The North Face made the A-CAD FUTURELIGHT Jacket for skiers and snowboarders who don't bat an eye at long backcountry ascents and in-bounds bootpacks. Its FUTUERLIGHT membrane maintains reliable waterproofing on powder days, and it's extremely breathable (ie. air-permeable) to keep comfy on snowy ascents. Stretchy fabric and an articulated fit keep us moving through pow or up icy crud.
