Cottonwoods Xpore 3L Jacket is built to outlast the season
We built the Cottonwoods Xpore 3L Jacket to survive an entire season of real abuse, not just look tough on a hanger. Its 3-layer Xpore membrane is fully seam sealed, solvent-free, and carries no intentionally added PFAS, keeping it waterproof and breathable through the resort and the backcountry without leaning on chemistry we'd have to explain away later. The durable 70D face fabric and recycled nylon backer take the scrapes and load-bearing wear a real season delivers and keep performing the next one.
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
"I dig into my chest pocket for my phone mid-lift line without touching a single buckle on my pack. The waist strap tunnels straight through behind the hand pockets, so the belt never blocks the pocket I actually need."

Inside The Cottonwoods
Jacket

3-Layer Construction
Bonded 70D fabric feels rugged and durable, built to last 100+ days on the mountain.

Drop Hood with Roll-Up Clip
Bilateral clips drop the hood away from the standalone collar, then a rear cinch holds it rolled up and out of the way.

Backpack Strap Tunnel
Integrated tunnel threads your pack's waist strap behind the hand pockets, keeping straps secure and pockets usable.

Mesh-Lined Vents
Angled openings vent heat while mesh lining keeps snow out.

Grid Tricot Collar
Grid tricot fabric channels moisture from your breath so the collar doesn't sit clammy against your neck.

Goggle Wipe & Lens Storage
Removable goggle wipe and dedicated lens sleeve keep your optics accessible and protected.

Low-Profile Powder Skirt
Stretch powder skirt provides protection when you need it, undetectable when you don't.

Front Snap Closure
A center snap secures the jacket on the way to and from the lifts, no zipping required.

Purpose-Built Pockets
Phone sleeve, key clip, and pass pocket keep essentials secure and within reach.
Bibs

Self-Adhering Bib Straps
Self-adhering straps offer maximum adjustability with minimal hardware, plus low-profile comfort for full days.

Drop Seat With Two-Way Zip
Two-way zip drop seat makes bathroom breaks quick without removing layers.

Revamped Kick Panels
Kevlar® kick panels feel less stiff without sacrificing edge protection, and snap-adjustable gussets fit any boot.

Mesh-Lined Thigh Vents
Vents release heat while mesh lining blocks snow, even on storm days.

Purpose-Built Pockets
Dedicated pockets hold your phone and keys, while bellowed thigh pockets stay accessible sitting or standing.

Articulated Seams
Knee and hip seams curve for a flexed ski stance, so the fabric moves with you, not against you.

Adjustable Waist
A back-waist strap adjusts your fit, and women's styles add an extra waist snap for more adjustability.

Built-In RECCO® Reflector
A sewn-in RECCO® reflector adds extra peace of mind.

Built By Gearheads
We live and breathe the outdoors, so every stitch of BGA gear is made with a mission in mind. Designed in Park City at the foot of Utah’s Wasatch mountains—and tested by our Gearhead® Experts who use it every day—BGA styles are built to perform wherever the snow lands, trail leads or adventure calls.
