The Story

The iconic men's thorn-resistant ToughShell goes full-on PRO in its first redesign since the 2016 launch of what quickly became an upland mainstay. Now even more briar- and thorn-resistant thanks to promising new developments in heavy-duty fabric technology, with fully taped seams for an uncompromising level of wind- and waterproof breathability required by hunters who frequently find themselves following their dogs into the thickest, nastiest conditions. A slick, yet generous new design allows for the wearing of your upland vest either over or under the garment. The shell pocketing is equally generous and features magnetic closures to keep gear under control and in your possession, with a second set of zippered hand pockets above. An internal storage pocket securely stows the smartphone and truck keys. Zips placed strategically in the underarm zones allow for instant heat let-off when the going gets toughest, with a three-way adjustable hood to keep your head in the game should the skies darken and dump. On the terminal end of the arm, a soft, water-resistant neoprene cuff prevents rain and hanging moisture from wicking up your arm with an adjustable cuff, as well as an adjustable hem at the hip. Pairs perfectly with the PRO ToughShell Pant for a complete upland armoring system tailor-made for when conditions and cover get truly medieval. Weighs just 29 oz. Active Fit.

100% nylon. Imported.

Men’s sizes M(38-40), L(42-44), XL(46-48), XXL(50-52).

Notes from our Product Development Team

“We improved ToughShell by listening to the loyal.

Given the original ToughShell was so beloved, we didn’t fully stray from the concept, instead we gave it a remodel rather than a completely new design. We worked to streamline without sacrificing capacity. The fact the new material’s weave is nearly the same as the fabric used in boat sails only adds to the legend. It’s super strong and built to withstand anything—a lot like the hunters who wear it.”

—Natalie Cullum, Product Designer

Stay Dry Out There

Upland hunting is synonymous with unpredictable weather. So, we added an additional coating to the membrane to improve the waterproof qualities. It easily passed the “Killer Wash” test, the industry’s toughest testing method, resulting in a 20K waterproof rating.

Built to Bust Through Briars

A tight weave and waterproof construction pair up to achieve a high puncture value, creating a rugged barrier for angry thorns and stubborn shrubbery. The facing also utilizes the same weave that sailboat sails are constructed with. Plus, its slickness allows clingy burs to slide right off.

Comfort in the Heat

Hiking goes hand-in-hand with upland hunting and with it comes perspiration. With a 10K breathability rating, in addition to underarm zippers, excess heat can be removed, so you can stay comfortable.

Vest Versatility

A slick design allows you to wear your upland vest over or under the garment, giving you options in changeable weather conditions.
