Your ski touring shell spends most of its life in your pack, but when you need it, it has to work flawlessly. The LF Hardshell Jacket was built to deliver the ideal balance of weight, packability, durability, and protection for high-output ski touring. Lightweight enough to disappear in your pack, yet tough enough to handle rock, ice, and tree branches. Designed to balance breathability, a freeride-inspired fit, and purpose-built details for backcountry use. This is the shell we always wanted: one that performs like a top-tier alpine jacket but fits and looks the way we actually ski.

YKK AquaGuardĀ® VISLONĀ® Zipper

Water-repellent molded plastic zipper featuring a polyurethane-laminated tape for weather protection and laser-perforated collar guard for ventilation while breathing with hood on.

Dual Chest Pockets

The TourTech Shell features two chest pockets positioned perfectly between your sternum and pack waist belt for easy access. Each pocket features a lightweight, laser-perforated woven liner for added breathability. Both chest pockets feature internal beacon elastic sleeves and webbing loops to securely hold your beacon, phone, or other essentials. No lower pockets are included, as your Raide pack already provides storage on the hip belt.

Fully Featured Hood

The helmet-compatible hood is fully featured with a protective, laser-perforated collar for ventilation, a hood cinch to keep the weather out, and a brim for directing moisture away from your face.

Two-way pit zips

Dump heat while touring with two way pit zips to make venting easy from any position.

30k/30k Proprietary Material

Introducing TourShell-01 — a research fabric developed exclusively for Raide. Engineered from the ground up for high-output ski touring, it combines a super air-permeable, hydrophobic polypropylene membrane with UHMWPE ripstop reinforcement for unmatched breathability, waterproofing, and durability. PFAS-free and rated 30,000 mm / 30,000 g, TourShell-01 delivers the rare balance of protection, structure, and packability that defines the future of mountain outerwear.

No Powder Skirt

Most ski jackets come with a powder skirt, but when you’re wearing a backpack your hip belt is already doing that job. To make the most purpose-built backcountry jacket, we did not include a powder skirt, or even a place to zip one in, minimizing bulk while maximizing packability and function.

Hidden Pass Pocket

We built a pass pocket into the sleeve of the shell without compromising weight or packability by adding a zipper. Inside of the sleeve there is elastic material bonded against the shell to create an envelope style opening just large enough for your pass for those sidecountry days.

Taped Seams

PFAS-free and rated 30,000 mm / 30,000g with fully taped seams for high-level weather protection in the worst conditions.

Hem Cinch

Keep out snow and wind with the hem cinch, tightening the jacket to your waist and increasing protection from the elements.

Cape mode

Ideal for blocking wind during high-output moments, a snap and laser-perforations at the neck keeps the jacket up to protect your face while allowing you to breath easy with your hood on while unzipping the front for extra ventilation.

Two-pack modes

The LF Hardshell Shell is designed to pack two different ways, depending on how you use it. For the smallest carry, compress it into its own chest pocket and zip it shut—perfect for pre-packing the night before a tour. In the field, roll the jacket into the hood, loop the shock cord around the bundle, and hook it to the included webbing for a quick, easy compression system.
