686 Reserved Havoc Insulated Jacket - Men's
The 686 Reserved Havoc Insulated Jacket isn't into staying mellow and keeping the peace. 80g of polyfill synthetic insulation takes the edge of nasty early January days and lets you sport nothing else but a T-Shirt during mid-march park laps, so you can raise hell all winter, knowing that the Havoc has your back.
- Critical seams taped to eliminate waterproofing weak spots
- Expandable hood with stretch panels accommodates helmets of all sizes, even those of the big-headed
- Single-pull hood adjustment cord makes adjustments easy
- Laminated weather-guard hood for added protection
- Underarm vents allow you to dump heat quickly
- Articulated elbows for a natural feeling
- Retractable pass pulls for easy access
- 2-way adjustable cuff tabs for a custom fit
- Internal spandex hand gaiters seal out the snow
- Pant-to jacket connect tabs for a full suit of snow armor
- Internal media pocket keeps your phone and tunes safe
- Internal mesh storage pocket for your stash
- Internal security pocket makes sure you get back to the car with your keys
- Hidden credit card/ID stash pocket makes hanging around your criminal friends safer
Bottom Line:
One helluva rabble rouser.

Hey Nick, good question. The Ride Newport and 686 Havoc are two fairly different jackets that with their own strengths.
The Ride Newport (item# RDE0596) is a shell jacket with a high 15k waterproof rating. It lacks insulation. If you tend to run hot when you snowboard, or like layering, this is the jacket for you.
The 686 Havoc has a solid 10k waterproof rating, but the major difference is it has insulation. The 80 grams of insulation will keep you MUCH warmer than a shell will. If you run colder when you shred or want a toasty jacket, go with the Havoc.
I tend to run cold when I snowboard, and I prefer insulated jackets in winter conditions. Hope that helps you make your decision.
