Zip-Tech® Jacket to Pant Interface – Whether waist deep in the backcountry or trying to one-up yourself in the park, nothing lowers motivation faster than snow jammed down your pants and up the back of your jacket. Volcom's originally designed and heavily imitated jacket-to-pant interface allows you to zip the powder skirt of virtually any Volcom Jacket to any Volcom pant, keeping snow out and heat in with no restriction of movement. Falling has never been more enjoyable.

Face Tech™ – "One less thing to remember," Face Tech™ is the first integrated face mask of its kind: detachable face mask that clips to the inside of Volcom hoods. The innovative design easily pulls over your head without having to unzip your jacket. The use of fleece and mesh offers protection and breathability superior to any balaclava or neck gaiter. The tension of Face Tech™ is adjustable via a pull cord found externally on the back of the hood.
