Beyond Medals Retro Anorak 2027 – Shell Jacket

The Beyond Medals Retro Anorak is a loose-fit, 2-layer anorak built for riders who want a throwback aesthetic without sacrificing on-mountain performance. Designed for snowboarding in variable or heavy snowfall conditions, it suits freestylers and all-mountain riders alike who value style as much as function.

The shell is constructed from 100% recycled polyester with a PFC-free DWR coating and 15,000 mm waterproofing, keeping you dry through serious storm days. Fully taped seams and a fixed snow gaiter with pant attachment seal out the elements, while light padding adds just enough warmth without bulk. Underarm mesh venting, a two-way hood adjustment, stretchy thumbhole cuffs, and a hem adjustment strap round out a thoughtfully functional package — all finished with reflective details for low-light visibility.

Who it's for

This jacket is built for the rider who spends full days on the hill and wants a jacket that moves with them. The loose anorak fit gives freedom for park laps or powder runs, and the easy-access lift pass pocket and large front pouch keep the essentials within reach. If you ride hard and like your outerwear to look the part, this is the one.

FAQ

• Is this jacket warm enough for cold Quebec winters? The light insulation is designed for active riding rather than standing still in extreme cold — layering underneath is recommended on the coldest days.
• How do you put it on — does it have a full front zip? No, it uses a side-entry zipper for an anorak-style pull-over design, which also helps minimize cold spots at the chest.
