Your Guide to Cold Weather Gear from Mountain Hardwear

Mountain Hardwear has all the gear to keep you warm and mobile during the coldest months.

As much as we live for summer, cold-weather pursuits are something we look forward to as the seasons change. Whether you like to spend the winter months skiing, snowboarding, camping, or tackling a challenging winter hike, durable and reliable gear can really make or break your experience. Let’s be honest, once your hands start to go numb you end up spending more time in the lodge drinking hot coco than out on the mountain — and hand and feet warmers can only get you so far. To get the most out of your winter hobbies, and most importantly make them last, check out the high-quality and durable gear from Mountain Hardwear.

Mountain Hardwear’s Finest

Whether you’re looking for a new winter jacket for high alpine pursuits, a bib pant to match, a more casual insulating layer to wear around town or a pack designed for your most rigorous adventures, Mountain Hardwear has you covered. Since the brand was founded in 1993, winter has been in its DNA. The brand supplies some of the world’s top athletes like climbers Kyra Condie and Garrett Madison — and if the gear holds up to what they can throw at it, it’s safe to say your comparatively mellow excursion won’t come close to testing its limits.
