The REI Co-op Men’s First Chair GTX jacket is designed for snowsports enthusiasts. Its tough 2-layer GORE-TEX ePE technology with fully taped seams offers premium windproof, waterproof, and breathable protection. The nonfluorinated durable water repellent (DWR) treatment helps moisture bead up on the surface. The water-resistant recycled polyester taffeta lining glides smoothly over layers, and the shell style is designed with room for an insulated jacket underneath.
Features include a helmet-friendly hood, pit zips for ventilation, and a high collar to tuck your chin when the snow is blowing. The 2-way front zipper closure is backed with a full-length inner windflap, and shaped cuffs with hook-and-loop adjustments help seal out the elements.
- Plenty of pockets, including a media pocket with cord port and an interior drop-in goggles pocket
- D-ring on right chest pocket to attach your lift ticket or clip on your gloves
- Dropped back hem for added coverage

I’ve been wearing the REI Co-op Men’s First Chair GTX jacket for a few weeks now, and it’s been a game-changer on the slopes. The GORE-TEX technology keeps me dry, and the pit zips are great for ventilation.
