We gave our Gear Lovers one job:
Find the best and most popular products and review them.
Our review team always considers durability, price, quality, and value in their reviews.
When the sun is shining, and the Poma is humming at the base village, it’s time to head up to the resort and break out your favorite resort shell jacket. Shell-only jackets are an awesome option for warmer days or if you add your own mid-layer. Plus, they’re versatile and budget friendly.
A worthwhile shell should be light and simple but still, provide some essential tech features to keep you smiling while lapping your favorite runs. The North Face Dragline is one of our top resort shells, and for good reason.
The DryVent 3-layer fabric fends off moisture and releases excess heat, a fixed powder skirt keeps snow out, and it includes a ton of pockets so you can bring all your essentials.
Things we like:
-
Zip hand pockets with snap flaps; media port in right chest pocket; zip pass pocket with a goggles wipe -
Internal, elastic thumb loops at cuffs for easy layering
-
Classic North Face styling

Recycled materials

-
Runs large with a boxy fit -
Unique wrist cuff/thumb hole takes some getting used to
