ISPO Award Winner 2024: Outdoor Research's Foray and Aspire 3L Jackets

The Foray 3L Jacket for men and the Aspire 3L Jacket for women are designed to meet the unique needs of year-round outdoor enthusiasts. Whether you're braving rain-soaked trails or windy summits, these jackets deliver reliable protection with eco-friendly innovation. Featuring Outdoor Research’s proprietary AscentShell™ Dry technology, the Foray and Aspire 3L Jackets combine lightweight breathability and waterproofing with wind resistance and mechanical stretch for unrestricted movement and range of motion. Constructed entirely from 100% recycled nylon, these jackets provide sustainable, durable protection while reducing environmental impact. The first-year exclusive factory-applied PFAS-free Nikwax Direct.Dry DWR finish keeps you dry without the use of harmful chemicals. Outdoor Research's TorsoFlo™ venting design unzips nearly the entire length of the side of the jacket from the hem to the biceps to shed heat and access base layers, pockets, and hip belts without removing the jacket. Other features include a fully adjustable hood with bonded brim, YKK Aquaguard zippers, zippered chest and hand pockets, and an internal pocket key clip. 

“The new Foray/Aspire 3L collection represents years of dedication and innovation,” said Outdoor Research Brand Communication Manager Dan Mayers. “Collaborating with industry leaders like Nikwax and Climate Impact Partners, we focused on delivering what our customers need most: sustainable, reliable, high-performance gear that provides protection and comfort in the outdoors. Creating outerwear free from non-intentionally added PFAS that also stands as the industry's first third party certified carbon-neutral 3L rain shell required a collective effort. This collection embodies our commitment to sustainability and innovation, and we're incredibly proud of what we've accomplished.”

Tailored for outdoor lovers who take on their favorite activities regardless of the forecast, the Foray and Aspire 3L Jackets accommodate a wide range of needs with comprehensive sizing options, including plus sizes from 1x-4x. Whether you're hiking, camping, or just enjoying the outdoors, the breathable, lightweight, and windproof design ensures unmatched performance. Certified carbon neutral, these jackets reflect Outdoor Research's commitment to sustainability and innovation. The Foray/Aspire 3L Jacket is perfect for hiking in the rain, biking in challenging weather, or taking a wet weekend adventure. Engineered for reliable wet weather protection and performance, it is the most sustainable rain jacket Outdoor Research has ever created.
