The Lab Coat Features
80/20 Backcountry/Resort
You spend much of your time on a skintrack in search of good snow, and this gear is designed to handle windy summits, spring tours, and long days in the mountains. Fabric choices are made to offer lightweight breathability and air permeability for high-output activities, like bootpacking a couloir. But if there's powder at the ski resort, you'll be there, and this gear can handle all-day liftline laps, too.

Winter Buyers Guide
"One tester likened the jacket to the indomitable Toyota Tacoma: “There are flashier rigs out there,” he said. “But ultimately you want one that gets you around the mountain without fail—that’s the Lab Coat.”
Freeskier Editors' Pick
"This jacket is made from Intuitive Perm HD fabric. Why is this important? Well, for most fabrics, in order to transfer moisture, they have to first get wet before they can get wicking. Which, in a backcountry setting means sweating and getting cold. Hard pass. With Intuitive Perm, that heat and vapor are released with every movement of the fabric. Oh, and it’s recycled. Nice!"

The Lab Coat Features
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.
