Swix Navado Hybrid Jacket - Women's Black, XS

"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""I wore the Navado Hybrid Jacket through a full season of skate skiing and it handled everything from bluebird cold snaps to heavy exertion days where I needed the jacket to breathe rather than just insulate. The articulated elbows and stretch panels at the back let me drive my poles without any restriction pulling across the shoulders, which is something I notice immediately with jackets that aren't built for actual Nordic movement.""Cross-country skiing and winter running don't leave much room for gear that can't keep up with your output. The Swix Navado Hybrid Jacket was designed around exactly that reality, combining targeted insulation, stretch construction, and ventilation into a single piece that moves with you through high-effort sessions rather than fighting you at every stride. Swix built the Navado around three distinct zones, each doing a specific job. The light quilted upper blocks wind and retains warmth where your core needs it most. The performance softshell waist panel adds stretch and mobility through your midsection, where rotation and reach put the most demand on a jacket. The bonded mesh panels at the back and arms create passive ventilation that dumps heat during hard efforts without leaving you exposed when the pace drops. Pre-curved elbows and 3D patterning handle the technical side, keeping sleeves in the right position through a full range of pole motion. The result is a jacket that earns its place on a skate ski trail, a snowshoe route, or a cold road run without compromise."
