For those sub-zero days on the skin track and burly, mid-winter resort days, the Recon Insulated Shell utilizes zoned insulation to trap body heat in key areas while featuring fully taped, four-way stretch BD.dry™ shell fabric. With ample storage and a removable powder skirt, the Recon Insulated Shell is a versatile pick for frigid conditions.
The shell’s durable 4-way stretch fabric is combined with our waterproof/breathable solution, BD.dry™ to deliver a jacket ready for all-day winter missions. With one chest pocket to hold essentials, two hand pockets, and two mesh internal drop pockets for skins or extra layers, the Recon features ample storage, while the jacket’s removable powder skirt adds versatility for variable conditions. The Recon also has pit zip vents for easy temperature regulation on the skin track, a waterproof front zipper, and a ski-helmet-compatible hood for added protection on storm days. Internal RECCO® technology makes you searchable.

"I absolutely love this jacket - unlike many other brands I've tried, this jacket had plenty of room for my hips without being too big elsewhere. The fabric is flexible and perfect for skiing. And the waterproofing has been great so far."
"I LOVE my new jacket. So comfy, cute, and the perfect layer. I sized up and am really glad I did but I do like a baggier look."
