Why We Like The 686 Hydrastash Insulated Jacket
Stay warm, stay dry, stay hydrated. The Hydrastash Insulated Jacket features a reservoir system built right into its own powder skirt so our youngster can spend more time on the mountain and less time taking drink breaks in the lodge. This patent-pending feature includes a BPA-free Microbite valve and micro-tubing for a safe, low-profile design.
Details:
Ski and snowboard jacket offers all-day comfort with its breathable and waterproof infiDry membrane. The synthetic insulation provides efficient warmth, while the water-resistant face fabric sheds light moisture. Critically sealed seams block any seeping moisture, ensuring maximum protection. The jacket also includes multiple pockets for storing all the mountain essentials. The Youth Evolution system allows for the addition of length to the sleeves, ensuring a perfect fit.
