Burton AK GORE-TEX 3L C-Knit Tuvak Jacket – Men’s

The Burton AK GORE-TEX 3L C-Knit Tuvak Jacket is a featherweight champion of the backcountry. This minimalist 3L GORE-TEX shell packs serious weather protection and breathability into an ultra-light package, perfect for high-intensity mountain missions.

3-Layer GORE-TEX with C-Knit Backer
–
Softer, lighter, and just as durable, waterproof and breathable as regular 3L GORE-TEX.

Waterproof & Breathable Membrane

GORE-TEX 3L
–
Burly and tough, this premium waterproof breathable material is for riders seeking the ultimate in comfort and durable waterproof/breathable protection.

Lining Material

GORE® C-KNIT™ Backer
–
Made from a dense, extremely thin circular knit to form a less bulky, patent-pending laminate. This thin fabric is soft and smooth, so you'll easily be able to slip your outer layers over your inner ones, without any snagging or stuffing.

Fit

Kinetic Garment Construction
–
The kinetic garment construction "wraps the body" and changes the grain of the fabric in a way that amplifies its inherent bias stretch, resulting in a fabric that moves as the body moves without restriction.

Regular Articulated Fit
–
A performance oriented, articulated fit with cutlines and patterning engineered to mimic the body’s natural flex while riding and hiking. The result is a higher degree of mobility that enhances the function‑first design and style of [ak].
