About this product
Designed for hardcore, snow-minded athletes who appreciate retro styling and rugged, technical construction, this innovative jacket is the lightest jacket in the Steep Tech™ collection. Part of the collection designed with extreme downhill pioneer Scot Schmidt, this lightweight, storm-resistant jacket features a removable, stowable hood, adjustable fixed belt, and uncompromising ruggedness.
According to Scot, the geometric Steep Tech™ logo is derived form something Joseph Campbell (an American mythologist) used in his lectures. He says, "I believe he called it the ‘Sphere of the Physique'. It represents a healthy balance between the mind, body and soul. The outer circle represents the body. The center dot represents your soul. The line separates your ego from your source (soul)."
