Outdoor Research Men's Stratoburst Stretch Rain Jacket

Built for bigger, broader, more active men who refuse to let the weather slow them down. The Outdoor Research Stratoburst Stretch Rain Jacket is a serious piece of kit — lightweight, packable, and genuinely waterproof — designed to keep up whether you're grinding out a hill climb, walking the dog in a downpour, or cycling into a headwind. Available in XXL and XXXL.

Made to Move with a Bigger Frame

Standard rain jackets can feel restrictive across the shoulders and chest — the Stratoburst doesn't. Its 2.5-layer Ventia™ mechanical stretch fabric (bluesign® approved, 100% recycled) moves with your body rather than against it, so you're not fighting your jacket on the trail or the bike. Fully taped seams and a YKK® Aquaguard front zip lock out wind and rain completely, while the breathable construction stops you overheating mid-effort.

Ready for Whatever You've Got Planned

Whether it's a weekend camping trip, a long-distance hike, a morning run, or a dog walk that turned into an adventure — this jacket handles it. Large pit zips let you dump heat fast when the pace picks up. The adjustable hood cinches down over a helmet or a cap. And when the sun comes out, the whole jacket stuffs into its own chest pocket and disappears into your pack.
