Why We Love The Carbide Jacket:

Experience ultimate protection against the elements with the Outdoor Research Carbide Jacket. This low bulk, versatile and stylish jacket is perfect for long days exploring the resort. Its 3-layer Pertex Shield construction, combined with fully sealed seams, ensures waterproof and breathable performance even in the harshest winter storms. No matter the conditions, the zippered underarm vents allow you to quickly dump excess heat after hiking for your turns. The wire-brimmed Halo Hood provides reliable visibility when the snow is falling sideways, and the powder skirt prevents snow from sneaking in when you take a tumble.
