Breakthroughs
Dryhunt®
Nanofiber electrospun membrane he world's most air-permeable waterproof nanoporous membrane is the most efficient at transporting body moisture outside the jacket in any condition. This dramatically improves thermoregulation and inner climate comfort and helps all insulation layers work at maximum performance. Dryhunt is a hydrophobic nano-membrane that simultaneously outperforms any membrane technology in the world regarding breathability and stretchiness, which are essential for thermoregulation and comfort. This electrospun nanomembrane technology is made and applied to the fabric with the highest precision in South Korea.
Termovent®
Multi-level thermoregulation system When outside temperatures are low, and you move actively, your body generates excess moisture. Without proper moisture management, this moisture can cause you to freeze when you stop moving, as it cools your body rapidly. Thermovent® technology manages moisture in three ways: through the Dryhunt membrane, the world's most moisture-permeable membrane; the Aerospacer3D mesh - which prevents moisture buildup where a backpack or other gear compresses the membrane; and underarm pit zips that allow for self-regulated climate control. Together, these technologies create the world's most advanced and efficient thermoregulation system for temperatures from 68°F to -15°F ( from 20°C to -25°C), suitable for Mild, Cool, Cold, and even Very Cold and Extreme cold weather conditions with additional layers.
Cluster®1.0
Quick access and carrying system TheCluster®system delivers unmatched speed and efficiency for accessing essential gear like radios, GPS devices, and ammunition, conveniently located on the chest for easy reach. Its innovative design allows for quick reloading and access to electronics without bulky pockets, reducing overall weight. Compatible with most calibers of ammunition and any device with a clip, it supports knives, flashlights, or items up to 2.2 lb / 1 kg. With no comparable system in terms of efficiency and design, Cluster® provides fast access without sacrificing mobility or adding bulk, making it the ultimate solution for hunters on the move.
OptiSight6®Hood
Perfect Vision, Seamless Comfort It may seem unusual to emphasize innovation in a hood, but at Hillman, every detail matters.

