As ski and snowboarding jackets go, they don’t get more advanced than the unisex A68-a TripleBaffle™ Parka. And when it comes to the tech, there’s a lot to unpack. Firstly, the TripleBaffle™ woven-baffle construction integrates three pieces of fabric into one to make alternating baffles that help eliminate cold spots and deliver high-level warmth. Then there’s the dual-side body gussets, which feature a woven 50/50 construction that provides breathable insulation to help regulate temperature during high-output activities. Three-layer DryVent™ fabric makes the sleeves and upper body completely waterproof, windproof and breathable, while bellowed hand pockets give you space to stash mountain essentials. But the features don’t stop there. We’ve added removable insulated panels in the lower body that allow you to adjust the jacket’s length – or you can use them as seating when you need to sit down on a cold, hard surface. And the helmet-compatible hood? Well, that speaks for itself. We’ve even brought urban street style to the slopes with its bold colourblocked design. This parka is part of our Circular Design initiative – a collection designed to minimise waste and pollution. Once you're done with it, recycle it back to us to keep the adventures going.
