This is an insulated soft-shell jacket with burly hard-shell reinforcements for skiers and snowboarders who go all-out in cold conditions. The supple, breathable Puff Rider has a ripstop polyester shell throughout the torso. A lightweight, highly com- pressible layer of 150-g. Thermolite'\\" Micro insulation warms even when wet to keep you carving when the mercury bottoms out. Quilted construction throughout the body and arms reduces bulk without sacrificing warmth. At the neck, an adjustable gasket protects chin from cold air and zipper rub. Finer points consist of a stretch powder skirt with gripper elastic, a removable, helmet-compatible hood, articulated elbows and an integrated drawcord at the bottom hem. With two insulated hand- warmer pockets, a left-sleeve pocket and two internal mesh pockets (one sized for a music player, with holes for routing cables to your helmet). Imported.
