Flylow Vector - Review 2025

New this year, Flylow dishes out the goods, giving us a jacket with durable hardshell protection, and a light layer of insulation for colder days.

Geared towards riding in-bounds, the Vector provides a little more in the way of durability, using burlier fabrics to extend the life of the jacket. Built out of a stout 150-denier 2-layer hardshell textile, Flylow has engineered a jacket that can withstand the beatings dealt out from trees, hard falls, or the ski area parking lot.

Being that the Vector is an 80/20 resort/backcountry jacket, it includes Flylow’s proprietary Greenloft insulation. The synthetic insulation is lightweight, packable, and provides warmth even when wet. 80 grams of the stuff ensures that you will stay warm without excess layering, but isn’t so over the top that you can’t use it out of bounds.

If you happen to venture into the side-country, 20k/20k waterproof/breathable fabric ensures that precip stays out while body moisture is wicked away. If the going ever gets too tough, pit zips have been added to provide additional breathability.

Truly a perfect ratio of warmth and protection, Flylow’s Vector jacket is a must for those who love riding resort laps and want to push into the sidecountry to find those untouched pow stashes.
