The Mountain Warehouse Astro Waterproof Insulated Ski Jacket is designed for adult women seeking reliable warmth and protection during winter sports and outdoor activities. It offers a high level of thermal performance, tested to -30C, and ensures comfort through its breathable, waterproof construction. While it is highly capable in moderate snow and rain, users should note that the 5,000mm waterproof rating is best suited for moderate conditions rather than extreme, prolonged exposure to heavy downpours.

It is rated at 5,000mm, which makes it waterproof enough for moderate rain and snow, but it is not intended for extreme, prolonged heavy downpours.
Yes, the hood is fully detachable to suit your preference or specific weather conditions.
The jacket is thermally tested to maintain core warmth in environments as cold as -30C, assuming proper layering underneath.
Use a specialized technical cleaner for waterproof apparel. Avoid fabric softeners and high-heat drying.
The jacket features multiple secure pockets designed to hold essentials like a ski pass securely.
The DWR coating has likely worn off; wash the jacket with a technical cleaner and reapply a waterproofing spray.
Ensure you are using moisture-wicking base layers; cotton layers trap sweat against your skin, making the jacket feel wet.
Check for debris or fabric caught in the teeth and gently clean with a soft brush; do not force the zipper.
For the best performance, ensure the adjustable cuffs are cinched over your gloves to create an airtight seal. When washing, use a technical detergent specifically designed for waterproof outerwear to avoid damaging the specialized fabric coating. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can strip the jacket of its breathability and waterproof properties. To maintain the 5,000mm waterproof rating, consider reapplying a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray after every few washes or when you notice water no longer beads up on the outer surface.
