After 14 years in the industry Airblaster doubled down on their ever-popular Airblaster Beast Nicolette Jacket, outfitting it with the best tech features including proprietary Vortex™ fabric and a 30K/20K membrane, providing revved-up moisture management for days when "dark and stormy" feels like an understatement. Fully taped seams, zonal insulation, and a longer length make this the perfect piece for steeling against the elements, ducking into powder stashes, and scoring sustained warmth on days when you'd rather slip into an ice bath than take another spin on the ol' chair. This plus an Aquapel™ finish -- Airblaster's environmentally-friendly DWR alternative -- make the Nicolette Jacket an investment you won't regret throwing down on.
Vortex™ – Lightweight, densely woven Vortex™-laminated outer fabric is a proprietary Airblaster combination that outperforms even the coveted Back Door Tex. The tight structure of the micro dobby weave lends strength and natural water shedding ability, while keeping finished weight to an enlightened 152 g/m².
Nanotex® Aquapel™ – Nanotex® Aquapel™ is Durable Water Repellent (DWR) on nuclear steroids. Mimicking the evolution-engineered water repellency built into the coats of wilds animals, Aqualpel™ modifies fabric on a molecular level, attaching hydrophobic molecules to individual fibers. The result of this proprietary process is a water repellent outer shield with unmatched function and durability. Aquapel™ is completely PFOA and FC free, making it among the most ecologically friendly fabric coating processes. Superior waterproofing starts with superior DWR, and Nanotex® Aquapel™ is simply the best.
30,000 mm Waterproofing / 20,000 g Breathability – The measurable performance comes from the advanced backing laminate, which provides unmatched waterproofing and breathability.
Zonal 100 / 80 Insulation – 100 g Body / 80 g Sleeves
Waffle Wick – Waffle Wick is strategically placed to add a little extra warmth and a lot of wicking power where you need it most. Its waffle grid structure provides micro air channels for the perfect balance of warmth, air circulation, and moisture dispersion.
