The Stormline Stretch is a lightweight men's rain shell built on Black Diamond's own BD.dry waterproof, breathable and windproof membrane. Its standout trait is a very stretchy fabric with underarm gussets, so it moves with you on rock instead of fighting you. It packs into its right hand pocket with a carabiner loop and has a climbing-helmet-compatible hood, pit zips and a waterproof front zip. It suits climbers, hikers and commuters who want one packable shell for both trail and city rain. Against stiffer Gore-Tex shells it trades some storm-proofing for stretch and packability, and owners rate it highly for exactly that balance.

The Black Diamond StormLine Stretch Rain Shell is a men's rain jacket made with BD.dry, a waterproof, breathable and windproof fabric solution. It has a waterproof center front zipper, two zippered hand pockets and pit zip vents with a DWR finish. The vents let the jacket adapt from wet conditions to moderate weather.
Underarm gussets and ultra-stretchy fabric add mobility and durability. The hood is compatible with a climbing helmet. The hem and cuffs are adjustable to dial in the fit.
The shell stows into the right-hand pocket. A carabiner clip loop lets it clip to a harness or bag.
