Our most nimble, trimmest-fitting soft shells for the mythic ice crag or endless ski tour, Core Skins deliver superb backcountry perform- ance with refreshing simplicity. This season, we've lightened the stretch-woven torso fabric and added a supple, effective neck gasket to keep out spindrift. The shell is bonded to warm, breathable and compressible Regulator\"' Rlm insulation. Finer points include water-resistant, easy-gliding Delugem DWR zip- pers; slightly longer pockets with thin-and-light zippers for core ventilation, and anatomically contoured Centaur Cuffs that cover the back of the hand without front-side bulk. A removable between-the-Iegs strap keeps the jacket from riding up when you've hit your rhythm. The women's version is contoured for a feminine fit. Imported.
