686 1994 Liberty 2027 – Shell Jacket

Description

The 686 1994 Liberty is a throwback shell jacket that pulls directly from snowboarding's early park culture. Designed for riders who appreciate clean, functional outerwear that works just as well off the hill as on it, it's a no-frills technical piece built around a timeless silhouette with genuine all-mountain capability.

The shell construction pairs a 2-layer infiDRY® fabric with 10,000mm waterproofing and a PFAS-free DWR finish, keeping you dry without the environmental baggage of older coating chemistry. Critically taped Bemis® seams close off the remaining weak points. Ventilation comes from Air-Flo™ underarm vents, while an adjustable powder skirt, helmet-compatible hood, Velcro cuffs, and bottom hem cinch let you dial in the fit on the go. A 5-pocket layout — including an inner audio pocket, goggle stash, and key clip — covers everyday mountain needs, and the Pant Jacket Connect™ system keeps things sealed when it matters.

Who it's for

Riders who want a versatile, heritage-style shell they can wear from the lift to the street will feel right at home in the Liberty. The minimalist cut and recycled polyester construction make it a solid choice for park-focused days or cruising all-mountain in variable conditions. It's also backed by 686's lifetime warranty against defects, so it's a piece you can commit to long-term.
