Rush Jacket

The Rush Jacket has combined a durable 80 denier 3L GORE-TEX shell with ski specific features, making a product that is a must for any backcountry aficionado.

While the N80p-X 3L GORE-TEX PRO is less robust than that of the 100d GORE that comes with the Sabre SV, the benefit is that this jacket is both lighter and more breathable. Additional airflow is provided by WaterTight™ pit zippers, and features like an integrated powder skirt and Slide ‘n Loc™ attachments help keep snow out of unwanted places.

An articulated pattern and classic fit allow for this shell to be worn comfortably over additional layers. A StormHood™ can be worn over a helmet, offering full protection without compromising visibility.

With the full lineup of ski specific features and a weight of 1 lb 4.8 oz, we think that this jacket is perfect for those who want to dive into backcountry skiing and want a shell that will provide protection from the elements and packability.
