The new Spyder Men's Leader Jacket is stacked to the max with technical features designed to adapt to the best and worst of winter conditions. A perennially popular Spyder jacket, bold mechanical blocking and custom-embossed nylon taffeta lining, not to mention wicked waterproofing, keep this jacket far in front of the snow-sport crowd. Don't feel guilty; there's nothing wrong with always being the first one to get to the bottom (or the first in the lift line).
Spiders are crafty, even when they aren't trying to save pet pigs. It's only logical the Spyder engineers took soft and flexible stretch polyester fabric and turned it into a storm-stomping piece of waterproof, breathable protection. Xt.L 20K/20K laminate won't let a sideways snowstorm or brutal bootpack take you down. Dry is good when exposed to the elements, but warm and dry is better. Two grades of Thinsulate Insulation with Extra Warmth keep the Leader looking like it means business instead of just another puffed up jacket.
Interior stretch cuffs with thumb loops keep the sleeves in place and warm your wrists. Both the hood and powder skirt come off when you're leading the troops to town for apres-ski drinks, or when you're shoveling your seemingly endless driveway. The internal goggle pocket gives you eye-wear options if the day starts out snowy and finishes sunny. An included chamois goggle wipe gives you high visibility for your free-riding fun, and the sleeve pocket readily holds emergency (beer) cash.
The Spyder Leader Insulated Ski Jacket is one of the best-selling men's ski jackets around. This coat has aggressive styling and technical prowess that's super reliable. If you want to be able to ski in any conditions, the Leader Jacket's 20K waterproof fabric will keep you dry. Thinsulate Extra Warmth insulation provides even more warmth while maintaining that light and low-profile feel that Thinsulate is know for. Waterproof chest and hand pockets keep important gear dry, and internal pockets hold loads of gear. The Leader Jacket also has one of Spyder's coolest features. There's actually an anti-abrasion overlay on the fabric that protects against scuffs and scrapes. It keeps your jacket looking new even after a tight run in the trees.
