Forget the crazy pool inflatables shaped like unicorns and avocados  – a lightweight yet fully waterproof jacket, or at the least a water-repellant shell for handling lighter rain showers, is one of the savviest buys you can make for summer. That's because they're highly packable, so you can stuff them in your bag until it starts raining. 

Ethical adventure clothing brand Patagonia has an impressive range of waterproof jackets and water-repellant shells that are perfect for the changeable summer weather we’re currently seeing. They're especially ideal for any of you involved in various outdoor pursuits, as they're both durable and breathable to keep you cool. 

The Patagonia Torrentshell is one of the brand’s most loved weatherproof jackets, and comes in a raft of colours and styles. Available in men’s and women’s cuts, the Torrentshell can be bought either as a zip-up jacket or as a pullover-style shell. You can also buy an Insulated version for cold weather use.

The zip-up and pullover versions are on sale at various outdoor gear retailers right now, along with other key Patagonia jackets to protect you from a range of weather, from light summer drizzle to heavy rain. Here’s our top picks from the current sales…
