Overview

Built-In Technology

Primeflex By TORAY
Fabrics that get their stretch from as much as 10% elastane, spandex, and Lycra® materials are heavy, slow to dry, and don’t last. Primeflex fabrics solve the problem of restrictive clothing by utilizing a patented spiral yarn that allows the fabric to stretch and recover without using water-absorbing spandex. Primeflex fabrics are quick dry and offer durability, comfort, and stretch without the weight.

K-DWR® (KUIU DURABLE WATER REPELLENT))
Once a fabric is soaked, insulation and breathability are compromised. K-DWR treatments bead and resist water, keeping it from penetrating the outer layer. This increased breathability and performance allow waterproof membranes to evaporate your sweat while blocking out moisture. K-DWR also enhances dry-time and protects from light rain or dew-soaked vegetation on non-waterproof products.

Built as a tough, all-purpose outer layer jacket for use in cool to cold conditions. The robust DWR coated Primeflex softshell resists wind and light rain or snow, yet offers more breathability than fully waterproof hard shells for better core temperature management. While slightly heavier than their hard shell counterparts, soft shells are quieter, more durable, and remain comfortable in a wider range of conditions than true raingear. The Guide DCS Jacket is cut to fit athletically as an outer-layer, allowing just enough room underneath for base and insulation pieces, while a rain jacket in the same size will also fit over the top when needed. As a bonus, the Guide DCS Jacket has gained popularity as an everyday casual wear item and is offered in multiple solid colors that blend in around town as well as on the mountain.

FEATURES
  • 274 g/m2 Toray Primeflex Softshell bonded to a Micro-Fleece backer
  • Drop back hem
  • 2-way adjustable storm hood
  • No-lift gusseted underarms
  • Anatomical shaping for fit and comfort
  • Articulated elbows for increased mobility
  • Zippered pit zips
  • Chest pockets – 2
  • Hand pockets – 2
  • Shoulder pocket – 1
  • Inside Pocket – 1
