For the mountain professionals, pro skiers, and those who frankly just want a damn good jacket, the Armada Balfour GORE-TEX Pro 3L Jacket makes its return for yet another year. With an articulated cut, top-notch tech features, and the unmistakable style that only Armada could deliver in a technical piece, the 3-layer Balfour Jacket represents the pinnacle of ski outerwear design.
100% Nylon
GORE-TEX® Pro 3L – To meet the needs of Armada's athletes, mountain guides and serious backcountry skiers, GORE-TEX® Pro is used to provide tough, extremely breathable, waterproof and windproof protection in the harshest conditions. The new generation of GORE-TEX® Pro is engineered specifically for the intense work/rest cycles in backcountry skiing by using a new membrane to efficiently regulate temperature and moisture during climbs and descents.
Tech Fit – An articulated cut to improve mobility when skiing and hiking. Slightly narrower at the hem and forearm.
Radio Optimized Sleeve Pocket
Large Interior Mesh Pocket
External Access Music Pocket w/ Headphone Port
Large External Zippered Chest Pockets
Extra Long Two-Way Water-Resistant Pit Vents
100% Seam Sealed w/ 13 mm GORE-SEAM® Tape – Waterproof fabric will not keep you dry by itself. In order to complete the waterproofing of a garment, the seams with stitching must be sealed with a waterproof tape.
Helmet Compatible Hood w/ Reinforced Brim – Fully functional while wearing a helmet with a supported brim to keep your face sheltered from snow and rain.
Vector Hood System – The Vector Hood system provides the ability to easily react to changing mountain weather. The system utilizes a 3-way adjustment, accessible from inside and outside the jacket, and a quick release pull to instantly loosen the hood. All excess bungee stores out of your way, inside the jacket.
RECCO® Avalanche Rescue System – This avalanche rescue system is utilized worldwide to facillitate the rapid location of burials. The two parts -- reflector and detector -- enable rapid pinpointing using harmonic RADAR, but are not a substitute for transceiver use. Complementary in function, the RECCO® system increases the chance of being found in time.
Jacket-to-Pant Snap Interface – Like a onesie for the 21st century, Armada's jacket-to-pant snap interface provides a simple connection between your jacket's powder skirt and your pants.
Reinforced Extended Collar
Adjustable Cuffs – Velcro cuffs to adjust to tightness preference depending on the conditions.
Reactive Hem
Microfleece Chin Guard – Soft fleece sewn into top area of front zip for chin area comfort and warmth.
Gusseted Armpits
Lycra Wrist Gaiters – Stretch material next to skin to keep snow from sneaking in beyond the wrist.
4-Way Stretch Powder Skirt
