Specs
Key Features for Fun and Function on the Mountain:
This jacket comes equipped with infiDRY® 10K fabric, offering a robust 10,000mm waterproof rating and 10,000gm2 breathability, plus a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish. This means you'll stay dry from snow and light rain, and comfortable as moisture vapor escapes, crucial for variable conditions at resorts like Snowbird or Park City. Critically taped Bemis® seams add an extra layer of defense against moisture intrusion at key stress points.
For warmth, the PBR Cooler Jacket features infiLOFT® insulation, typically with 80g in the body, 60g in the sleeves, and 40g in the hood. This body-mapped insulation provides warmth where you need it most while allowing for comfortable mobility on the slopes.
What truly sets this jacket apart are its innovative, party-friendly features:
- Insulated Cooler Front Pockets: These are designed specifically for beverage storage, keeping your favorite cans chilled and ready for après-ski or mid-day parking lot sessions.
- Back Inner Pockets for Beverage Storage: Expanding on the front cooler pockets, additional internal pockets often allow you to carry even more cans (some versions boast capacity for up to 11 or 12 cans!), ensuring you're always stocked.
- Removable Bottle Opener Keychain: A convenient detail that means you're always ready to crack open a cold one.
- Stay Up Front Koozie Pocket: Some models include a dedicated koozie pocket to keep your current beverage insulated while you ride.
