The Burton AK Cyclic GORE-TEX 2L Men's Jacket is a fully waterproof, uninsulated shell built for hard-charging backcountry and resort days. A top-tier waterproof, breathable membrane seals out storms while a relaxed cut leaves room to layer your own warmth. It is the do-anything shell for riders who chase deep snow in any conditions.

Why we like it:

The uninsulated GORE-TEX build is the appeal; you get elite storm protection and the freedom to dial your own warmth with layers underneath. Pit zips and a rider-focused feature set keep it dialed for hard days.

Features and Functions:

The Cyclic Jacket is built from a GORE-TEX 2-layer recycled nylon 70-denier plain weave rated 28000mm waterproof and 20000 breathable, with fully taped seams and a mapped mesh and taffeta lining. Pit-zip vents, YKK water-resistant zippers, and a helmet-compatible hood round out a storm-ready shell.

Fit and Sizing:

A relaxed fit moves well over a midlayer with room to layer. True to size, cut for freeride and backcountry riding.

Bottom Line:

For storm-day riding inbounds and out, the Cyclic Jacket is best at elite, uninsulated waterproof protection. A do-it-all shell for riders who run their own warmth.
