    The jacket for any adventure

    Whether it's a post-work tour, Montana backcountry, or a long day in the Alps, this is the best jacket for the quest! The breathability of this jacket has been brilliant in the warmer temps and is still perfect when the weather decides to move in. It is a no-brainer go-to for touring in any conditions! The only reason why I cannot give this jacket a full 5-star review is I'm already noticing the material is starting to wear through on the cuffs after ~20 days' worth of use. This could be due to rappelling and the rope rubbing, but still am slightly disappointed.

    Exactly what I was hoping!

    The Cham jacket I received looked too light to be effective in even modestly cool weather but when paired it with a thin layer of insulation it’s perfect. Love the hood styling and dimensions - I never had to pull my gator over my nose even when skiing in higher winds and snow.

    Excellent Touring Shell

    I am 5'9" 165 lbs. and the medium fit perfectly. Slim fit with full range of motion. The shell is very breathable and packable.

    CHAM WOW

    This is the product that made me a firm believer in owning a touring kit. The ease of movement… the breathability, the narrower fit… all of it adds up to an awesome product.
