Men's Burton [ak] Hover GORE-TEX C-Knit 3L Stretch Jacket

Lightweight and Packable GORE-TEX 3L Shell for Touring and All-Weather Riding

The Men's Burton [ak] Hover GORE-TEX C-Knit 3L Stretch Jacket is one of the lightest and most packable shell jackets in the [ak] collection. Its three-layer GORE-TEX® construction with C-Knit Backer provides reliable protection from snow, rain and wind while maintaining excellent breathability. The lightweight stretch fabric moves naturally with your body, and the jacket packs down small enough to take up minimal space in your backpack.

Characteristics

The jacket is made from lightweight GORE-TEX C-Knit Stretch 3-Layer Nylon 30D Plain Weave fabric. The C-Knit construction feels soft and comfortable on the inside while maintaining the durability, waterproofing and breathability expected from technical GORE-TEX 3L outerwear. The Regular Fit, Articulated Patterning and No-Lift Underarm Gusset provide freedom of movement while riding, touring and using poles.

Lightweight Construction, Ventilation and [ak] Functionality

The minimalist construction is designed to keep weight as low as possible without sacrificing essential functionality. Pit Zip™ ventilation allows excess heat to escape quickly during climbs and intensive riding. The StormForm Fulltime Contour™ Hood with Cohaesive™ adjustment provides precise fit in difficult weather, while the removable powder skirt can connect to compatible Burton pants.
