Burton Jet Set 2018-2019 Women’s Snowboard Jacket Review

High flying

You’ll probably have already gathered that the Burton Jet Set women’s snowboard jacket isn’t the most technical model out there. However, not everyone needs to drop a stack of cash on three-layer Gore-Tex. This has everything you need for day-to-day riding at a very attractive price, so it’s no wonder that it’s Burton’s biggest-selling women’s jacket to date.

The Burton Jet Set women’s snowboard jacket is slim fitting, and cut to the hip. While the specs may not exactly be eyebrow-raising, they’re good enough for the vast majority of riders – especially when you consider the added benefits of Burton’s proprietary ‘Living Lining’ system.

“‘Smart’ fibres that expand and contract with changes in temperature make the Jet Set techier than similarly spec’d jackets”

You can read about it in more detail here, but in a nutshell the application of ‘smart’ fibres that expand and contract with changes in temperature make the Jet Set techier than similarly spec’d jackets. You get a warmer jacket on cold days, and a more breathable one when it’s hot, and whatever the conditions the ‘DryRide’ outer layer protects against wind, snow, rain and the rest.

An internal goggle pocket is perfect for stashing your pair between sessions, and there’s another easy-access one for your phone. On top of that is a large mesh sleeve – the useful (though dubiously named) ‘Dump Pocket…’

“As well as using recycled material in the insulation, this jacket is Bluesign-approved”

Burton continues to build on its sustainability cred, and in that respect there’s plenty to admire about the Burton Jet Set. As well as using recycled material in the insulation, this jacket is Bluesign-approved. Only products that meet certain standards in everything from environmental impact to working conditions make the grade, and it’s definitely a step in the right direction.

While the Burton Jet Set women’s snowboard jacket is a hugely popular choice, the fact that there are no fewer than thirteen colourways to choose from means you’re unlikely match up with any of your fellow riders.
