With its 'soft' hardshell Proflex™ construction, the Khroma Kinetic Jacket is our most flexible and breathable waterproof ski jacket. When you need one system to do it all, from day touring to technical ski mountaineering, this is it.
Whether you want to skin up, ski down, bootpack or belay, the Khroma Kinetic Jacket has the flexibility you need. Its new 20D Proflex™ fabric comprises three layers - a wicking polyester inner, an expanded PTFE core and a woven polyamide/elastane outer with a DWR coating - which delivers outstanding high-energy moisture management, as well as extreme waterproofing of 20,000mm HH. The high-stretch properties of the elastane-infused construction also free you up to climb hard and move fast with excellent freedom of movement. In addition to fully taped seams, the Khroma Kinetic Jacket features a ski helmet-compatible hood with two-way adjustment, as well as adjustable cuffs and hem for a tailored fit.
Where ascent meets ski, the Khroma Kinetic Jacket comes into its own. With 20D Proflex™ fabric, it is a true ski mountaineering shell for fresh backcountry powder and tough, technical ascents.
Proflex™ Fabric
Feels like a softshell, protects like a hardshell. Proflex™ is our own waterproof membrane offering outstanding comfort at high intensities and in wild weather. Developed to offer stretch and exceptional breathability, the Proflex™ PU membrane has natural elasticity. It works in harmony with recycled knitted or woven fabrics to maintain this stretch and achieve a lightweight, soft, and flexible 3-layer waterproof fabric. The inner fabrics of Proflex™ laminates have excellent wicking properties. They work with the hydrophilic membrane to accelerate the process of moisture movement away from the body and out through the system. A DWR treatment on the face fabric keeps the membrane functioning at its best.
