Volcom Unisex Hardshell Waterproof Mountaineering Jacket - Winter Performance Outerwear

Embrace the elements with the Volcom Hardshell Mountaineering Jacket, a premium piece of outerwear designed for those who live by the "True To This" philosophy. Engineered for the modern adventurer, this winter-ready jacket combines Volcom’s iconic board-culture aesthetic with high-performance technical specifications. Whether you are navigating alpine trails or facing a harsh urban winter, this hardshell provides the rugged durability and weather protection required for high-altitude environments and extreme conditions.

Key Benefits

Superior Waterproof Protection:** Featuring a 10,000mm waterproof rating, this jacket is built to withstand moderate to heavy snowfall and rain. The hardshell construction acts as a definitive barrier against moisture, ensuring you stay dry during extended outdoor excursions.

High-Level Breathability:** With a 6,000g/m² breathability index, the fabric allows internal moisture and vapor to escape. This high-level moisture permeability prevents the "clammy" feeling often associated with waterproof gear, keeping you comfortable during high-intensity climbs or hikes.

Teflon™ Fabric Protector:** The outer layer is treated with genuine Teflon technology. This advanced coating not only enhances water repellency by causing liquid to bead off the surface but also provides a shield against oil-based stains and dirt, extending the life and look of your garment.

Windproof Hardshell Engineering:** Designed specifically as a "hard shell," this jacket provides an impenetrable shield against biting winter winds, maintaining your core temperature in volatile mountain climates.

Unisex Technical Fit:** The A1342422 model features a versatile cut suitable for both men and women, offering enough room for essential winter layering without sacrificing a streamlined, athletic silhouette.

How to Use

To maximize the performance of this hardshell, utilize a technical layering system. This jacket serves as your outermost "shield" layer. For extreme cold, pair it with a moisture-wicking base layer and an insulating mid-layer (such as a fleece or down sweater). Ensure all zippers are fully sealed and adjust the hood and cuffs to create a weather-tight seal against wind and spindrift.

Care & Safety

To preserve the integrity of the waterproof membrane and the Teflon coating, avoid washing with standard household detergents that contain fabric softeners or bleach. Use a specialized technical wash designed for synthetic outdoor gear. Tumble dry on low heat for a short cycle to reactivate the water-repellent coating. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent UV degradation of the technical fibers.

Notes

This garment is built to the brand's rigorous standards of being "True To This" in every environment.
