Late Season Layering for the Western Hunter

Unpredictability, Elevation Changes and Long Hours Behind Glass Demand a New Age in Ridge Reaper Engineering

Born out of the western big game hunting tradition, the Under Armour Ridge Reaper collection is the best-built gear in the world, designed to defy Mother Nature. The latest gear employs intel from years of backcountry experience shared by UA athletes including Cameron Hanes and Remi Warren. This expertise allowed for an unmatched approach to late season layering with the Infil WINDSTOPPER, Alpine Ops, and GORE PRO gear.

 

In the late season, pressure and limited food sources drive big game further from access points and deep into the ridges and draws of the true backcountry. The RR Infil WINDSTOPPER Jacket and Pant are mobility-focused outerwear layers designed to cut through wind, weather and cover to get you there.

 

The GORE WINDSTOPPER softshell fabric offers total wind protection, maximum breathability and incredible stretch to keep you mobile even in the harshest conditions. Warmth and durability are guaranteed with a brushed microfleece liner and encased elastic bi-swing. The result? Unrestricted mobility, no excess fabric and complete coverage for the miles between you and a punched tag.

Calling in bulls and covering treacherous ground is the highlight of western hunting, but we know the real work gets done with long hours logged behind glass. While the WINDSTOPPER gear excels at comfort and coverage when on the move, the Alpine Ops Parka and Pant are the latest innovation for glassing and basecamp.

 

Top-to-bottom, 800-fill power goose down provides extreme warmth to outlast even the harshest mountain conditions. Built on top of the insulation is UA’s water-resistant Storm technology and a rugged nylon shell for reinforced seat and inner-leg panels.

 

No attention was spared for complete coverage. The Parka’s shaped adjustable hood provides maximum coverage and peripheral vision, while elastic and snap cuffs prevent heat loss.

 

Once the pursuit begins, full-length leg zips allow for easy on and off, while unused gear packs into integrated stuff sacks.

When the weather turns on you, this gear won’t. Built with the highest quality GORE-TEX fabric, The GORE Pro Shells offer three-layer construction that’s 100% waterproof while still remaining incredibly breathable.

 

Heavy articulation provides enhanced structure and mobility. Make no mistake, this elite outerwear is built with ironclad weatherproofing. UA RR GORE PRO Shell Jacket and Pant, our most technical designs, guarantee all-weather, no-quit reliability.
