We pack Black Diamond's Highline Stretch Shell all year long whether we're backcountry skiing in winter or alpine climbing in summer. It boasts BD's burliest waterproofing that's plenty breathable for hoofing it on skintracks and trails alike. All of this burliness comes in a thin, packable design that doesn't take up too much space when it's dry and sunny out. Black Diamond also instilled a performance stretch so we can move freely.

Bought this jacket for work and instantly loved it. Repels rain extremely well and is still breathable unlike other rain jackets I’ve worn in the past. Perfect for runs or bike rides in the cold even though it’s thin it still keeps you pretty warm. Definitely would recommend it for anyone who does any outdoor activity!

Gave it a 9 because it fits a tad large, other than that, it's a wonderful light shell.

Bare Bones Shell
Shell isn't bad. Doesn't offer insulation but plan on using it for backcountry skiing so really just want a layer that keeps the wind off me and offers some snow protection. This shell is that. Its light weight has enough room in the hood to get around my helmet, all around a high quality shell. There is taping on the seams that will hopefully up the durability of the shell but will have to see. Excited for ski season with the highline.

Best of the Best so far!
It's doing great so far! The true test will be using it on a 93 mile Wonderland Trail hike/camp around Mount Rainier! Will update review then.

Perfect fit and function
First non-gore jacket I've had that's performed as good if not better than my other top class jackets.

I love this jacket. I'm 6'2, 218, and I got size XL. Fits great and has room for layering underneath. I use it mainly for mountainbiking, and I almost couldn't be happier with it. The only issue I have is the draw string clamp at the bottom not being strong enough to hold the elastic cord where I'd like it to. The rest of fantastic: the jacket is waterproof and completely windproof, and the breathability is also outstanding. The pockets are big enough and higher up in case you wear a backpack with a hip belt. This almost perfect! Great color (I got the blue one), great fit, and great features. Very happy with it. Great job, Black Diamond!

Fantastic Jacket
Lightweight, breathable, and good fit. Took it to Mt. Whitney and paired with appropriate layers it kept me warm. I did not experience any precip so I can't comment on its water proof was.

Multi purpose rain jacket
Jacket performed very well in heavy rain as you would expect for a high quality rain jacket. The jacket is also extremely comfortable on warmer rainy days.

The most bang for your buck.
This is the most high performing hardshell I have for the cost. I’ve used it snowshoeing, skiing, and ice climbing in all sorts of weather and it’s kept me dry and happy (within reason, hah) on every trip I’ve brought it on. It’s well fitted for harnesses, has zippers for ventilation, and a helmet hood... so everything I could want.

Warm, ergonomic, breathable and durable
This lightweight shell performed so well for me that I’ve already ordered another. The comfort, ergonomics, breath ability, pit zips, and durability as well as packability vaulted it right to the top as my favorite rain/snow/wind shell for backpacking either a day trip or overnighter. It does run a little snug, seems designed for either a leaner hiker/climber or to have only a nano puff/grid fleece and layering system underneath. Unlikely to accommodate the ultra bulky puffy parka, but you can always throw that overtop if needed. Pit zips sometimes easier with help from a friend. Performed well both in heat, high winds, and fierce cold nights well below freezing.
