If you like to send it everywhere from the park and resort groomers, to backcountry booters and skin tracks, you probably covet a jacket that's as versatile as the places you ski. Take a gander at the FlyLow Knight Jacket, a utilitarian jacket if there ever was one, built for a person who skis hard and puts their equipment to work. The Knight jacket boasts an impressive 3-layer Intuitive hard-shell that keeps out the cold and wind, with a DWR treatment to shed wet and heavy storms. It manages to capture both the categories of light weight and heavy duty, by packing in maximum technology into a shell. Light weight, burly materials come together for this magical combination, but you'll want to pair it with a layer or two on the chilly days.
On those chilly days when you want to seal out the elements, a fully-adjustable, helmet-compatible hood is there for you to keep the piercing and ice from freezing your noggin with the pull of a draw-cord that cinches down tightly. The shell is sealed with waterproof YKK zips that keep water from seeping in from outside. Two hand pockets and an easy access chest pocket are also decked with YKK zippers, so your phone and keys can stay water free, and you'll have quick access to your snack stash or tunes when you need it. 10-inch underarm zippers seal out the elements when closed, but allow breathing when you're heart gets pumping and you start breaking a sweat.
