Whether you're fat biking or exploring in the backcountry this winter,
you'll benefit from the fruits of our collaboration with 686. In this
case, we're talking about the all-new 686 x Specialized Women's Tech
Insulator.
Starting at the exterior, you'll find that the Tech Insulator is
constructed from a woven fabric that's been given a DWR coating, making
it water-resistant. Moving beyond this layer of the jacket, we've
incorporated 100g Primaloft® insulation to keep you consistently warm
both under effort and when relaxed. Primaloft® was chosen for its
ultralight weight, breathability, pack-ability, and high
warmth-to-weight ratio. Essentially, this all adds up to a dependable
insulation layer that will never leave you feeling clammy or cold.
Furthering this, the jacket includes an adjustable hood for when
conditions get particularly cold, as well as Lycra® wrist gaiters that
interface perfectly with gloves. And knowing that this jacket will most
likely be used in nasty conditions, it also features a foldout spray
skirt and 3M® reflective trims that will increase your visibility to
other riders and motorists in low-light conditions.
In terms of fit and feel, underarm stretch panels have been incorporated
in order to promote a complete, uninhibited range of motion while
riding or hiking the bike. It's also been given our Relaxed Fit, which
means that it will fit loosely on the body to leave plenty of room for
additional layers.
Storage of your ride essentials will be handled by internal mesh storage
pockets, and there's also a SWAT⢠access pocket at the rear for use
with our SWAT⢠bib shorts or other SWATâ¢-equipped pieces in the 686 x
Specialized line of clothing.
