Product Description

Our Story Starts with Ron Gregg

Outdoor Research founder Ron Gregg was a nuclear physicist who spent as much time as possible exploring the edges of the map. He referred to the outdoors as The Big Office, taking his work and research into the backcountry as often as possible.

In 1980, Ron watched his frostbitten partner get airlifted off a glacier on Denali. He’d spent months planning a new route in the purest style, skiing 100 miles from the road to the base of the climb. Halfway to the summit, their trip ended with the failure of a simple pair of gaiters. Stubborn to the end, Ron refused a seat on the helicopter and descended alone for two weeks, pondering what had happened.

Outdoor Research was born from Ron’s research-led approach to problem solving. He believed that the Research Method could be applied to solve the outdoor’s biggest challenges. Today, we carry that ethos forward.

Review Time with the OR Skytour AscentShell Bib and Jacket

Enjoying powder at Fairy Meadows wearing the Outdoor Research Skytour AscentShell bib and jacket.

When I moved to Seattle almost ten years ago, I didn’t know what hard shells or non-insulated jackets were. In college, I was channeling the image of “park-rat.” I came from the world of tall tees and impractical extra large insulated layers. I didn’t understand why people would want to wear nothing but a shell, especially after looking at the cost. Over the years and dozens of rainy PNW backcountry days, my attitude towards hard shells had evolved, and I became a strict hard shell lover.

Last year I got the chance to review the Outdoor Research Carbide kit ; this year, I focused on a backcountry-specific jacket and bib combo: the Skytour AscentShell kit. I have to say, after having used the kit this season, I may never go back to Gore-Tex while backcountry skiing.

The jacket and pant offer no insulation; they are constructed of shell material. The best part about the set-up is its breathability – I found I didn’t get nearly as sweaty compared to my usual Gore-Tex suit. The other part I love is the stretchy, soft, and quiet fabric. I am more used to this feel on softshell materials, but OR has also mastered their hard shell chops to achieve this.

So if this is not Gore-Tex , what is keeping me dry? Outdoor Research uses its proprietary waterproof-breathable membrane called AscentShell in both pieces. Think of this as OR’s version of Gore-Tex, but more tailored to the PNW crowd, allowing more breathability than some Gore-Tex fabrics for being active in wet weather.

I was skeptical about staying dry, so I made sure to put the technology to the test. I was impressed with how waterproof AscentShell is. It survived the Alpental wintery mix, the Hyak downpouring rain, and a few long rainy approaches. In its first year of life, it feels on par with my Gore-Tex . And like many Gore-Tex products, it is a three-layer fabric with fully taped seams.

I have only used the kit for one season, so far, the durability is up to the mark. So far, the pieces receive high marks for the typical wear and tear I look for: no holes from rubbing on the inside seam, zippers breaking, seams starting to lose waterproofness, and fabric separating from the waterproofing material.

Below I’ll cover my favorite features of the jacket and bib separately.

Dawn patrol with our dog Leif and the OR Skytour AscentShell kit.

OR Skytour AscentShell Jacket

The Skytour jacket allowed me to stay less sweaty on the uphill, and I definitely noticed this compared to our all-time PNW favorite Gore-Tex . With that said, I did sweat some in it; after all, it is a shell meant to keep me dry first and foremost. Yet, this is the most breathable waterproof hardshell I have experienced. It features large pit zips, but I am yet to use them.

The jacket offers lots of pockets: one on each side of the chest, an inner chest pocket, an inner mesh side pocket, and a sleeve pocket round out the storage options. All the pockets are a practical size which makes them versatile.

The jacket’s length is perfect for me; it fits longer than many of the other hard shells I have tried. I prefer for my bottom to be covered as it keeps me warmer and dryer.

Side profile of the jacket: length is longer in the torso and sleeves, but I personally like that kind fit for a bit more protection.

OR Skytour AscentShell Bib

The pants have two pockets on each side that are stitched on the outside (see photo), which I love since this offers more movement. When pant pockets are sewn on the inside, I find this constricting, making the pocket smaller.

