686 GORE-TEX CORE SHELL JACKET 2026 BLACK

The Core is the most straightforward way to wear GORE-TEX on the mountain: a clean-lined, uninsulated jacket that genuinely keeps water and wind out without adding what you don't need. That's why it's a 686 team favourite.

2-layer GORE-TEX in recycled polyester with taped seams, an Air-Flo™ chest vent with waterproof zip, helmet-compatible hood, powder skirt and Lycra wrist gaiters. Six pockets, including a heated phone pocket and a pass pocket with key clip. With no insulation, you adapt it to any day with what you wear underneath.
