I have ridden the 686 Hydra jacket for 3 seasons. 1 season on the east coast and 2 in Colorado. So I have used it in many different conditions and it performs really well in all of them! It comes with 2-Layer infiDRY® 20K Stretch Fabric + DWR water-resistant coating. On a warmer sunny day, you can rock just a... Read more
Ideal for
- A versatile outer later that works in lots of temps
- All the features needed in a good all condition jacket. Great pockets, dual zipper, powder skirt, big hood and Thermagraph insulation pads throughout.
- This is a very comfortable jacket with great mobility even with a wider chest frame
Not ideal for
- If the local climate is very wet and rainy look into some gor tex jacket options
- If a more tailored, fitted jacket is preferred this may not be the best choice

The 686 Hydra Thermagraph jacket is a fantastic all-around jacket that is suitable for practically anyone. With its 20K infiDRY weatherproofing, it is very waterproof and windproof while remaining breathable and comfortable. I wore this jacket in 50 mph winds and felt it underneath. It has targeted insulation to help keep the important areas warm. It is not the most... Read more
Ideal for
- Great Wind proofing and Waterproofing
- Cool style with face shield and off center zip
- Breathable and has pit zips for those warm days
Not ideal for
- The corner of the zip/face shield can hit the face when not zipped up all the way
- Not the warmest by itself, but great for layering

This might be my new favorite jacket! The Thermograph has just about everything you would want in a jacket! This jacket packs a 20k waterproof outer shell so it can handle some wet conditions! I have been a long time fan of Gore Tex but I was so pleased with how well 686s waterproofing has held up! The insulated body... Read more

Excellent snowboarding jacket
Originally posted at www.686.com on Jan 22, 2025This is my second 686 outdoor jacket. It's an excellent jacket for snowboarding. Overall very good build quality. I especially love the vented feature of the neck area.

Tremendous Help
5 /5
Ethan was responsive and very helpful in getting me started with some gear. Having some very limited knowledge in skiing, Ethan was able to provide some great suggestions on narrowing down equipment given my budget and preferred style. He helped me save a ton of time, rather than doing hours of research trying to guess on what would suit me best. With his knowledge I have confidence that I was able to make a smart purchase that I will not regret.

Best customer service ever!!

I was in the process of picking out some ski equipment and I got matched with Gary. He was amazing answered every question I had and gave me his opinion on if I was looking into something that was not going to be right for me. He was beyond knowledgeable and it felt like I could come to him with anything. Even when I took a few days to do some more research and make sure I wanted to buy the things that were in my cart he would check in often to make sure I had now other questions. Absolutely top tier easily the best customer service I have ever had when making a big purchase like this.

Hands down the BEST experience i have ever had buying outdoor gear! Edward was extremely knowledgable, listened to what i needed and provided great suggestions. Had some good laughs and witty banter and it was like going shopping with a best friend who was an expert to point me to all the best gear and deals. Honestly i've never met a better salesperson who was so focused on helping me get out and enjoy the slopes. 1000 out of 10.

I needed the product quickly and was told it was shipping from Colorado, where I live. However, it turned out to be coming from Obetz, Ohio. John was more focused on making a sale than understanding my needs—he didn’t ask for any of my specifications yet claimed this was the perfect board for me. He then followed up to ensure I placed the order. This experience left me disappointed, and I won’t be returning to Curated or recommending it to others. The way your representatives conduct business reflects on your company.
