The GORE-TEX membrane is created as a series of pores. Each pore is 20,000 times smaller than a water drop, yet large enough for vapor to pass through. This creates the ultimate membrane for keeping the inside of your garment dry while still allowing moisture and perspiration to pass through, effectively regulating your body temperature while keeping you comfortable inside your jacket or pants. GORE-TEX guarantees you will stay dry and warm in any condition, for the life of your garment. All GORE-TEX fabrics are bluesign® approved, meeting the highest environmental standards.

Originally invented for the U.S special forces, Polartec® Alpha® active insulation continuously releases excess body heat before it builds to cause saturation and discomfort. Though lightweight and exceptionally durable, its warmth regulation and advanced breathability keep you comfortable in changing conditions.

This patented, adaptive quality is made possible through Alpha’s lofted fibers connected to a solid mesh core. And since Polartec® Alpha® is inherently hydrophobic, it resists all moisture and dries incredibly fast. It is used in the GORE-TEX PRO jacket and bib for the most extreme adventures.

Cross-venting is achieved through deliberately designed zippered vent placement, much like windows in a house. Open one vent and air will enter and circulate. But if two are opened air will flow through the garment creating a cross-breeze that evaporates moisture and rapidly cools the body.

Hydrastash® is an exclusive, patented hydration system discreetly hidden inside your garment. It is simple to use, sustainable, and safe. On demand access to water is provided even when you’re on the lift or in the backcountry without having to carry a bulky water bottle. The system is strategically designed around your center of balance when full and once empty it is nearly weightless. Our pro team gives it their full trust as it is designed to bend upon impact – not break. Hydrastash® is also a part of the solution to decrease the single use waste in the form of water cups at ski resorts.

Developed around your body in motion, our exclusive Thermagraph® technology places separate zones of insulation and breathability strategically throughout your jacket or pants. These zones work together to create an ultra-lightweight, warm, and highly breathable lining that increases versatility of your jacket and pants. Insulation zones are placed where your body needs warmth the most - your vital organs, spine, knees, and seat are surrounded by breathable, moisture wicking mesh to allow for the utmost moisture evaporation and body temperature regulation.

RECCO® technology enables rapid directional pinpointing of your precise location using harmonic radar compatible with a multitude of search instruments making you searchable to the rescuers. The reflectors are lightweight passive transponders that require no power or activation to function. RECCO® reflectors are designed to last a lifetime and do not age or wear out. If not mechanically damaged, they will last forever. The integrated RECCO® avalanche system is utilized by more than 600 rescue organizations worldwide to assist in efficient location of burials.

BOA® compatible leg gaiters allow you to tighten your top boa on the fly, without letting the elements get to you.
