Wind-resistant jacket designed for compact compression, allowing storage in minimal space. Perfect for packing in a bag or backpack during outings. On colder days, wear it as an outer layer over a fleece or sweatshirt to shield the body from cooling winds.
Crafted from ultralight nylon Windpack fabric with a tightly woven structure, this jacket delivers outstanding wind resistance. The material features a Teflon DWR coating, effectively repelling water to shield you from light showers. Enhanced ventilation is provided by underarm vents, ensuring optimal breathability.
The Windrunner Windshirt WindPack version features 3 functional pockets designed for efficient gear management:
The Half-Zip main closure incorporates a two-way YKK zipper. A collar flap ensures the chin remains protected from zipper snagging.
The Self-Pack System enables the jacket to be stowed into a dedicated cover within a mesh pocket, allowing it to be compressed into a compact size for easy transport.
The adjustable hood with a visor together with the high collar offers reliable protection from wind and rain. Elastic cuffs and waist drawstrings ensure a customizable fit for various body types. Mesh-lined ventilation openings under the arms enhance airflow and help regulate body temperature.

WindPack is an ultralight material used in outdoor clothing that provides protection from wind and light rain. It is characterized by high durability, yet is easy to fold, allowing it to be packed into a minimal size.
Lightweight. Good as wind protection. For rain, you need to have a poncho. I had trouble finding the pocket it packs into. It is quite snug-fitting. It is worth choosing a larger size, or planning to wear only a thin fleece underneath, and even then it is OK at a feels-like temperature of 0°C.
Great jacket made from solid material. It is extremely light and can be easily packed into a small, practical bundle that will fit in a backpack without any problem and doesn’t take up much space. I highly recommend it.
Very good jacket, I already have one from Termontane for outdoor trips, and I use this one every day. It works great – it's comfortable, has a loose fit, well-placed pockets, and good ventilation, everything is made with great attention to detail. The jacket has a factory impregnation that protects against rain and it even handled light rainfall. I recommend the purchase.
I already have three Windrunner jackets because I value them highly. I didn’t really need another one, but when you love something, it’s hard to resist, so I chose the model in Polish panther camouflage, which I liked very much. It's a shame that the night camo version is no longer available, because I would have gladly bought that too.
Great, lightweight jacket that can be folded into a small size, so it doesn't take up much space. It perfectly protects against wind and light rain. It is definitely worth choosing.
The jacket was tested in mountain conditions during rain and passed the test in terms of wind protection. With rain, it's a bit worse, but overall thermal comfort is a plus. Ultra light, you don't feel its weight, size L fits perfectly for 183 cm.
Great jacket. It is very thin and you might have concerns about how it will perform, but I have been using it for a year now with tactical gear and it is still holding up. Perfect for summer, the large number of vents cools nicely.
Excellent windbreaker, it has become my new favorite piece of clothing. It effectively protects against the wind, is lightweight, and easy to fit in a bag. At a promotional price of less than €50 it is really worth it, but I think the regular price is too high.
Very good, rather for windy days or as protection from drizzle in combination with a fleece or sweatshirt. The biggest advantage is the possibility of packing it into a case that is sewn inside the jacket, so it takes up really little space. Just be careful, as it can get crumpled and might need a moment :)
It is just as it should be. Ultra-thin but protects against wind and excessive sun. Drizzle is not a problem for it. Also, it folds into a micro bag. On colder days, put a fleece or warmer underneath and it works great.
Revelation, while I wasn't completely convinced at first, after a year of use this is a must-have for me. It's very light when folded, and without an extra cover it takes up almost no space. Resistant to light rain, with ventilation under the arms plus opening and unzipping the pockets is great. Huge plus for the adjustable hood. It’s great for windy weather, and when combined with a sweatshirt or fleece under the jacket, it worked perfectly on a cold day.
This is my next jacket from Helikon-Tex and I am incredibly satisfied. This model works great for me during outdoor activities – running, jumping rope – I throw it over a warm layer and I'm isolated from the wind. I recommend taking your usual size and not going smaller, so the jacket doesn't restrict your movements.
The Windshirt goes really well with the Patriot Mk2. With October winds, this set really works. The jacket itself is light, and when rolled up it basically fits into a pocket. The mesh under the arms provides some ventilation. It's hard to say about durability, for example when pushing through dense forest, because the fabric is really thin.
I've only had it for a few days, but it looks very good, good quality workmanship, nice material. Light, packs into a bundle the size of a large fist. I also ordered the new generation in parallel, but kept the old one: I didn't notice any big differences, and the price difference is significant.
Neither particularly windproof nor waterproof, but it is light, very nice looking, and excellently tailored (those pockets). I do not regret buying it and I recommend it. Regards.
