Unpredictable mountain conditions call for reliable wet weather gear and these days, many of us are seeking a waterproof shell we can wear for life. Right now, you can pick up the tough Helly Hansen Odin 1 World Infinity Shell Jacket for $389.73 at REI. That's a hefty discount of $135, or 25%, off the original price for this shell which I've been wearing out in the wilds of Scotland for the past year.
I first tested this jacket out on a mountain rescue exercise during Storm Babet in 2023 and I was pleased with its high-performing protection against the elements. Though super lightweight, this jacket is a true shell and fends off the worst of the weather using a membrane made with the Norwegian brand's LIFA technology that's blissfully free of PFCs.
