Jump to: Our Verdict / Features / Specifications

Built for speed and movement in the mountains, it’s lightweight, stretchy, with a refined cut, made for days on the go.

Montane says: 

Experience unparalleled freedom of movement with the Montane women’s Tenacity Nano jacket, our lightest ever softshell jacket.

Equipped with a non-fluorocarbon DWR treatment, it provides reliable protection from light showers. The minimalist design, featuring offset seam intersections and a streamlined construction, minimises bulk and maximises comfort.

Finished with a bonded zip placket and harness-compatible hand pockets, this super lightweight softshell jacket is adaptable for long days in the mountains.

Our Verdict

The Tenacity Nano Jacket is Montane’s lightest softshell to date. At 245g (UK12), it’s a strong option for fast hiking, scrambling, or transitional conditions where breathability matters most. The GRANITE Stretch Nano fabric is soft against the skin, moves well with you, and sheds light wind and drizzle thanks to its PFC-free DWR. The smooth face resists abrasion better than expected for such a light piece, and it dries quickly after exertion or passing showers.

Without the hood, it layers more cleanly under a shell or over a baselayer, and the clean collar design keeps bulk down. The cut is trim with a slightly higher hem, which is ideal under a hipbelt or harness but may sit short if you’re after fuller coverage. The bonded zip placket and minimalist seams keep weight and bulk low, and the hand pockets are placed well for use with a pack.
