What makes this jacket suitable for skiing?

It is designed for skiing with features like waterproofing, moisture-wicking, 4-way stretch, warming padding, and secure zipped pockets.

What is the purpose of the thumb loops?

The thumb loops on the cuffs help to keep the sleeves in place and prevent snow from entering the jacket.

What kind of zippers are used?

Troubleshooting

Zipper is difficult to move

Ensure the zipper track is clean and free of debris. Gently pull the zipper while applying slight upward pressure. If needed, use a graphite pencil or wax to lubricate the teeth.

Jacket no longer feels waterproof

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating may have worn off. Consider re-applying a DWR treatment suitable for technical outerwear after washing.

Reduced warmth or insulation

Ensure all layers underneath are dry and not compressing the jacket's insulation. Check for any damage to the filling material.

Inner lining feels sticky or degraded

This can sometimes happen with synthetic linings over time, especially if exposed to high heat. Ensure proper care and avoid excessive heat during drying.
