Volcom

Bolt Insulated Jacket - Women's

V-Science is a proprietary technology developed by Volcom that features a waterproof and breathable membrane in their jackets. This means that while you're snowboarding, the jacket will keep you dry from rain or snow on the outside, while allowing sweat and moisture from your body to escape. This helps maintain comfort during physical activities, ensuring you stay warm and dry throughout your ride.

DWR, or Durable Water Repellent, is a treatment applied to the fabric of the jacket that helps it repel water. While it doesn't make the jacket completely waterproof, it allows water to bead up and roll off the surface, providing an extra layer of protection against moisture. Plus, our DWR treatments are PFC-free, meaning they are environmentally friendly and safe for the planet.

The Bolt Insulated Jacket uses synthetic insulation, which is specifically designed to trap heat and keep you warm, even in wet conditions. This is crucial for snowboarding, as it ensures that you stay warm and comfortable, regardless of the weather. Synthetic insulation also dries quickly, so you won’t be left cold if you get wet.

Zip Tech is a unique feature that allows you to connect your jacket to compatible pants, creating a seamless barrier against snow and cold air. This connection helps prevent snow from entering your jacket and pants, which is especially beneficial during falls or when riding in deep snow, keeping you warmer and drier.

A powder skirt is an adjustable feature found in many snow jackets that helps keep snow from entering the jacket when you fall or ride in deep snow. It fits snugly around your waist and can be tightened or loosened for comfort. This creates a better seal against snow, ensuring you stay dry and warm during your snowboarding adventures.

Understanding features like V-Science, DWR treatment, insulation, Zip Tech, and powder skirts is essential for selecting a snow jacket that meets your needs. These technologies enhance your comfort, warmth, and protection against the elements, allowing you to focus on enjoying your time on the slopes without worrying about the weather. Investing in a jacket with these features can significantly improve your overall snowboarding experience.
