Nomad | 2027

Lightweight and stretchy, the Pertex fabric used in the Nomad kit is surprisingly durable and a great option for backcountry skiers who prioritize weight savings. The jacket and pant are fully seam-sealed and designed with practical features for long days on the skin track. With six pockets on the jacket and five on the bib, all of your essentials, and more, will have a home. Seamless shoulder construction ensures all-day comfort while you wear your backcountry pack, and pairs well with pack-friendly chest pockets that will gladly accept your skins, lap after lap. When you're feeling the heat on the uphill, the minimalist jacket can be easily stowed in your pack. But if you want to keep up the pace, you can simply unzip the oversized pit and thigh vents.

An adjustable and removable, four-way stretch powder skirt offers plenty of flexibility while Kevlar cuffs and internal gaiters keep the bottom of the bib protected from abrasions and moisture. The Nomad has a relaxed freeride look and the caramel-colored zippers add subtle styling where most brands would opt for black. If you're going to pull the trigger, keep in mind that the kit fits slightly on the larger side of the sizing spectrum.
