Key Details:

- Durable nylon fabric with a DWR finish offers weather resistance and sheds light rain and snow.

Outer Shell Fabric Information
- Solid Colors: Crafted from 30D ripstop nylon, this lightweight, DWR-treated fabric offers excellent breathability and abrasion resistance — the perfect balance for a versatile puffy jacket shell.
- Multicam & Woodland: Made from 40D shadow box ripstop nylon, this lightweight, DWR-treated fabric provides good breathability. However, due to its reduced abrasion resistance, frequent or aggressive use may lead to premature wear.
- AOR1: Constructed with 70D Taslan, this midweight, DWR-treated fabric offers exceptional durability. While it is slightly stiffer and less breathable than the solid color options, it is the most rugged choice for demanding conditions.
