Was looking for something a bit cheaper but if it is really good I might save a bit longer, really need something for light and fast in the UK in summer and in India in the monsoon - and maybe for winter but only low level stuff.
Have you got the name right? I googled Montane Minimus Shell but nothing came up, except many other options from Montane.

Re: Montane Minimus Shell
Confusing care instructions: "Never tumble dry" - later it says:" if necessary tumble dry on cool setting" -doesn't exactly give you confidence .....
Re: Montane Minimus Shell
Why would anyone want to tumble dry a waterproof anyway?

this looks pretty similar to the Marmot Mica - a touch heavier I think, and £30 more but with the pocket in a better place
