All new for 2014 is Faction’s apparel division. Among many stylish and technical ski jacket kits, we highlight this eccentric purple one, though it comes in multiple colorways. Rated at 20K/20K, both jacket and pants are 100-percent seam sealed and feature water resistant YKK zippers. The pants feature 60 g Thinsulate insulation in the seat and knees, as well as a reinforced bottom hem to battle dirty parking lots. You’ll also dig the adjustable waistband and mesh-lined vents at the pits and inner pant seam to keep you cool. Above all, the mechanical stretch fabric is smooth, lightweight and strong.