5WL lightweight camo rain jacket. Stay dry on your next hunt with waterproof and packable hunting gear.
Rain has a way of cutting your next hunt short, but having the right rain gear changes everything. Our 5WL camo rain jacket gives you waterproof protection that doesn't weigh you down. This premium hunting rainwear combines breakthrough engineering with packable convenience that keeps you in the field when others head for cover. The camo pattern breaks up your outline naturally, keeping you concealed in wet timber or waiting out storms.
Weighing just 690 grams, this rain jacket packs into its own pocket. The Dryhunt membrane blocks rain while letting moisture escape, keeping you dry and comfortable.
Camo Rain Jacket Built for Real Performance
This revolutionary camo rain jacket delivers unmatched protection against wet conditions and heavy rain. Whether facing warm-season downpours or cold rain with sleet, our advanced waterproof system provides consistent comfort. The ultra-breathable Dryhunt nanomembrane works with how hard you're pushing, blocking rain while venting moisture when you're really moving. From 20°C all the way down to freezing temps with the right layers underneath, this rain jacket handles the full season.
The camo patterns blend natural earth tones and grey elements for versatility in different terrains. This camo hunting jacket works whether you're positioned for western big game in open country or tucked into thick eastern woods waiting for whitetail. The breathable construction means you can wear this rain gear during active stalking without overheating, then stay protected when you stop to glass.
Rain Gear That Changes Everything
Stay focused when wet weather rolls in. When you find the ideal rain jacket, it becomes the difference between abandoning your hunt and staying in position. Most waterproof jackets trap heat inside, leaving you uncomfortable. The 5WL rain hunting jacket ends that compromise. This packable rainwear weighs less than two pounds but delivers full waterproof protection through hours of pouring rain.
The breathable Dryhunt nanomembrane represents a breakthrough in rain gear technology. The electrospun nanofiber structure lets water vapor escape right through its nanosized pores. Five levels of waterproof protection work together here: the Dryhunt membrane, eco-friendly DWR treatment, breathable seam sealing, premium YKK AquaGuard zippers, and the OptiSight6 hood. The full zip front with two-way operation gives you ventilation control.
Rain Jacket Technology That Works
What sets this rain jacket apart from typical hunting apparel? The 5WL keeps you focused because smart design puts function first. The Cluster system keeps essential gear within easy reach, storing ammunition in chest-mounted holders. When you need to close dialog with your target, fumbling with bulky rain gear pockets won't cost you the shot.
The windproof Dryhunt membrane gives reliable protection from wind and rain without trapping heat. Where most waterproof jackets use solid membranes that trap moisture inside, our breathable electrospun nanomembrane actually lets vapor escape naturally. Pit zips under the arms give you extra ventilation when you're really working hard.
This rain jacket features durable Durasuede construction, a woven brushed shell that keeps quiet and thornproof while staying flexible. Where typical rainwear creates noise with every movement, this innovative fabric stays silent. The durable construction resists thorns and branches that would tear lighter rain gear.
Harshest Conditions Performance
Built for hunters who face the harshest conditions nature delivers. This lightweight rain jacket handles extreme conditions from warm rain to near-freezing downpours. The Termovent thermoregulation system manages moisture through the ultra-breathable Dryhunt membrane, strategic pit zips, and Aerospacer3D mesh that prevents moisture buildup where your pack compresses the jacket.
When pushing through wet terrain, active movement generates heat and moisture. Poor rain gear traps that moisture. The breathable 5WL prevents this cycle, keeping you dry and warm during stop-and-go hunting. Curved sleeve cuffs protect the back of your hands where cold rain creeps in.
For extreme conditions in heavy rain, the full 5-level waterproof system keeps you protected. Every seam is sealed with breathable tape. Every zipper uses waterproof YKK AquaGuard construction. You stay dry in the harshest conditions when lesser rain gear fails.
Packable Design for Every Season
The packable design means you're always equipped for changing weather. The rain jacket stuffs into its own chest pocket, creating a compact bundle. At 690 grams, you'll barely notice the weight until rain starts falling.
Color options include multiple camo patterns optimized for different environments and seasons. Whether you're hunting autumn woods or grey winter landscapes, there's a camo pattern crafted for your conditions. The breathable, lightweight construction handles everything from those early warm-weather hunts clear through to late-season cold rain. You stay dry from the rain outside and comfortable inside.

This jacket is incredibly lightweight, yet it doesn’t compromise on durability. I wore it on a week-long hunting trip, and it held up perfectly through brush and rain. Definitely a must-have for active hunters!

What I love most is how easy it is to layer with this jacket. It’s breathable, so I can wear it over a base layer in the fall or under a heavier coat in winter. It’s my go-to for all seasons.
— Michael Y
This jacket packs down small, which is great for long hikes when space is limited. It’s lightweight but still provides excellent protection against wind and light rain. Perfect for minimalist hunters.
— Arthur H.
Not only does this jacket perform well in the field, but it also looks great. I’ve even worn it casually because it’s so comfortable and stylish. Highly recommended

