Hardshell Jackets Engineered for the Mountains

A hardshell jacket is the outer armor of a technical outdoor kit — the piece that stands between the wearer and hard weather at altitude, in a storm, or on a ski line. Nothing less than full waterproof-breathable membrane construction, fully taped seams, articulated fit, and hard-wearing face fabrics will do. BlackForgeX manufactures hardshell jackets as an OEM, ODM, and private label partner for alpine, ski, mountaineering, and technical outdoor brands.