I love the front bib pocket. This easy access pocket has replaced my beacon harness (I hate the “third boob” harness with a passion). The pocket is roomy and has an interior clip to secure the beacon. Plus, OR constructs the pocket entirely of mesh, so there is no compromise on the breathability.

Pant chest pocket: so grateful for this pocket vs using a beacon harness. Note the backside, or internal fabric is mesh for better breathability.

Difference between a pocket that is “built-into” the pant (left bib) vs. one that is sewn on the outside of the pant like that on the OR AscentShell. This is my favorite pant feature.

The leg opening was just the right size, not giving me any problems with removing the pant on/off, adjusting boot buckles, switching between ski/walk mode, etc. There is a snap at the bottom of the pant cuff to make the opening smaller, which I have not used.

My favorite feature is the full drop seat. I wish I had this last year while testing the Carbide bib . The drop seat is composed of two zippers on each side of the leg with a button right below your armpit: undo the button and slide both zippers down to let the back part of the pants fall down. I have found that with other bibs, these zippers are hard to manage as they get stuck, especially when zipping them back up after answering nature’s call – I haven’t run into this issue with the Skytour bib .

Possible Improvements

In the future, it would be rad if one of the pant side pockets also offered a clip as another option for beacon carry.

Call me silly, but it took me way too long to figure out these hood adjustments. In case you run into the same issue , let this photo be your guide to tighten and loosen the hood opening.

I found that the suspenders wouldn’t stay in place, and the metal strap adjustment pieces felt a bit bulky under my pack straps, but this could just be how they adjust on me.

I found the adjustment of the hood mechanism challenging to figure out – specifically to make the hood smaller to stay on my head when not wearing a helmet. I failed to do this while touring, but after experimenting with it at home, I could figure it out; simple markings on the hood or arrows pointing toward the hood adjustments would have helped.

OR has made admirable efforts to develop plus sizes in their clothing lines; it would be cool if OR made bigger sizes (beyond xl) in these.

Fit and Cost

I found the fit to be similar to the Carbide OR kit. I chose a size large for both the jacket and bib . The pant is definitely baggy on me, but as I have mentioned before, I like the looser fit since it allows for more layering and movement.

I went back and forth between sizing down for the jacket and going with a medium instead of the large, but settled on the baggier fit. I like the option of being able to put a big puffy under my shell and with a smaller size that ends up not being comfortable.

Compared to full Gore-Tex , the Skytour kit is a lot more affordable. The cost for the bib is $349.00, the jacket also retails for $349.00. Both items can be found on sale. OR also offers the Skytour AscentShell jacket and bib in a men’s version.

Is the AscentShell fabric as waterproof as a brand new Gore-Tex jacket – maybe not, but I am here to say that it is at least 90% of that. Given all the other features I have highlighted in this review, I am retiring my Gore-Tex bibs and jacket except for resort days. I recently gifted my mom this same ski outfit for her birthday. She loves it!

Follow on facebook:, mosko moto launches all-new ‘over-the-boot’ woodsman pant, mosko answers the call and delivers new otb version of its popular enduro pant..

Mosko Moto’s adventure-specific Woodsman Enduro Pant, launched last summer, was previously only available in an in-the-boot (ITB) version. Now there’s a brand new over-the-boot (OTB) alternative for those of us who prefer a more casual boot-cut look and improved weather protection. “You asked, we listened,” says Mosko about its latest offering. 

The Woodsman are a rugged soft-shell dual sport pant made specifically to accommodate the increased range of motion required during off-road riding, as well as the varied climates encountered during the most adventurous journeys. The hybrid design places waterproof and breathable Schoeller C-change material on the knees and seat for comfort and protection as a rider encounters water crossings or wet brush, while the upper portion of the pants is cut from more breathable C6 DWR (durable water repellent) Coated Nylon Oxford, which is a light, flexible, urethane coated canvas material that stretches to accommodate maximum mobility when you’re dicing through difficult terrain.

