It's time for you next alpine journey to begin with the Burton AK 2L GORE-TEX Embark Jacket - the perfect tool for getting you through the most difficult mountain weather conditions. Constructed with 2-layer GORE-TEX, this jacket seals out water and is incredibly breathable at the same time. PrimaLoft® Silver insulation provides lightweight warmth, even when wet, while the articulated fit fits just right, from the boot pack to the bar.
Burton-Exclusive CSF drydye® Fabric [drydye® Black Colorway] – Burton's new waterless dyeing process saves up to 25 liters of the world's most precious resource per jacket and reduces chemical and energy consumption by half. Color is applied through a gas injection process that then liquefies the dye and recycles the clean carbon dioxide back into the system.
Plain Weave Fabric – All Other Colorways
GORE-TEX 2L – Ideal for a wide range of outdoor activities, the GORE-TEX membrane is bonded to the outer fabric only. The benefit: the separate lining inside improves wearing comfort and versatility.
PrimaLoft® Silver Insulation | 60g – Originally developed for the military, PrimaLoft's extremely lightweight and low-profile core structure suspends millions of air particles in a microfiber mesh. These microscopic air particles repel water while trapping heat to keep you warmer and drier in the most demanding conditions, even after repeated washings.
Living Lining™ – When you're warm, breathable pores expand to release excess warmth and prevent overheating. When you're cold, breathable pores shrink to trap body heat and keep you warmer for longer.
