Description

Pros:

Few ski companies are as committed to an environmental mission as Picture Organic.  Case in point: their new Harvest Jacket. This award-winning jacket follows the same recipe as typical high-performance shells: it has a 3-layer build, taped seams, burly zippers, and a freeride fit. The difference, in this case, comes down to the ingredients themselves.  

The Dryplay Biosource Membrane meets the highest waterproof ratings (20,000mm) that hardcore skiers require, but it’s like nothing else on the market. In fact, Dryplay is derived from castor oil, a renewable resource. What’s more, the Harvest Jacket is also crafted from a fabric blend that includes 58% recycled polyester.  

Of course, a sustainable storyline isn’t enough to meet the on-mountain needs of resort and backcountry skiers, but luckily Picture delivers on all fronts with the Harvest Jacket. The shell proved itself in-bounds and out to our test team, and testers dug the robust zippers and spacious pockets. The snow skirt, wrist gaiters, and adjustable hood solidified the stretchy yet waterproof shell as a top pick for deeper days.

Cons:

The fit is a tad on the Euro end of the spectrum, so those looking for a particularly roomy cut will want to size up.

Favorite Feature:

We dug the pit vents and knit section on the back—this combo offers excellent ventilation and lets the Harvest breathe on the uphills.

Tester Comment:

“When sustainable gear performs as good (or better) than its non-renewable competition, it’s a no-brainer: the snowsports community should rally around those products. I heartily recommend that skiers and riders consider the Harvest—not only is it a step in the right direction as far as ethical manufacturing, but it’s also a badass shell that can handle anything you can.”

Bottom Line:

Skiers and snowboarders who love winter—and want to keep enjoying winter for decades to come—should check out this eco-friendly, game-changing shell.
