Backcountry CrestCruiser Insulated Jacket - Men's

Reliable insulation for frigid resort days with the CrestCruiser Insulated Jacket

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I hate being cold on the mountain. That's why I suit up in the CrestCruiser Insulated Jacket every time I hit the hill. I stay warm and comfortable no matter how cold the conditions get."

We made the Backcountry CrestCruiser Insulated Jacket so we can stay warm on frigid lift rides and the peaks of icy mountaintops while still offering a full set of protective features for the long ride down. The flexible jacket is made with PrimaLoft Black insulation that traps warmth close to our bodies and maintains its heating abilities even while wet. The waterproof 2-layer membrane is exceptionally breathable and PFAS-free*, and in case we need a little more cooling, the zippered underarm vents keep air moving while we work up a sweat carving across the corduroy.

*made without intentionally added per- and polyfluorinated substances; may contain trace amounts

Skiers aren’t the only fans of our insulated kits. Trusted by the Jamaica Bobsleigh & Skeleton Federation, the CrestCruiser kit delivers reliable warmth and mobility for athletes training and competing in cold, high-speed environments.

PrimaLoft® Black Insulation

Synthetic insulation provides reliable warmth on cold resort days and continues to insulate when exposed to moisture. Balanced fill keeps you comfortable on long lift rides without feeling bulky on the descent.

10K / 15K Waterproof Breathability

A waterproof, breathable membrane with fully sealed seams blocks snow and wind while allowing heat and moisture to escape. Built for full resort days in changing winter conditions.

Targeted Venting

Strategically placed zippered vents release excess heat during high-output runs and help regulate temperature throughout the day. Easy climate control when conditions or effort levels change.

About The Backcountry Brand

Backcountry began in 1996 with two skiers, a stack of avalanche beacons, and a garage in Park City, Utah. Our roots were humble, and we've grown since then, but our vision is still clear: to sell the best outdoor gear—and to create gear that’s even better through our very own gear and apparel brand.
