Whether you are skiing deep powder down tight couloirs in the French Alps or going skiing touring in Scotland. Having a lightweight, breathable, yet highly waterproof jacket will not only protect you from the elements in the mountains but also make your time more enjoyable.

The North Face - FuseForm Brigandine

A new addition to The North Face’s Steep Series for winter 2016, the FuseForm Brigandine 3L jacket is a hard-shell for serious backcountry skiing and snowboarding. Made from The North Face’s 3-layer Hyvent fabric with four-way stretch, it’s waterproof, breathable and warm, with reinforced panelling in high-abrasion zones for added durability. This is made possible by the award-winning FuseForm construction throughout the jacket, which fuses the seams together without the need for stitching and taping, massively increasing weight savings and waterproofing. Features-wise, the Brigandine keeps it simple with an adjustable, helmet compatible hood, a stretch, grippy powder skirt and wrist gaiters to keep the snow at bay, while the underarm zip vents mean you can easily dump heat on long skin-ups and warm days.