5-Level Waterproof Shielding

Dryhunt® nanomembrane
Dryhunt® is a groundbreaking hydrophobic nanofiber membrane that redefines what's possible in hunting gear. Thanks to its unique technology and structure, it outperforms not only the non-porous hydrophilic membranes but also any membrane with nanoporous structure.
Developed with precision in South Korea, Dryhunt® is crafted with an unparalleled focus on performance. Its cutting-edge nanofiber technology supports insulation layers to operate at peak efficiency, keeping you dry, comfortable, and focused on your hunt. This is not just a membrane—it's the pinnacle of waterproof and breathable innovation, offering an advantage no other product can match.
As seen in this electron microscope image, Dryhunt’s nanofiber structure allows moisture to escape freely through its nanosized pores. Meanwhile, the pores are smaller than water droplets, effectively blocking water from the outside. Thanks to this cutting-edge nanotechnology, you will stay dry, warm, and free from the frustrations caused by 99.9% of conventional membranes.
99.9% of membranes out there are solid hydrophilic membranes that don’t offer direct breathability. Moisture escapes through these membranes via a condensation-like process, which is highly inefficient and fails to effectively release excess moisture. As a result, you’re left with damp or even wet, freezing sensation most of the time.
How Waterproofing Works? The water droplet is 20 times larger than the nano gaps of Dryhunt® membrane, which completely blocks water from getting through.
How breathability works? As you move, your sweat is vaporized and efficiently transported through the Dryhunt pores to the outside with unmatched efficiency.
Nanofiber revolution
Dryhunt® is created by spreading nanofibers through electrospinning, which creates a fibrous layer that lets air move freely through it while blocking water penetration.
Completely PFAS-free and eco-friendly, Dryhunt® sets the gold standard in performance, reliability, and sustainability.
The gaps between nanofibers are 20 times smaller than the water drop which makes the membrane fully waterproof. At the same time allows an incredible 90 cubic feet of air/moisture per square foot to pass through every 24 hours—equivalent to the air volume of a spacious living room.
⛊ Level 2 | DWR
To prevent the fabric from soaking and gaining weight, we use eco-friendly DWR C0, a fluorine-free treatment that ensures long-lasting water repellency and sustainability.
⛊ Level 3 | Seam Sealing
To ensure seams are waterproof, we use breathable seam sealing tape, providing added protection without compromising comfort or performance.
⛊ Level 4 | YKK AquaGuard
For ultimate protection against water, we use premium YKK AquaGuard zippers, renowned as the industry leader for their unmatched efficiency and reliability.
⛊ Level 5
OptiSight6®hood
2 Level Thermoregulation
When outside temperatures are low and you are moving actively, your body generates excess heat and moisture. Without proper moisture management and thermoregulation, you can overheat while moving or freeze when you stop, as moisture buildup cools your body rapidly.
Termovent® technology manages moisture and thermoregulation through six advanced technologies.
Together,they create the world’s most advanced and efficient thermoregulation system, suitable for temperatures ranging from 20°C to -25°C (68°F to -13°F). Designed for Mild, Cool, Cold, Very Cold, and Extreme Cold weather conditions, this system delivers unparalleled comfort and performance with the option to add layers for the harshest environments.
𖦹 Dryhunt® nanomembrane
Our advanced nanofiber membrane efficiently expels excess heat and moisture through its airy structure, ensuring optimal comfort while maintaining complete protection against external elements.
𖦹 Pit Zips
For intense activity, strategically placed pit zips allow you to customize ventilation by adjusting the openings to release excess heat and moisture, enhancing comfort during high-exertion tasks.
Silent, Durable and Stretch - Now All in One
Designed to overcome the challenge of creating a waterproof shell that balances durability and quietness. Durability demands a high-density woven structure, similar to canvas, while noise reduction benefits from a softer, low-density design like fleece. To achieve this balance, the fabric features a brushed woven surface that mimics deer suede leather, providing a premium feel while significantly reducing noise during movement. This innovative shell is almost noiseless, excelling in thorny underbrush and tough terrains while offering durability, protection, and long-lasting performance in the toughest conditions.
Any coated or membrane-bonded fabric generates some level of noise. Knitted fleece-like fabrics are the quietest but the least durable, while woven Cordura-like fabrics are the strongest but also the noisiest.
Hillman's Durasuede is a breakthrough fabric that combines unmatched durability from its woven construction, exceptional noise reduction from its brushed acoustic surface, and superior comfort thanks to its stretch design. Backed by 20 years of textile expertise, we are proud to present the first ultimate hunting fabric, offering an unprecedented balance of durability, noise reduction, and comfort-all in one.
