Mont reaches Lightspeed in the quest for the ultimate ultralight shell

Every premium performance brand should have an ultralight shell jacket and when it comes to the legendary Australian outdoor brand Mont theirs is the appropriately named ‘Lightspeed’. Designed to excel whether you’re trail running, mountain biking, bike packing, or doing anything that requires optimum protection from the elements without weighing or slowing you down. At only 5.8 ounces it’s packable enough to hide away in a pocket and forget about when the sun’s shining too. Safe in the knowledge that if/when the weather does take a turn, the Lightspeed is 100% waterproof (and windproof) due to being made using Mont’s own innovative Hydronaute Ultra 3-layer fabric. Whilst also providing an ideal lighter layer options for those times when the sun temporarily disappears or your all day adventure requires some cooler dawn or dusk action. A predictable solution to unpredictable weather, the Mont Lightspeed 3L jacket also passes our ‘Can I wear it whilst I walk around Campfield Market with a flat white as well as up on Kinder Scout?’ test with flying colours too.
