Frequently asked questions
Should I get an insulated ski jacket or a shell?
An insulated jacket has warmth built in, so it's the simple choice if you ski mostly on cold days or tend to run cold. A shell is just the waterproof outer layer: you add a base layer and a fleece or puffy underneath, which makes it more versatile across temperatures and better for spring skiing and active days. If you'll only own one jacket and ski mostly in the Midwest, insulated is the easier pick.
What do waterproof ratings like 10K and 20K mean?
The number is how much water pressure the fabric resists, in millimeters. Around 10,000 mm (10K) handles most resort days, while 20,000 mm (20K) and up is better for wet snow, rain and long storm days. Breathability is rated separately; a higher number means sweat escapes faster, which matters if you hike or ride hard.
How should a ski jacket fit?
Try it on over the layers you'll actually wear. You should be able to reach forward and overhead without the sleeves pulling past your wrists or the hem riding up above your waist. Snowboard jackets are usually cut longer and roomier than ski jackets, but either works for both sports.
What features are worth paying for?
A helmet-compatible hood, underarm vents for warm days, a powder skirt to keep snow out when you fall, and a sleeve pocket for your lift pass make the biggest everyday difference. Fully taped seams are worth having if you ski in wet conditions.
