    Nikki Champion's review

    Still buzzing over my Heyburn kit. It seriously blew past every expectation. The fabric nails that sweet spot between breathable and functional (hello, no compromises). It held up through everything from 6,000’ vert days in BC to spinning hot laps at Alta, and never missed a beat. Plus, let’s be real… head-to-toe purple? Easily the cutest on the mountain. Built by the girls, for the girls, and it shows.
