Spyder: Boy's Rival Jacket

Keep your young skier comfortable throughout the season in this versatile and waterproof Rival Jacket from Spyder. While some high-end jackets merely vent, the breathable, weatherproof Rival offers zip-off sleeves with a handy storage pocket in back that holds the sleeves until the weather or seasons change. Spyder added armhole wind cuffs along the shoulder openings to reduce wind penetration, but unlike shell and microshell convertible jackets, the Boy's Rival offers consistent insulation throughout the torso (although it might be a little too warm on some spring skiing days). Spyder treated the rugged nylon dobby fabric with a special XT coating that penetrates the fabric and forms a honeycomb pore structure that lets vapor escape while keeping exterior water droplets outside the jacket. A Spylon water repellent finish helps keep the droplets from consolidating and saturating the pores. Unlike some ski hooded ski jackets, the Rival Jacket has a temporary rollaway hood that cleanly tucks into the elevated collar. This configuration works well for kids who ski with helmets and don't require a hood in all but the most extreme downpours. Other nice touches include a cool embroidered Spyder logo across the back and an internal powder skirt to keep spindrift out whenever--and wherever--the snow piles deep.
