The XeroCloud is REI Co-op's three-layer waterproof shell, built with a stretchy, soft-feeling HydroWall fabric that stays quiet instead of crinkling like most rain jackets. It has fully seam-sealed construction, a PFAS-free DWR finish, pit zips, an adjustable hood with a laminated visor, and it stuffs into its own left-hand pocket. It suits hikers and everyday commuters who want a packable shell that moves with them. Against lighter two-layer and 2.5-layer shells it trades some weight for a softer hand and better breathability, and owners say the fit runs short in the torso with snug shoulders.

Owners rate it well for keeping them dry in rain and wind, and they like how soft and quiet the stretch fabric feels. Complaints center on the short torso, snug shoulders and a few jackets wetting out.
The REI Co-op XeroCloud 3L Rain Jacket has a stretchy 3-layer HydroWall waterproof shell. The fabric is windproof, highly breathable, soft and quiet. It is fully seam-sealed to keep water from seeping in.
A durable water repellent (DWR) finish made without PFAS helps moisture bead up on the surface. The hood adjusts at the back and has a laminated visor to fend off rain while keeping visibility. Pit zips let you release excess heat on climbs.
The jacket packs down into its own left-hand pocket for easy transport.
