Born for the backcountry, the Black Diamond Recon Stretch Ski Shell Jacket comes with four-way stretch construction that won’t hamper your moves when you’re trying to complete that sketchy uphill kickturn on a 40 face. BD loads up the imported stretch fabric with a BD.Dry membrane for optimal weather protection, and gives you the features you need to boot. Uphill, downhill, lift or skintrack, the Recon is one heckuva jacket.
