Volcom Brighton Full Zip Jacket — Men’s | Black

Some snow jackets look the part. The Volcom Brighton Full Zip Jacket in Black plays it too. A technical shell built for all-day, every-mountain riding — whether you’re lapping powder, threading park features, or hiking to a line that doesn’t appear on the trail map.

Constructed from V-Science Stretch Oxford fabric made with REPREVE recycled fibres, it’s lightweight enough to move with you on technical terrain and tough enough to handle whatever the mountain throws at it. With mesh vents, a powder skirt, handwarmer pockets, and a whistle zipper pull, this jacket proves you can ride hard and look good doing it.

The Black colourway keeps it clean and versatile — no fuss, no noise, just a jacket that gets out of the way and lets the riding do the talking.

Is the Brighton a Shell or an Insulated Jacket?

The Brighton Full Zip is an uninsulated shell jacket — designed to be layered over a midlayer (fleece, down, or synthetic insulation) for warmth that you can adjust to the conditions. This makes it a highly versatile choice for variable mountain days where you need to regulate temperature across different activity levels.

How to Layer It

• Cold days / low output: Base layer + midweight fleece or down gilet + Brighton Full Zip
• Active days / touring: Moisture-wicking base layer + lightweight softshell + Brighton Full Zip for wind and waterproof protection
• Mild spring days: Single base layer + Brighton Full Zip over the top
