Description

The 686 Mens 2001 Transfer Jacket 2026 marks a pivotal moment in both 686’s history and snowboarding’s evolution. In 2001, founder Michael Akira West—inspired by time spent exploring the vast mountains of Utah and British Columbia, set out to create what the factory would later call “the most complex jacket they’d ever produced.”

Technically advanced and design-driven, the Transfer Jacket embodied the athletic, tech-focused energy shaping snow and skate culture at the time. With muted colour blocking, lanyard-inspired trims, and a refined performance fit, it remains a true classic — a piece of 686 heritage that still holds its own today.
