Is the Burton Swash warm enough for winter?

It is a lightly insulated shell, so it suits winter only with a midlayer underneath. In spring and fall it works on its own.

Is it really waterproof?

Yes. It uses 2-layer Gore-Tex with sealed seams, so it sheds rain and wet snow.

What is the fit like?

It has a relaxed fit with room for layers. If you want a trim cut, consider sizing down.

Yes, it has pit-zip vents for dumping heat on the lift or on a climb.

How should I care for it?

It is machine washable. Follow the care label and avoid fabric softener so the Gore-Tex keeps beading water.

Is $519.95 a good price?

Only one store lists it new at $519.95 as of November 7, 2026, so there is no cheaper new listing to compare against. Watch for end-of-season markdowns.

The Burton Swash is a men's ski and snowboard shell built from 2-layer Gore-Tex, with sealed seams, pit-zip vents and a relaxed fit.
