Despite being loaded with technology and features to enhance your on-mountain experience, the coolest thing about the Columbia Sportswearr Men's Aerial Arson Parka is probably what's missing: a bunch of extra weight. Seriously, this jacket redefines ultralightweight" - it's even lighter than the hanger you'll store it on. And thanks to super low-profile Omni-Heat insulation and thermal reflective technology, it still delivers superior warmth. With a waterproof-breathable membrane, you'll be wrapped in fully seam-sealed protection to keep you dry and comfortable even in a surprise summit whiteout. The rip exterior fabric has a slight texture for a rich feeling. Security and goggle pockets and an attached, adjustable storm hood will keep you covered if you take Raptus up the mountain for a few turns, but the real beauty of this jacket is its versatility in the face of a world filled with outdoor adventure opportunities. Ideal for everything from rainy hikes to serious snowshoe escapades, it offers unbeatable protection in a comfortable, lightweight package with streamlined styling that's perfect for street or summit.
