Quiksilver Quest Stretch 20K Snow Jacket – Men’s

The Quiksilver Quest Stretch 20K Snow Jacket is a men’s 20K waterproof stretch shell built for serious resort and freeride days, combining a fully taped 20K DryFlight®-level laminate, helmet-compatible hood, and underarm vents with a modern, slimmer fit that still moves like a regular jacket.

High-Performance 20K Stretch Shell

• 20K waterproof protection: A 20,000 mm waterproof membrane with C0 (PFAS-free) DWR shrugs off storm snow, wet chairlifts, and heavy, windblown conditions so you stay dry when the weather turns on.
• Breathable for active riding: 20K-class breathability is tuned for high-output days—lap the lift, bootpack, or hike-to lines without feeling swampy inside your shell.
• Stretch you can feel: The recycled polyester stretch plain-weave shell flexes with your body, so tweaking grabs, reaching for poles, or dipping into trees feels natural instead of restricted.
• Fully taped seams: Every critical seam is taped to back up the 20K fabric, blocking melt and wind-driven snow from sneaking in through stitching.
• Uninsulated shell for layering freedom: With no built-in insulation, you control your warmth with base and midlayers—run it lean for spring laps or stack heavy fleece for storm days.

On-Mountain Features That Matter

• Helmet-compatible hood: An adjustable hood fits cleanly over most snow helmets and cinches down to keep your vision clear in blowing snow.
• Underarm vents: Mesh-lined pit zips dump heat fast on traverses, bootpacks, and warm bluebird sessions without exposing your core to the wind.
• Removable powder skirt: Snap in the powder skirt on deep days to seal out blower; pop it out when you’re riding the park or heading to town.
• Wrist gaiters & cuffs: Stretch wrist gaiters and adjustable cuffs help lock out spindrift and seal the sleeves neatly over or under gloves.
• Smart pocket layout: A pass pocket on the wearer’s right sleeve, an interior goggle pocket, and multiple external pockets keep your pass, phone, and small essentials secure and exactly where you want them.
• YKK Aquaguard® zips: Water-resistant zippers at the front and key pockets add another layer of defense against soaking storms.

Fit, Feel & Style

• Modern, slimmer fit: A contemporary, slightly trimmer silhouette preserves full mobility while looking sharp on the hill and in town.
• Stretch comfort: The stretch shell and ergonomic patterning make it easy to move whether you’re carving hard, spinning, or reaching for a grab.

Who It’s For

The Quest Stretch 20K is ideal for riders who want a true 20K stretch shell instead of a bulky insulated jacket.
