Choosing functionally superior wear leads to comfortable riding and the road to step-up_Burton's high-performance wear + layering

For comfortable riding
Choose clothing that is functional and reliable

This season, in the middle of December, reports of heavy snowfall began to arrive from various places.For snowboarders, that means plenty of powder and a long season to enjoy, and many of you are probably in high spirits.More snow resorts are scheduled to open this weekend, and the season is finally starting in earnest.

It is a well-known fact that gear performance is very important for enjoying riding.Snowboarding is much more fun when you use gear with the controls and performance that suits you.To choose a board, bindings, and boots, I go to a test ride event and try them out.Thoroughly sticking to gear selection in this way will surely lead to improvement.

On the other hand, when it comes to clothing and layering, isn't there actually a lot of people who prioritize trendy styles, favorite colors and silhouettes?That's not a bad thing, but it's very important to use something with good functionality when you think about enjoying "comfortable riding".Some of you may have experienced that it's hard to get on the chairlift because of the cold even though the conditions are good, or that you can't stand the heat after one slip and go back to your car to change your clothes.

That's why the functionality of clothing and layering is important.However, many people think that the functional and reliable GORE-TEX shell is too expensive and unaffordable, and they don't know what to choose for layering.In order to enjoy riding to your heart's content and make the season more enjoyable than usual, how about selecting clothes and layering items this season by examining their functionality and reliability?

Because we pursue the highest level
Very high overall quality

I would like you to check out Burton's clothing and layering items.
Speaking of Burton, there is a high-performance model called [ak] at the top of the lineup, and the outer shell using GORE-TEX is reliable for snowboarders who like backcountry and powder, and people who work as guides. It is used habitually as an expensive item.Not only is it waterproof and water repellent to prevent moisture from entering the inside of the wear, but it also has a very solid adjustment function such as heat retention and moisture permeability to keep the inside comfortable.Of course, it should be easy to move around in, but also stylish, and it should not fall out of shape even when worn for a long time, and it should be able to withstand tough use.In addition, the usability of the pocket, the ease of putting on and taking off, and the usability of the hood in the case of a jacket are packed with ingenuity.Burton's wear has arrived at the current form and functionality due to the long experience of making wear with hard goods and a huge amount of feedback from riders.

In addition to the [ak] series, Burton has many high-performance models in its regular lineup.
The know-how of making the highest peak wear has been firmly incorporated into the regular lineup, and it is highly functional, and you can choose from various variations such as silhouettes and colors.Of course, we also have a lineup of high-performance outer shells that use GORE-TEX, and because they are priced more reasonably than the [ak] series, they are actually very popular in snowboard shops and have become recommended items. There is

If you want the highest level of reliability
I want to choose an outer shell using GORE-TEX

After all, the waterproof performance of GORE-TEX is absolutely reliable.
Since it is basically made as an outer shell, it is very lightweight and can be used in a wide range of weather conditions.
In addition, Burton uses a bluesign that is friendly to people and the environment.®︎As a product, it clears various strict standards such as safe materials and consideration for the environment in the manufacturing process.While climate warming and lack of snow due to environmental destruction are becoming a problem, for those of us who enjoy snowboarding, such a perspective is also an important factor in choosing.So I picked up a few from Burton's GORE-TEX lineup.

▶ ︎Men's CARBONATE GORE-TEX 3L JACKET
The strongest 3L jacket using GORE-TEX with a regular fit silhouette.All seams are completely waterproof with seam tape, and stretch material is placed on both sides of the back.I draw overwhelming easiness of movement.This is also located at the base of the hood, so that the hood does not become stiff even during intense riding, and it fits naturally with the movement of the head.This excellent stretch function maximizes the ease of movement during riding.Pocket access is also excellent.

How to make the most of the functions of outerwear
Depending on how you combine layers

Just because the outerwear is GORE-TEX, if you let your guard down, you can't keep a comfortable riding environment.Layering that stays wet even if you sweat does not make the most of the performance of the outerwear.
With a good base layer and mid layer in place, try it once and you'll feel the difference.The first thing to do is to wear a solid base layer.It is convenient to prepare a down jacket for the mid layer when aiming for powder in the coldest season. Burton's layered items come in a wide variety of styles and colors.At rest houses, people often wear layers, so I want to choose something that looks smart and stylish.In addition, if it is a comfortable layer, you can wear it on the way to and from the trip, and the range of activities will be expanded.
