FAQs
What type of conditions is this jacket best suited for?
This jacket is best suited for moderate winter conditions, such as skiing or snowboarding on groomed slopes in temperatures around or above freezing. It provides warmth and water resistance against snow and light rain.
How do I adjust the hood?
The hood can typically be adjusted using drawcords located at the front or back, allowing you to cinch it closer to your head for a snugger fit and better protection from wind and snow.
Is the snow skirt removable?
Yes, the snow skirt is detachable. This allows you to remove it for casual wear or when it's not needed, offering greater versatility.
Can I wear this jacket in very cold temperatures?
While the jacket provides good insulation, for very cold temperatures (well below freezing), it is recommended to layer with a warm base layer and mid-layer for optimal warmth.
What material is the jacket made of?
The jacket features a water-resistant polyester outer with softshell stretchy side panels and soft padding for warmth and comfort.
How do I clean the jacket to maintain its performance?
Machine wash on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent, avoiding fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low heat. For best results, use technical washes and re-proofing treatments.
Does this jacket have a pocket for a ski pass?
Yes, the jacket includes multiple pockets, with a specific, convenient pocket designed for your ski lift pass.
Troubleshooting
Water-resistance seems reduced
Wash the jacket using a technical cleaner and consider applying a re-proofing spray designed for waterproof fabrics. Ensure the DWR finish is reactivated by tumble drying on a low heat.
Zipper is difficult to move
Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. If it's stuck on fabric, carefully free the material. You can apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or wax to the zipper teeth to help it glide smoothly.
Detachable snow skirt is lost
The snow skirt is designed to be removable. If lost, the jacket will still function as outerwear, but without the added protection against snow ingress. Replacements are typically not available separately; consider purchasing a new jacket if this feature is essential.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This ski jacket requires no complex setup; it is ready to wear out of the package. Ensure you select the correct size for optimal comfort and performance. The jacket is designed for winter sports and is compatible with standard ski and snowboard gear. For care, it is recommended to machine wash on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can impede the water-repellent properties of the fabric. Tumble dry on a low heat setting to reactivate the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish. For best results and to maintain maximum water resistance, consider using a technical wash and re-proofing spray specifically designed for outdoor apparel. Always check the care label inside the garment for specific instructions.
