You wash your dog, you wash your bike, you wash your car, why wouldn't ya wash your waterproof outerwear? Giving your technical shell jackets and pants a good schvitz helps improve performance and extends the life your gear. We love nothing more than seeing a high-mileage jacket that's been well cared for by its owner.  Specific care instructions come inside each garment but for the Youtube Generation we've created this handy video for sprucing up your dirty hard and soft-shell pieces. Two-layer garments can be washed in...

With the first major winter system is rolling through the Rockies, our Instagram feed has blown up in the last few days. Our pal @FriscoPowderAddict is already getting after it. The patrollers at Silverton are too. Just seeing resorts like Snowbird, Jackson, Big Sky and CB dressed up in white makes us want to crack a beer and start waxing our skis. It's great to have you back winter! Here's to a great season. View this post on Instagram 10/9/18 Ski day...

Mad Trees Presents We Heard You Need Gloves A short film coming to computer screens, phone screens, and few select film festivals this November, We Heard You Need Gloves follows the Mad Trees crew during a season at ski area near and dear to our hearts, Mt. Baker. While you can expect a healthy dose of that legendary PNW powder, the film will also dive into the friendships forged over a season of storm chasing. Basically it's all the stuff we love about skiing, the mountains,...

For some reason I always thought the riding in South America was less about fun and more about a sort of penance carried out by those who insist on riding every month of the year. Boy, was I wrong.

We created a whole new fabric for this year's line of outerwear. Called the Perm, it's not that regrettable perm your mom got in the 80s. Nope. It's a highly permeable (hence the name) fabric, that we sourced from Intuitive Fabrics, specifically for high-motion activities like ski touring, bootpacking, and lugging too much gear through the ski-area parking lot.  This year's supremely lightweight Cooper Jacket is made from the Perm, and Powder Magazine recently called it one of the best men's...

You don't have to be a dad to appreciate a good rain jacket, but if you do have kids, then you especially need a rainproof shell for puddle-stomping outings. Writer Doug Schnitzspahn recently wrote a piece for Fatherly about the Best Men's Rain Jackets of the Year and included the Flylow Rainbreaker.  "Light and simple, this multi-purpose zip up has the protective fabric to ward of a  sudden squall but it truly excels as that jacket you toss in your day pack or...

Whether it's fall or the dead of winter, you need a good layering system that does double duty. A lightweight insulated piece you can toss on under a shell or wear on its own on a crisp autumn day. A pair of leggings that can double as long underwear under ski pants or on their own to a yoga class. Freeskier Magazine included the Flylow Ronan Jacket, an insulated anorak, and our popular Shreggings in their annual Winter Gear Guide. ...

A few winters back, I planned a ski trip to Nelson, British Columbia, months in advance. A late February ski trip to interior BC was sure to be powder-filled, right? Wrong. It hadn't snowed in weeks and rain had turned the mountain into an ice skating rink. The lesson I learned: If you re going to plan a ski trip and you want to do your best to ensure at least decent snow conditions or ideally, powder wait as long as you...
