Cottonwoods Xpore Shell Jacket carries resort days into the backcountry
The Cottonwoods Xpore Shell Jacket runs on a 2-layer Xpore construction with a noticeably softer hand feel, without losing the durability that defines the Cottonwoods line. Its membrane is fully seam sealed, solvent-free, and carries no intentionally added PFAS, keeping it waterproof and breathable from groomed resort runs to backcountry skin tracks. A durable recycled polyester face fabric and recycled polyester taffeta lining back that durability up on the outside and in.
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
"Halfway up a skin track I dig through my pocket for a snack without breaking stride or unclipping my hip belt. The waist strap tunnels straight through behind the hand pockets, so my pack stays cinched and I still get to what I need."

Inside The Cottonwoods
Jacket
Shell Construction
2-layer face fabric with a liner feels noticeably softer, without losing its abrasion resistance.
Backpack Strap Tunnel
Integrated tunnel threads your pack's waist strap behind the hand pockets, keeping straps secure and pockets usable.
Drop Hood with Roll-Up Clip
Bilateral clips drop the hood away from the standalone collar, then a rear cinch holds it rolled up and out of the way.
Grid Tricot Collar
Grid tricot fabric channels moisture from your breath so the collar doesn't sit clammy against your neck.
Mesh-Lined Vents
Angled openings vent heat while mesh lining keeps snow out.
Low-Profile Powder Skirt
Stretch powder skirt provides protection when you need it, undetectable when you don't.
Goggle Wipe & Lens Storage
Removable goggle wipe and dedicated lens sleeve keep your optics accessible and protected.
Purpose-Built Pockets
Phone sleeve, key clip, and pass pocket keep essentials secure and within reach.
Front Snap Closure
A center snap secures the jacket on the way to and from the lifts, no zipping required.
Bibs
Self-Adhering Bib Straps
Self-adhering straps offer maximum adjustability with minimal hardware, plus low-profile comfort for full days.
Drop Seat With Two-Way Zip
Two-way zip drop seat makes bathroom breaks quick without removing layers.
Revamped Kick Panels
Kevlar® kick panels feel less stiff without sacrificing edge protection, and snap-adjustable gussets fit any boot.
Mesh-Lined Thigh Vents
Vents release heat while mesh lining blocks snow, even on storm days.
Purpose-Built Pockets
Dedicated pockets hold your phone and keys, while bellowed thigh pockets stay accessible sitting or standing.
Articulated Seams
Knee and hip seams curve for a flexed ski stance, so the fabric moves with you, not against you.
Adjustable Waist
A back-waist strap adjusts your fit, and women's styles add an extra waist snap for more adjustability.
Built-In RECCO® Reflector
A sewn-in RECCO® reflector adds extra peace of mind.

From weekend missions to dawn patrol sessions, every piece is designed to perform, last, and earn a permanent spot in your kit.
Built By Gearheads
We live and breathe the outdoors, so every stitch of BGA gear is made with a mission in mind. Designed in Park City at the foot of Utah’s Wasatch mountains—and tested by our Gearhead® Experts who use it every day—BGA styles are built to perform wherever the snow lands, trail leads or adventure calls.
