All-Season Warmth with 20K Weather Protection

• Thermagraph® Warm Lining System: Strategic body-mapped insulation adds warmth where riders need it while allowing better breathability through active zones.
• infiDRY® 20K Waterproofing: 20,000mm waterproof protection helps block snow, wind, and storm weather through powder days, resort laps, and variable winter conditions.
• 15K Breathability: 15,000g breathability helps move moisture away from the body during active skiing, snowboarding, and hiking.
• PFAS-Free DWR: The outer fabric uses a PFAS-free durable water-repellent finish to help shed moisture.
• Heat and Fog Management: Air-Flo™ underarm vents release excess heat, while Vader Vents™ help reduce goggle fogging when the jacket is zipped high.
• Fully Featured Mountain Build: Helmet-compatible hood, attached adjustable powder skirt with Lycra® stretch panel, Pant Jacket Connect™ System, Hood Link System, Glove Link™ inner thumb grip, phone heater pocket, pass pocket, and internal goggle storage keep the jacket ready for full days on snow.

Ideal For

Men who ski, snowboard, travel, or want one reliable winter jacket for powder days, park laps, cold chairlift rides, spring sessions, and everyday resort use. The Hydra™ Thermagraph® Jacket is best for riders who want more waterproofing than a basic 10K jacket, warmer performance than a shell alone, and technical storage without moving into a premium GORE-TEX price point.
