If you're after a lightweight kit that still has a baggier look, Montec's Shell Arch bib and jacket deliver. The roomier fit leaves plenty of space for layering without feeling bulky, making it easy to adapt when temperatures drop or storms roll in. The 20k/20k waterproof-breathable fabric and fully taped seams provide dependable protection across a range of all-mountain conditions. If you do want a warmer option, the kit is available in an insulated version.
Ample storage space reduces the number of times you have to unzip your kit, giving you quick access to all your necessities. An elasticated snow skirt with button closures and snow gaiters with a non-slip cuff help keep snow out on powder days. The helmet-compatible hood is built extra deep so your face is fully protected on stormy days.
