We updated our bestselling hardshell with an ultra - soft lining that pairs perfectly with the Backcountry Cottonwoods Gore - Tex Shell Jacket's burly construction. We built the jacket with a Pfas - free Gore - Tex ePE 2 - layer membrane to provide reliable waterproofing and high - performance breathability while we're hitting the send button off the biggest cliffs at the resort. The jacket comes fully equipped with an adjustable powder skirt, ergonomic stretch wrist gaiters, and angled underarm vents to maximize our comfort in the mountains, and the convertible half - drop hood shields us from the wind on blustering bluebird days.
