The shell is equipped with an ergonomic fit that gives the wearer a greater range of motion than a traditional jacket. The coat also features a 3-point adjustable hood, which can be pulled over a helmet or toque. There is even an interior google pocket that gives skiers and snowboarders a handy storage space.
