Details
Most down jackets don’t breathe very well. (Picture a sleeping bag in a sauna.) Which means it’s very easy to overheat. We designed the Charlie Jacket to be the cold-weather protection you need on a blustery day but with a fabric and insulation that’s air permeable and breathable, so it’ll let heat and moisture out when you need it. The result is a jacket that’s comfortable and versatile in a wide variety of conditions. It comes with underarm vents for additional cooling and skier-specific features, like internal pockets to stash your stuff, a hood that fits over your helmet, and a removable powder skirt.

The 2023 Charlie Coat Features
80/20 Resort/Backcountry
You don't want to sacrifice durability when you're skiing and riding at the resort, which means you're willing to opt for heavier-duty fabrics and toasty insulation so you'll get all-day protection from the weather and the elements. Don't worry, we still offer ample venting and fabrics that release heat and moisture when you warm up, so if you want to take a hike or go for a ski tour, you won't overheat.

The 2023 Charlie Coat Features
Pertex Quantum
What good is down insulation inside a jacket if the exterior fabric isn’t doing anything in support? Pertex Quantum is like the insulation’s maid of honor—it’s there to make sure all the pieces fall into place. This tightly woven exterior fabric, constructed from fine yarns, has a light, soft feel that allows the insulation to fully loft. It traps still air to improve the warmth and efficiency of the insulating layer, and it’s coated with a DWR to dispel wind, rain, and snow.
High Performance DWR
We dare you to go stand in a shower or the next rainstorm with your favorite Flylow jacket on. See how the water molecules roll off the shell fabric? That’s due to our high-performance Durable Water Repellent, a polymer coating added to fabric that makes it hydrophobic, meaning moisture beads up and rolls off, like marbles on glass.
Intuitive Perm HD
Our most air-permeable fabric that’s custom-built for high-motion activities, so heat can escape your body before you sweat, regulating your temperature. ThePerm is a dry system that instantly vents water vapor, like sweat, without requiring excessive body heat or dampness first. For the Perm HD, we combined long-lasting durability with optimal waterproofing, at 20K/.02 cfm, which releases heat before you sweat and is made from 100% recycled materials.
Responsible Down Standard Certified
Responsible Down Standard, or RDS, means every feather used in our 800- or 600-fill down insulation has been third-party certified for safety standards, ensuring that all geese and ducks are raised by certified farms that meet the highest levels of animal welfare compliance and supply chain traceability.
