Lightweight uninsulated backcountry shell with 35K waterproofing, advanced venting, and reflective visibility.

Lightweight and tech-heavy, the FXR Men’s Vertical MTX Lite Jacket is built for relentless backcountry riding. Its nylon and spandex Omni-Lite Hybrid Stretch™ outer shell delivers four-way mobility, while 500D Oxford nylon reinforces high-wear areas for added protection against demanding terrain. The HydrX 35K™ waterproof, 25K breathable, and windproof laminate combines with fully seam-sealed construction and a PFAS-free DWR finish to shut out snow, moisture, and wind without weighing you down. 

Inside, the seam-sealed ACMT™ dual-layer lining system helps regulate climate and control condensation while integrating with the jacket’s extensive ventilation system. Snowproof and moisture-resistant Dry Vent™ openings at the chest, biceps, back, and side body release built-up heat during high-output riding. Heavy-duty waterproof YKK® zippers, an adjustable windskirt, secure cuffs, an adjustable collar and hem, and a removable hood help maintain coverage through changing mountain conditions. Reflective inserts improve low-light visibility, while a goggle wipe and key clip keep essential trail tools close at hand.
