Brush Puffer Jacket

Best Use: Inbounds, all mountain cruising

Built For: Powder days and colder temps

Protection: 100% seam sealed, 15k/15k waterproof & breathability rating

Fabric: 2L DWR treated

Benefits: Warm. Seals out snow. Hood fits over helmets.

Drawbacks: Breathability reduced by insulation.

The biggest appeal of the Brush Jacket is its ability to keep snow out and warmth in on days when you need it the most. It seals out snow incredibly well with wrist gaiters and a powder skirt. Insulation paired with a heavier fabric gives the jacket a hearty weight with a cozy feel. Interior pockets are spacious with room for goggles, lunch, or a beanie. The liner is smooth to the touch and features an intricate, colorful pattern.

Overall, this jacket is your best friend for powder days and colder conditions in the mountains. Its drawbacks stem from its insulation, since universally, insulation dampens breathability. As a result, it isn't ideal for skinning up slope or rigourous backcountry activity, but serves its purpose well for inbound laps.
