Today we’re comparing four windbreakers for hiking, trail running, climbing, travel, and everyday outdoor use. In this video, Zach walks through the Helly Hansen Trail Windbreaker, Patagonia Houdini, Rab Windgather Hoody, and Arc’teryx Squamish Hoody. These are all lightweight layers built to cut wind and add a little weather protection, but they definitely do not all feel the same. The Helly Hansen is the lightest and simplest option. The Patagonia Houdini is the classic ultralight wind shell with a few more features. The Rab Windgather feels more durable and protective, especially for everyday use. The Arc’teryx Squamish sits somewhere in the middle with better durability, a bigger chest pocket, and solid mobility. If you’re looking for a windbreaker for hiking, running, climbing, or just keeping in your pack, this should help you figure out which one makes the most sense.
