The real hero is the fabric. Polartec Powershield is a truly exceptional fabric.
90% of the time that you are outside this Powershield is probably the most comfortable
and effective outerwear for the majority of mountain activities. Blocking 98% of
the wind, highly breathable, water repellant and extremely abrasion resistant the
Sabretooth has phenomenal potential. The advantages of a softshell are obvious, stretch
for active comfort, less noise than a hard shell, warmth without weight and weather
protective. Featuring the classic alpine features, adjustable hood, venting pockets
and active tailored fit, the Sabretooth is the outerwear that gets worn, not carried.
