The material is Patagonia's proprietary fabric, which is flexible, easy to move in, and has reliable waterproof and breathable properties. The simple and functional design does not cause stress in the backcountry where you have to act in harsh conditions. Of course, it is made with recycled materials and is environmentally conscious. This
is my favorite wear as a backcountry guide in Niseko.

FW. This garment is designed with backcountry skiing in mind. The silhouette is smart when worn, and it has a slightly mature feel. Both the jacket and bib pants feature gusseted pockets. The
jacket length is shorter than typical overseas brands, making it very easy to move in. The bib pants have pockets large enough to store skins and also feature laser-cut ventilation. This is a highly recommended garment for those who want ski wear that no one else is wearing.
