Burton GORE-TEX [ak]® Insulated Swash 2027 – Women's Insulated Pants

The Burton GORE-TEX [ak]® Insulated Swash is built for women who don't slow down when temperatures drop. Designed as part of Burton's performance [ak] line, it bridges the gap between a shell pant and a full winter suit — ideal for aggressive riders who face cold, variable conditions and need protection that keeps up with their pace.

At its core, a GORE-TEX 2L shell made from recycled nylon delivers guaranteed windproof, waterproof, and breathable protection, with fully taped seams and YKK® water-resistant zippers throughout. 40g PrimaLoft® Silver insulation adds targeted warmth without bulk, while a regular fit and articulated patterning preserve full mobility. Crossflow Venting™ inner thigh vents with mesh lining let you regulate heat on the fly, and a water-resistant boot gaiter, anti-scuff cuffs, and contoured waistband with side elastic round out a thoughtfully engineered build. A beacon-friendly power mesh pocket sits inside each thigh pocket for quick avalanche safety access.

This pant is for the rider who finds shell pants alone too cold on deep winter days but doesn't want to sacrifice breathability or packability for a bulkier insulated option. The [ak] feature set — crossflow vents, beacon pocket, reinforced cuffs — speaks to riders who spend full days in serious terrain. Backed by Burton's Lifetime Warranty, it's a long-term investment for committed mountain riders.

• How does the insulation hold up in wet conditions? PrimaLoft® Silver is designed to retain warmth even when exposed to moisture, making it a reliable choice for wet snow and changing conditions.
• Can I layer under the Swash on extremely cold days? Yes — the regular fit leaves enough room for a midlayer base underneath without restricting movement or bunching at the knees.