Both the OTB and ITB Woodsman, the latter of which, returns this year with a “refined fit” that includes adjustments in waist, thigh and knee areas, offer the same thoughtfully designed array of pockets, four on the front, including two hand pockets and two deep mid-thigh zippered cargo pockets, complete with internal sleeves ideal for smartphone stowage. Four generous and strategically placed mesh lined vents can be opened for cooling during active riding or in hot climes. All seams in critical areas of the pants are reinforced. 

Mosko uses waterproof materials strategically throughout the Woodsman for protection against light rain, wet brush or stream crossings, and the over-the-boot design helps keep moisture from seeping in through the tops of your boots. The company does however recommend adding a waterproof overpant, like their Rak or ultralight Deluge shell pants for those occasional times when it’s really coming down hard. And when you think about it, this method makes good sense, since it allows your everyday pants to be lighter and more breathable, not to mention nixing the hassle of a heavy, waterlogged fully-lined pants that can take forever to dry out. “We call it our 90% pant,” says Mosko of the Woodsman, “because 90% of the time, they are exactly what you need.”

Since the Woodsman are inspired by classic dual sport pants, they are a single layer and articulated to fit comfortably over MX boots and an armored undergarment or standalone knee pads. The new bootcut style features a zipper closure and Velcro adjustments so you can snug the bottoms around your boots. The Woodsman waist is also Velcro adjustable, with sizes ranging from 30-40 Regular and 32-36 Tall. Available colors for the new over-the-boot style will be Obsidian (charcoal and black), Tamarack (muted green) and Canyon II (think a light Carhartt brown). The updated Woodsman ITB pants also come in new colors — Obsidian, Tamarack and Canyon II. Both the Woodsman ITB and OTB styles go for $299.

Other New Gear

And, as ever, Mosko has the perfect jackets, base and mid-layers to compliment your new pants. Highlights of their latest releases include a new ultralight base layer, the Graph, which features a dropped hem, additional torso length, and longer short sleeves to stabilize armor straps and reduce chaff. It also incorporates graphene, an advanced material that encourages thermoregulation as body temperature changes. The Jackaloft insulated mid-layer jacket is returning with refined fit and new colors for a new season, and will be joined by a Strata Merino Quarter Zip Thermal Top, Zip-Off Thermal Bottom and Neck Gaiter, a Workhorse Jersey and Ectotherm Insulated 12v Heated Jacket , these latter items we’re told may be delayed due to global shipping delays. For its third run, Mosko’s flagship Basilisk jacket (available this fall in Copper) will also return with fitment improvements. 

OTB Woodsman Pant Features

• Hybrid material construction.
• Waterproof materials at knees and seat.
• Water repellent, breathable and stretchy upper pant.
• Four mesh lined vents Two Hand Pockets, 2 Cargo Pockets.
• Velcro-adjustable pants legs and waist.
• Articulated fit (cut to go over armor & MX boots).

• Available in sizes 30-40.

[…] post Mosko Moto Launches All-New ‘Over-The-Boot’ Woodsman Pant appeared first on ADV […]

At 298cm it is a shame they make them only to a size 40 waist. I take between 40 and 42 with a 36 in leg so looks like us larger riders are out of luck

Cool looking pants. Too bad they don’t have integrated knee/hip armor capability for us ADV/hot climate touring riders.

Exactly what I was thinking. These need the inserts for armor and they’d be perfect.

Are Woodsman pants resistant to asphalt abrasion or can they only be worn off road?

The body of the Woodsman Pants are made with Schoeller fabric, which scores very similar in abrasion tests to 500D Cordura — a material widely known for its durability an abrasion resistance. That said, The Woodsman pants are considered to be more of an off-road garment. For more protection on asphalt, check out Mosko’s Basilisk Pant that features SuperFabric panels with 600D Polyester and ceramic plating.

If only they zip off the lower legs and turn in shorts
