Montane’s Cetus Lite Jacket is the first garment the brand has created with its all-new Petrichor technology, which is designed to deliver high levels of waterproofing and breathability without weighing you down, as well as being crated from sustainable materials – a welcome step forward in the world of outdoor apparel.
I was excited to try out the Cetus Lite for myself, and it’s accompanied me on many local trails and for a long hike in the Welsh Black Mountains. I’ve been highly impressed by its performance, despite its lightweight construction. It’s proven to be a great waterproof jacket, offering very good breathability, waterproof protection, and denying access to the wind. It’s definitely the waterproof jacket I now regularly reach for when venturing outdoors. Does its new tech make it one of the best waterproof jackets out there? Let’s see, shall we.
