A brand known for catering to the snowboarding lifestyle, it should come as no surprise that DC is on this list. The Defy is a good option for those who want to stay on budget, but also look stylish while shredding up the slopes.
This jacket is great for riders who want to hit powder all day long. While those who ride in rainier conditions may not find this jacket up to speed in its waterproofing, it will hold up for riders who frequent places that get dryer snow.
This is a good budget option for riders who hit the mountain frequently and who are looking for an option that isn’t as high as others on this list. The quality in the jacket is good and will last wearers a long time, even with multiple uses throughout seasons. A true snowboard style, this jacket is a larger fit.
