Simply said, this kit, including the Columbia Peak Pursuit Bib, is for resort skiers who want a warm jacket-pant combo with minimal insulation and a slew of features. Waterproof and breathable Omni-Tech fabric is the baseline here, offering all day weatherproofing and enough air permeability to let the heat out when layering. Up top, the finer details reveal a jacket that can handle storm riding with ease. The hood is helmet compatible and an easy cinch adjusts its size; a high, soft-brushed collar is comfortable against the chin and effectively protects against wind; and a “drop tail” design, with a longer rear hem, helps protect your backside. Dedicated goggle and lift pass pockets also ensure everything has a place when you’re cruising around the ski area. The Columbia Peak Pursuit Bib sits high above the waist with s stretchy mesh gusset and suspenders that ensure a comfortable, weatherproofed fit. When nature calls, a vertical side zipper makes it easy to “take five.”
