Eight years of development for perfection: the PowSlayer design
The PowSlayer Freeride Kit reflects over a decade of development work.

The latest models impress with an optimized fit that is specially tailored to freeride needs. The Nano-Air Ultralight Freeride Jacket is an outstanding example of Patagonia's innovative strength: it offers outstanding breathability, insulation and protection against light weather conditions. Every detail, from the choice of fabric to the fit, has been tested by professional athletes in different climates and snow scenarios to ensure maximum performance.

It offers innovative carrying systems for skis and snowboards as well as a well thought-out helmet holder that makes transportation easier on demanding tours. The modular aspects of the pack allow for customization, while the A-frame ski carry system and helmet positioning provide maximum flexibility for both skiers and snowboarders. The PowSlayer Pack combines functionality with comfort, making it an indispensable companion for any freeride adventure.
