Materials Breakdown

infiDRY 10K Waterproof / Breathable Fabric provides reliable protection from snow and moisture while allowing excess heat and sweat to escape during movement.

Body-Mapped infiLOFT Insulation places more insulation through the core and less in the sleeves and hood, keeping the body warm without restricting mobility or causing overheating.

2-Layer Construction balances durability and comfort, making the jacket suitable for all-day riding across a wide range of winter conditions.

Critically Taped Seams reinforce key exposure points to reduce water entry while keeping the jacket flexible and lightweight.

Mesh-Backed Underarm Vents allow riders to quickly dump heat during hikes, park laps, or warmer conditions.

Drop-Tail Hem and Articulated Fit improve coverage and freedom of movement, especially while riding, bending, and reaching.

PFAS-Free DWR Finish helps water bead off the fabric surface without relying on harmful chemicals.
