Unless you’re a fan of exercising in a sauna, leave your "lightweight waterproof" at home and take a look at the magical opportunist that is the Houdini Jacket from Patagonia. The very best products love doing more than one thing but are partial to none and the Houdini is the perfect all-rounder for springtime in the UK. The weather-resistant, wind-blocking and breathable 100% nylon ripstop fabric weighs in at only 3.6oz (102g) so you won’t even notice it until you need it. Stuff it into your pocket or hang it from your rack, either way you can plan your escape with it at countryside.co.uk!
