Product Insights & Style Tips
The Cottonwoods LT Xpore 3L Jacket moves into this generation with a more athletic, articulated fit built around the lightweight, stretch Xpore shell underneath it. No intentionally added PFAS runs through that membrane, keeping the durability the Cottonwoods name has always delivered. This G2 update reworks the pocket layout, swaps in a half-drop hood, and drops the mesh lining from the underarm vents for real airflow at the resort and beyond it.
Xpore 3L shell moves from resort days to backcountry tours, and the gearhead tone in the field backs that up. Chest pockets clear the waist strap on a loaded pack, and an accessory pocket routes its pull cord to the outside for quick access. Underarm zips skip the mesh liner for real airflow, while a half-drop hood secures with a hook when it is stowed. An adjustable powder skirt and storm flap block drafts, and wrist gaiters with gusseted cuffs adjust over or under gloves. YKK AquaGuard zippers hold up at every seam.
That G2 update speaks to Backcountry's gear-forward ethos, pairing airflow, a streamlined silhouette, and adaptable layering that suits the chairlift-to-trail rhythm. Priced at $499, this Cottonwoods update sits at the ready for days that swing from mountain air to casual après.
