The Skytour AscentShell™ Jacket is versatile, lightweight, and waterproof, perfect for backcountry touring, ski mountaineering, and other high-aerobic activities in cold weather. Constructed with AscentShell™ technology, an electrospun membrane that is waterproof and windproof while still air-permeable and stretchy, the Skytour AscentShell™ Jacket is supremely lightweight and breathable. The Halo Hood fits over a helmet, and multiple hood adjustments and wire brim keep the elements out. Thoughtful design features include pit zips to dump heat, a forearm ski pass pocket, and a brushed tricot chin guard for comfort. The Skytour AscentShell™ Jacket is the perfect gear for those who want the best of both worlds - the breathability of a softshell with the waterproof protection of a hard shell.
