Description
The Volcom Shelter 3D Stretch Jacket is a premium, high-performance women’s snowboard jacket designed for riders who demand ultimate mobility without sacrificing top-tier weather defense. Built with an articulated, tailored fit that contours naturally to the body, this jacket sets itself apart with full 3D stretch technology. Both the outer V-Science shell and the internal lining are engineered with 4-way stretch fabrics that flex dynamically together, giving you completely unrestricted upper-body movement when throwing tricks, carving hard, or reaching down to adjust bindings.
To handle severe mountain weather and heavy storm cycles, the Shelter Jacket delivers elite-level 20,000mm waterproofing and 20,000gm² breathability. The eco-conscious outer fabric is treated with a PFAS-free DWR finish to cleanly shed heavy snow, slush, and biting wind. To keep you comfortable on freezing mid-winter chairlift rides, the jacket is packed with targeted low-loft synthetic insulation (typically 60g in the core and 40g in the sleeves) that traps body heat efficiently without adding restrictive bulk or puffiness.
On-mountain functionality is engineered into every single detail. The jacket features fully taped seams to ensure absolute water tightness at critical stitch lines, along with mesh-lined zippered pit vents for instant temperature regulation on high-output days. Deep snow protection is optimized via Volcom’s patented Zip Tech® jacket-to-pant interface, allowing you to zip the jacket’s stretch adjustable powder skirt directly into any compatible Volcom snow pant to create an impenetrable barrier. Complete with comfortable Lycra wrist gaiters, a super suede chin guard, hidden toggle-cinch hood, and a convenient zippered pass pocket on the sleeve, this jacket is the ultimate resort weapon for demanding winter riders.
