Burton [ak]® Swash Synthetic Insulated GORE-TEX 2L 2027 – Women's Insulated Jacket

Description

The Burton [ak]® Swash Synthetic Insulated GORE-TEX 2L is a full-commitment insulated jacket built for women who push into serious terrain on storm days. It bridges the gap between a packable shell and a heavy parka — enough warmth to handle cold approaches, enough breathability to survive hard-charging descents.

Key Features

A GORE-TEX 2L shell delivers windproof, waterproof protection with the brand's Guaranteed To Keep You Dry™ promise, while body-mapped PrimaLoft® Silver insulation (60g in the chest and kidney zones) concentrates warmth exactly where heat loss is greatest and opens up in high-output areas to prevent overheating. Crossflow Venting™ side zips give you instant temperature control on the skin track or a long cat-track traverse. The Rider Wrapped fit uses articulated patterning for unrestricted movement, and the StormForm Fulltime Contour™ Hood with Cohaesive™ cinch seals out wind without fighting your goggles. A full feature set rounds it out: YKK® water-resistant zippers, a zip-out stretch waist gaiter with jacket-to-pant interface, RECCO® reflector, zippered chest pockets with expandable bellows, a tethered goggle scraper, and a dedicated exterior phone pocket. Backed by Burton's Lifetime Warranty.

Who It's For

This jacket is for the woman who splits between resort and sidecountry and doesn't want to layer-swap mid-day. If your sessions involve long cold hikes followed by technical descents in variable conditions, the Swash Synthetic earns its place. It's the one-jacket quiver for demanding winter days.

FAQ

• Is this jacket compatible with Burton's EST® or channel binding systems? The Swash Synthetic is a jacket — binding compatibility doesn't apply. The ergonomic zip-out waist gaiter does interface with Burton pants for a weatherproof connection.
• How warm is 60g PrimaLoft® Silver insulation? 60g is a medium-weight insulation suited to active, cold-weather use. It keeps you warm on low-output approaches without overheating you on high-intensity descents, especially combined with Crossflow Venting™.
