Why We Like The Hemispheres Jacket

The Hemispheres Jacket is a new addition to Outdoor Research's stellar collection of winter gear. Whether you're in the frontcountry or backcountry, this jacket is built to perform. Its standout feature is the GORE-TEX membrane with fully sealed seams, which guarantees a dry experience throughout the winter season. Even during intense activity, the breathable nature of the membrane prevents overheating. In case you need extra ventilation, the side vents from hem to pit are there to help you cool down without compromising on protection.

When stormy weather strikes, the Hemispheres Jacket is prepared to shield you from the elements. It comes equipped with an adjustable storm hood, drawcord hem, and hook-and-loop cuffs, ensuring that the cold stays out.

But what sets this jacket apart is its innovative incorporation of Gore-Tex stretch panels at the hood and under the arms for ultimate flexibility. These panels, while offering the same breathable and waterproof protection as regular Gore-Tex, provide unparalleled stretch. This allows you to focus on carving fresh tracks without any limitations.
