"This jacket is midlayer perfection. I'm impressed by its stretchiness and really appreciate how cozy it keeps me without making me overheat or making my hardshell feel too small." —Gearhead Expert JoWe designed our Backcountry Peale Primaloft Stitch-Free Baffle Stretch Jacket to keep the heat turned up without adding bulk or restricting movement when armoring ourselves against midwinter's icy temps. The high-stretch fabrication and stitch-free baffles follow our lead, while the lofty synthetic fill stops the numbing air from stealing our body heat. On the skintrack, the interior dump pockets stash our shell mitts and snacks. And when preparing for the drop, our hardshell slips easily over the streamlined build, and our skins find sanctuary inside the chest pocket.
