into.
DRYVENT™ 2.5L Waterproof Shell
Waterproof, breathable, seam-sealed DRYVENT 2.5L shell with a non-PFC DWR finish helps keep you dry — the 2.5-layer construction pairs a waterproof membrane with a printed half-layer on the inside that protects the membrane and wicks sweat off the skin. Lighter and more packable than a 3-layer shell, and tougher than a 2-layer build. The seam-sealing closes the stitch holes where rain would otherwise sneak through.
Windproof Fabric
Windproof fabric blocks wind from penetrating the jacket, which is what makes a wet-bulb storm feel cold even when the air temperature is mild. The DRYVENT membrane is windproof as well as waterproof, so the same shell that handles a backcountry storm also handles a cold-wind day on a ridge walk. Two layers of weather protection in one shell.
Recycled Nylon Ripstop Body
Body fabric made with 100% recycled nylon ripstop — the ripstop weave resists small tears from branches, pack straps, and the everyday abrasion a shell takes in a backpack. The 40D fabric is light enough to pack down small, sturdy enough to wear as a primary rain layer for a full season. The recycled content keeps post-consumer plastic out of the waste stream.
Three-Piece Adjustable Hood
Attached, fully adjustable, three-piece hood with cinch-cord and cord locks in front and back — the three-piece construction follows the shape of the head for a snug, vision-friendly fit, and the dual-cinch system pulls the opening tight around the face on a windy ridge walk. The hood sits cleanly on the shoulders when worn down, lays flat when pushed back, and rolls into the collar when not needed.
Stormflap Front Zip
Center front zip has a stormflap with hook-and-loop closures — the stormflap covers the zipper teeth so wind and rain can't sneak through the front. The hook-and-loop closures are full-length and adjustable, so the stormflap can be cinched tight for a backcountry storm or left loose for everyday venting. The two-way zip option (when present on the shell) lets the hem open for sitting or stepping over a harness.
Covered Hand Pockets
Covered, secure-zip hand pockets — high-set pockets warm the hands and stash a phone, a beanie, or a pair of liner gloves. The covered zippers keep rain from getting into the pockets, and the hand pocket lining dries quickly when wet hands go in and out. Sized to ride a pack hip belt without interference.
Stows in Hand Pocket
Jacket stows in the hand pocket — the whole shell packs down into one of the front pockets, which doubles as a stuff sack. The packed size is small enough to fit in a backpack lid, a climbing harness, or a bike saddle bag. A clip-in loop on the inside of the pocket lets the packed jacket clip to a carabiner or a pack strap so it doesn't get lost at the bottom of a bag.
Pit-Zip Venting
Pit-zip venting under the arms — two-way zippers run from the chest to the cuff that open up the underarm for instant cooling on a hard climb. The pit zips dump heat fast without removing the shell, which is what makes a 2.5L layer work for high-output activities in cool rain. When the rain stops, the pit zips close and the shell is sealed again.
Adjustable Cuff Tabs
Adjustable hook-and-loop cuff tabs seal out rain and wind at the wrists and lock in the warmth the baselayers are producing. The hook-and-loop is wide enough to tune the cuff opening over a glove or a watch, and the tabs are sized to be operated one-handed with gloves on. A small detail that keeps water from running down the arm when reaching overhead.
Internal Hem Drawcord
Internal elastic drawcord at the hem with cord locks that exit into the hand pockets for adjustability — the hem cinches tight to seal out wind from below, and the cord locks live inside the hand pockets so they don't flap around as exposed hardware. The two-handed reach into the pocket doubles as the adjustment action, which is faster than fishing for a separate hem cord.
Embroidered Logo Placement
Embroidered logo on the left chest and back-right shoulder — tonal stitching that adds a small, unfussy brand mark without the weight or stiffness of a printed graphic. Embroidery doesn't crack, peel, or fade the way a screen print does, so the logos stay sharp through years of pack wear and wash cycles. The chest and shoulder placement keeps the branding visible without interfering with pack straps.

Sustainability

Recycled Content
Body fabric made with recycled nylon
Finish
Non-PFC DWR (no perfluorinated chemicals)
Machine Wash
Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with a mild technical wash or a wash-in DWR-restoring cleaner. Close all zippers and secure the hood cinch-cord and the hook-and-loop cuff tabs before washing. Wash with similar technical fabrics to avoid pilling from rougher materials. Cold water preserves the DRYVENT membrane, the DWR finish, and the recycled nylon fibers.
Tumble Dry Low
Tumble dry on low heat for 20-30 minutes to reactivate the DWR finish. The mild heat and the tumbling action help the durable water-repellent coating redistribute across the face fabric, restoring the beading that makes water roll off the shell. High heat will delaminate the 2.5L construction, melt the DRYVENT membrane, and ruin the jacket.
Do Not Bleach or Iron
Do not use chlorine bleach, fabric softener, or iron. Bleach breaks down the recycled nylon fibers, the DRYVENT membrane, and the embroidered logos. Fabric softener coats the membrane and the face fabric with a film that blocks the breathability of the shell and degrades the DWR finish. Ironing directly on the shell will melt the membrane and the printed half-layer on the inside.
Restore DWR
When the shell starts to absorb water instead of repelling it (called "wetting out"), re-treat with a spray-on or wash-in DWR designed for technical outerwear. The DRYVENT membrane is still waterproof — the DWR is what makes the face fabric shed water rather than saturating. A short tumble dry on low is the fastest way to reactivate the existing DWR; a spray-on DWR is the next step when the original wears out.
Storage
Store hanging on a wide wooden or padded hanger in a cool, dry place. Avoid leaving the jacket compressed in a stuff sack for extended periods — the 2.5L construction is more sensitive to long-term compression than a 3L shell, and the membrane can delaminate if stored tightly packed for months at a time. The stows-in-pocket design is for travel, not long-term storage.
Patch Small Tears
Patch small tears or punctures in the 40D ripstop shell promptly with a self-adhesive repair patch or a small dab of seam sealer on the inside. Small tears grow into large tears when the membrane starts to peel away from the face fabric. A patched 2.5L shell performs as well as a non-torn shell, but a torn shell that isn't patched loses waterproofing steadily.
