Design Details

  • Closeup view of Catalyst Snow Shell collar

    A clean center-front packet with a Velcro® closure hides a weatherproof zipper. There are also weatherproof zippers at the chest, hand, and back pockets, as well as on the sleeve pass pocket.

  • Closeup view of Catalyst Snow Shell underarm vents

    Pit zips help with breathability on spring days or when you’re hiking for turns.

  • Closeup view of Catalyst Snow Shell snow skirt

    The Catalyst features a removable snow skirt for big powder days. Additionally, there is a D-ring for gloves on the interior hem as well as an interior google pocket.

When we wear-tested the Catalyst, we weren’t sure we could wait the year for it to come out.

The three-point hood is helmet compatible and can be adjusted to your ideal fit thanks to Cohaesive® cord locks. The Catalyst Snow Shell also comes integrated with a RECCO® rescue reflector at the hood brim for ultimate safety on the hill.

No small detail left behind.

A contrast-color zipper tape at the wearer’s left chest pocket adds a bright touch to the clean style. The interior of the collar features a soft, brushed-tricot that feels great against the face (the same brushed tricot is in the pocket bags). The sleeve-cuffs feature internal wind cuffs and adjustable tabs with Velcro® closures so they can be adjusted to the wearer’s liking. To further guarantee a superior fit, the hem of the Catalyst is adjustable via Cohaesive® cord locks, accessible through the hand pockets.
