Backcountry is live with a massive sale comprising 30% off select full-price items for members and an extra 20% off clearance until Nov. 18 from brands like Columbia, Vasque, and La Sportiva. The brand doesn't do massive sales like this often, so you better act fast ahead of ski and snowboard season.
We're most excited about the Rab Khroma Freeride GTX Glove that's currently on sale for $99, a whopping 45% off its original price of $180.

Rab has an impressive lineup of gear for skiing and snowboarding, and its freeride Khroma line is among the best. In fact, Rab Khroma Gloves earned the top spot in our roundup of the best ski and snowboard gloves—part of a wider Ski Awards package.
The gloves have flexible Pittards Armortan leather (a legendary brand in the space with over 200 years of experience producing technical leather) on the hand and fingers that transitions to a stretch nylon fabric from wrist to cuff. Our testers found it makes the gloves durable and protective in high-abrasion points, while maintaining light weight and flexibility everywhere else.
Men's Journal testers found the synthetic Primaloft Gold insulation packs a lot of warmth for its weight and works even when wet. Plus, the Gore-Tex Plus Warm membrane works beautifully to keep snow and slush out while simultaneously letting sweat escape.
One Rab reviewer wrote: "Great quality, and VERY thick."
Backed by the Rab Promise to repair or replace anything that fails outside of normal wear and tear, add these to your cart ASAP. They're the perfect upgrade ahead of ski season and also among the best gifts for outdoorsmen, gifts for adult sons, and gifts for dads who want nothing.
