Most of the US just got sideswiped by a massive cold front, so there’s no time like the present to update your cold-weather outerwear. Backcountry’s big sale on top-level brands is here to help ease you into the early-winter weather. Gear and apparel from Patagonia, Columbia, Arc’teryx, and Smartwool are all up to 30% off. These brands are at the pinnacle of outerwear prowess. 

The Patagonia Synchilla Lightweight Snap-T Fleece Pullover is down to $95 and is the perfect thing for anyone that loves to enjoy a brisk walk in the wilderness, without the possibility of frostbite. Made from partially-recycled materials, this double-faced fleece is ready for anything. It also features stretchy Spandex cuffs and hem to keep your heat locked in. 

Or go for the Smartwool Merino 250 Baselayer Pattern Crew, down to $83. This technical layering piece is made from Merino wool, which is naturally antimicrobial (meaning no smelly undershirts) and is incredibly warm but breathable. 

Whatever you choose from the sale, you’ll be getting a crazy good deal on gear you’ll want to wear all season. | Shop at Backcountry >
