Burton [ak] Hover Gore-Tex C-Knit 3L Stretch Snowboarding Jacket - 2026

GORE-TEX Winter Snow Jacket. A lightweight, technical 3L shell featuring the soft, stretch performance of GORE-TEX C-Knit.

Designed for both in-bounds and backcountry use, the men’s Burton [ak] Hover GORE-TEX C-Knit 3L Stretch Jacket is one of the lightest and most packable shells in the [ak] collection. The GORE-TEX C-Knit construction provides a smooth, flexible feel that allows natural movement, while the streamlined design includes essential vents, pockets, and adjustability for touring or resort riding—without added bulk. The ultralight build packs easily into a backpack and offers stormproof protection and breathability for comfortable, reliable performance in any conditions.

• Lightweight and Stormproof

  GUARANTEED TO KEEP YOU DRY™ GORE-TEX 3L is lighter weight than 2L GORE-TEX material as well as being waterproof, windproof, breathable, and durable enough to keep you on the move in all weather, period.

• Soft, Supple, Lightweight

  Three-layer GORE-TEX with C-Knit Backer is softer, lighter, and just as durable, waterproof and breathable as regular GORE-TEX 3L.

• Powder Day Ready

  An overall minimalist design keeps weight down but still offers key features like big pockets to keep your skins warm between laps, pit zips for venting on the skin track, a removable waist gaiter with jacket-to-pant interface, power mesh wrist gaiters, water-resistant zippers, and an adjustable hood for full storm riding coverage.

• Practical Pockets

  Interior mesh dump pockets, a bicep pass pocket, a zippered chest pocket, zippered hand-warmer pockets, and a zippered internal chest pocket offer secure storage and easy access to the usual stuff.
