Quiksilver High Altitude 20K Snow Jacket – Men’s

The Quiksilver High Altitude 20K Snow Jacket is a men’s 20K waterproof shell built for serious resort and freeride days, combining a fully taped 20K DryFlight®-level laminate, helmet-compatible hood, and underarm vents in a relaxed, boxy fit with dropped shoulders.

Storm-Ready 20K Shell for Big Mountain Days

• 20K waterproof protection: A 20,000 mm TPU-laminated shell shrugs off storm snow, wet chairlifts, and deep powder so you stay dry from first chair to last run.
• Breathable performance shell: The 20K-rated waterproof-breathable construction is designed for active riding, helping dump excess heat and moisture on long, demanding days.
• Fully taped seams: Critical for true storm use, fully taped seams back up the 20K fabric so melt and wind-driven snow don’t sneak in through the stitching.
• Uninsulated for layering freedom: No built-in insulation means you can fine-tune warmth with different midlayers, making this jacket work from mid-winter storms to spring missions.
• Recycled shell with C0 DWR: A 100% recycled polyester plain-weave shell (about 152 g/m²) with C0, PFAS-free DWR delivers rugged durability with a lighter environmental footprint.

Dialed Mountain Features

• Helmet-compatible hood: The hood is sized to fit over most snow helmets and adjusts quickly to keep your vision clear and your head protected in blowing snow.
• Underarm vents: Zip open the pits to dump heat fast on bootpacks, hike-to lines, or spring park laps without exposing your core to the wind.
• Removable snow gaiter: A removable powder skirt (snow gaiter) seals out blower pow and resort spray, and can be taken out when you don’t need it.
• Front-pocket hem adjusters: Hidden hem cinches inside the hand pockets let you tighten the bottom of the jacket without fumbling around in the snow.
• Lift-pass pocket on sleeve: A dedicated pass pocket on the left wrist keeps your RFID pass in scan range and out of the way.
• Printed lining: A lightweight printed lining adds personality inside while sliding smoothly over base and midlayers.

Fit, Feel & Style

• Relaxed, boxy fit: A roomy, boxy silhouette with dropped shoulders is built for freedom of movement and easy layering, while still looking sharp on and off the hill.
• All-mountain ready: Whether you’re chasing storm totals, lapping side hits, or logging long resort days, the High Altitude 20K is tuned for aggressive all-mountain riding.

Who It’s For

This jacket is ideal for riders who want a true technical shell rather than a bulky insulated coat. If you ride in variable conditions, like to layer differently for storm days and sunny days, and want 20K waterproof protection, fully taped seams, vents, and a removable snow gaiter all in one piece, the High Altitude 20K Snow Jacket is built for you.
