What's an Anorak? Well, turns out it's basically a parka. In this case, it's a nylon quarter-zip rain jacket. This lightweight overthrow is the perfect rain protection to toss in your hiking pack, or to keep handy during the prolonged rainy season we seem to be having in the US. Complete with an adjustable hood to keep it on you head during a down poor, and a vented back for temperature control, this piece is simple yet effective. To make it even easier to bring with you, the entire jacket folds into its front pouch pocket, taking up less space in your bag, and your closet. And at an $80 price point from a classic American brand, it's worth it.

Available on Huckberry.com for $80
