"It's obvious that every single detail was carefully designed with touring in mind. It's hard to pick a favorite feature of this jacket, but I most appreciate the roomy, easy-to-access pockets, the exaggerated high-low hem, and the half-drop hood." Gearhead Expert Sam
We wanted a hardshell that knows how to climb just as well as it knows how to shred, and so we created the Backcountry Cardiac Xpore 3L Touring Jacket. The articulated fit and high-low hem release our shoulders and hips from restrictions as we power up the mountain, while the sleeve vents expel excess heat, and the grid-tricot-backed collar and chin guard shield our face from icy crosswinds without the chafe. As we transition, we slip our skins inside one of the front, backpack-friendly pockets to keep them from freezing up on the descent, and we cinch the hem and hood tight for powder-spray protection throughout our hard-earned turns. Performance aside, we also made sure this shell was constructed with recycled fabrics and a PFAS-free* eco-nanoporous membrane to protect nature's playgrounds.
