Obermeyer Men’s Foraker Shell Jacket

DESCRIPTION:
Shells take advantage of technical layering while providing unmatched engineered performance in a lightweight and versatile piece of equipment. 

FEATURES:

FABRIC: HydroBlock Elite 100% Polyester Plain Weave 2-Way Stretch

HydroBlock Prime: Obermeyer independently third party tests all of its technical fabrics for performance verification. Our high performance specialty fabrics use fully coated hydrophobic laminations and a superior DWR polymer coating for stain protection and coating integrity. HydroBlock Prime resists up to 25,000mm before water penetration while allowing 25,000 grams of water vapor to pass through within a 24-hour time frame.

Fully Seam Sealed: Seams are a weak point when trying to create a completely waterproof garment. The tiny puncture holes can potentially allow water to penetrate the fabric. Seam sealing is the application of waterproof tape to the inside of the garment that aids in waterproofing.

Recco Rescue Reflector: Recco is an avalanche rescue system utilized worldwide to facilitate the rapid location of burials. The two parts, reflector and detector, enable rapid pinpointing using harmonic radar but are not a substitute for transceiver use. Complementary in function, the Recco system increases the chance of being found in time.

Control Zone Ventilation: Strategically placed adjustable openings and closures for core thermal regulation. Different placements allow you to release and control your body temperature. Underarm vent zips, thigh vents, jacket closures all insure the greatest flexibility while maintaining waterproof/windproof closures to meet the most challenging weather conditions and aerobic exertion.

Full-Motion Fit: Full-Motion Fit makes use of stretch fabrics, insulation and lining. Obermeyer integrates stretch material into a garment’s lining and insulation so as to conform to the outside stretch fabric’s movement. We have found that stretch is invaluable for proper fit and range of motion for sports activities and the recent technological integration of stretch into various fabrics allows for unsurpassed uniform performance.

Integrated, Water Resistant Powder Skirt: On deep powder days an extra barrier of snow protection can be invaluable. Bottomless, overhead, and filling in on every lap – that’s what were talking about. The powder skirt works like an extra gasket against snow shots finding their way to the inside of a jacket and pant waistline. No need to have a miserable mid-section when you’re out ripping about.

Full-Motion Articulation: Garments at Obermeyer are patterned for ease of movement. Extra length in sleeves and pre-curved arms are crafted to accommodate the arms’ range of motion.
