More informationWhat Is an Insulated Ski Jacket and What Are the Options?
An insulated ski jacket is essential for anyone seeking warmth and comfort while skiing or snowboarding. The insulation helps maintain your body temperature, even in the harshest conditions. There are different types of insulation, each with its own advantages. In this guide, we explain the differences so you can make the perfect choice.
Down Insulation: Lightweight and Extremely Warm
A jacket insulated with down is the ideal choice for those looking for maximum warmth without sacrificing comfort. Down provides excellent insulation and is very lightweight, making it perfect for cold, dry conditions. However, keep in mind that down performs less well in wet conditions unless the jacket has been specially treated to resist moisture.
Wool Insulation: Natural and Breathable
Jackets with wool insulation offer a natural alternative. Wool is not only warm but also breathable and retains heat even when damp. This option is ideal for those who prefer natural materials and comfort in varying weather conditions.
Synthetic Insulation: Versatile and Low-Maintenance
Synthetic insulation, such as PrimaLoft or Thinsulate, offers excellent warmth and performs well in wet conditions. This option is often slightly heavier than down but dries quickly and is easier to care for. It’s ideal for active winter sports enthusiasts who value versatility and affordability.
Why Choose an Insulated Ski Jacket?
-
Optimal Warmth: Protect yourself against extreme cold.
-
Comfort During Activity: Maintain your freedom of movement without sacrificing insulation.
-
Suitable for Various Weather Conditions: Whether you're skiing in powder snow or braving a cold wind, an insulated jacket adapts to your needs.
Which Insulation Suits You Best?
The right insulation depends on your personal preferences and the conditions in which you’ll wear the jacket. Looking for ultimate warmth and comfort? Go for down. Need a versatile, low-maintenance option? Consider synthetic materials. Or choose wool for a natural feel.

STEP BY STEP GUIDE:
1. Check your items
√ Has the return period of 14 days after receipt not expired
√ Is the yellow return label (in the case of outerwear and trousers) and all price tags still attached?
√ Is the article unworn and therefore not dirty, damaged or creased?
2. Submit your return online
Enter your own postcode and the full order number (including letters) in the portal to which you can start the return. You can choose to purchase a DPD shipping label via the portal. If you choose this option, print the shipping label. You can download this immediately and it will also be sent to you by e-mail (please check your e-mail address and any spam mail).
You can also choose another carrier outside the portal. We always advise you to send the parcel insured. The DPD label via the portal insures your parcel up to €500.
3. Pack your return
√ Fold the items neatly and close all zips and buttons. Because of the technical materials it is important not to cause serious creases and wrinkles, as these can damage the product.
Then pack the items back in their original packaging and put them in the shipping bag or box. Another bag or box is also fine, as long as it is sturdy so that it arrives undamaged
√ If you have items from several orders that you wish to return, you may simply return them in 1 parcel
√ Put the enclosed packing slip/order confirmation (or a copy) in the parcel
√ Stick the DPD shipping label on the parcel.

- 28,000 mm GORE-TEX with ePE membrane, taped seams
- 40 g/m2 PrimaLoft at thigh, seat, knee and crotch
- Side vents open from waist to knee, both legs
- 804 g in size L: heavy for uphill skinning
- Fixed insulation, too warm for spring days
- Only S-XL, no short or long leg lengths
The Norrøna lofoten Gore-Tex Insulated Pants are men's insulated waterproof shell pants for freeride skiing and snowboarding at the resort and in the sidecountry. A 2-layer woven GORE-TEX construction with an ePE membrane gives a 28,000 mm water column with taped seams, while body-mapped PrimaLoft Silver insulation at 40 g/m2 sits only at the thigh, seat, knee and crotch. That combination replaces the usual pairing of an uninsulated shell and a separate warm layer underneath.
Who are these ski pants for?
They suit a resort and sidecountry freerider who skis cold mid-winter days and wants built-in warmth in a durable waterproof pant. They also work for ordinary on-piste alpine skiing and snowboarding when temperatures stay low. They are not built for high-output ski touring or uphill skinning: 804 g in size L, a 2-layer construction and fixed insulation make them heavier and warmer than a touring pant. They are also the wrong choice for mild or spring conditions, and for skiers who run warm on-piste and prefer a plain shell.
How warm and how waterproof are the lofoten Gore-Tex Insulated Pants?
The shell is a 2-layer woven ePE GORE-TEX fabric with a 100% 150D recycled polyester face at 176 g/m2, taped seams and a 28,000 mm water column. Insulation is 40 g/m2 PrimaLoft Silver, running from the top of the thigh down to the boot at the front and across the seat at the back; the back of the lower leg is left uninsulated. For warmer moments, X-open side vents with water-resistant zippers open from waist to knee.
Which size should you choose?
The Norrøna lofoten pant has a regular fit with articulated knees and a reinforced lower leg hem with snap adjustment, so the leg is cut to be worn over ski boots. The custom-fit waist system and belt loops let you take in a waist that falls between sizes. Sizes run S to XL; check the size chart on this page before ordering.
How is the Norrøna lofoten Gore-Tex Insulated Pants constructed?
The face fabric of the Norrøna lofoten Gore-Tex Insulated Pants is a 2-layer woven GORE-TEX with an ePE membrane, a 100% 150D recycled polyester outer face and a weight of 176 g/m2. All seams are taped. The insulation is PrimaLoft Silver in 100% recycled polyester at 40 g/m2, placed by body mapping rather than across the whole garment. Inside the ankles sits a reinforcement in a 91% nylon / 9% polyester blend at 360 g/m2, the area where ski edges and crampon-free boot buckles do the most damage. Total weight is 804 g in size L.
What do these pants do in freeride and sidecountry riding?
Built for freeride skiing and snowboarding, the lofoten Gore-Tex Insulated Pants handle deep days from the lift: stretchy snow gaiters with friction elastic seal around the boot, and a snap-in solution connects the waist to the powder skirt of a matching jacket. A zip-off bib with suspenders can be added separately if you want more coverage at the back, where the waistband is already cut high. Storage is split across two bellowed thigh pockets, a zipped back pocket, a key card pocket, a tool pocket and an inside mesh phone pocket. Where they stop is uphill work: breathability is moderate for a ski pant, and on a long skin track the side vents from waist to knee are a workaround rather than a solution.
What are the materials and how do you wash them?
Main fabric, insulation and reinforcement in the Norrøna lofoten pant are all synthetic, which keeps care simple. Wash gently at 40 °C with a liquid detergent, together with similar colours, and close every zipper first so the sliders cannot catch the face fabric. Do not bleach, do not iron and do not dry clean. Tumble dry lightly; the gentle heat helps the face fabric recover its water repellency. The 360 g/m2 ankle reinforcement and the snap-adjustable hem are the parts to inspect at the end of each season.
What makes this pant a more sustainable choice?
The face fabric of the lofoten Gore-Tex Insulated Pants is 100% recycled polyester and the PrimaLoft Silver insulation is 100% recycled polyester. The membrane is ePE, expanded polyethylene, and the secondary stretch fabric uses 82% recycled polyamide with 18% elastane. The article is bluesign APPROVED and certified to OEKO-TEX STANDARD 100, the Global Recycled Standard (GRS) and the Recycled Claim Standard 100 (RCS), both from Textile Exchange. Made in Vietnam.
