What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: "This is my go-to touring shell for fast ascents and deep descents. It’s breathable, simple, and it doesn’t overdo it with features—just what I need in big terrain."For those of us who live to move fast and light in the high alpine, the Freebird 3L Jacket is a backcountry staple. Designed around the demands of touring and high-mountain ascents, this shell focuses on essentials: durable weatherproof protection, freedom of movement, and simplicity that doesn’t skimp on performance. Crafted from 20K/20K Toray Dermizax, the jacket offers outstanding breathability and waterproofing for long days spent skinning, climbing, or transitioning in the harshest conditions. Thoughtful features like the helmet-compatible hood, articulated sleeves, and Recco® reflector offer all-day comfort and safety. With its lightweight feel and strategic storage, the Freebird Jacket keeps our mind on the route ahead, not the gear on our back.
