Backcountry BGA Waas ALLIED Down Hooded Jacket - Men's

Premium warmth meets packable performance in the Waas ALLIED Down Hooded Jacket

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"This is the puffy I reach for when I want maximum warmth without extra bulk. It packs down small, layers well, and has smart details like big internal dump pockets for goggles and gloves."

Backcountry's own Waas ALLIED Down Hooded Jacket mixes good looks with good tech to help us layer up in the coldest weather. Made with Responsible Down Standard-certified 800-fill goose down, this puffy provides some of the best warmth for the weight on the market, and it packs down small into its own pocket for stash-and-go layering when we're skiing, snowboarding, and backpacking. Warm and packable, this is a new addition to our ski and snowboarding kits for playing in high alpine conditions.

Designed to support Jamaica’s athletes before and after runs, this layer offers warmth and comfort without restricting movement.
