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?

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

- 850 fill power down, 175 g fill in size L
- 27 g/m2 face fabric, packs into its own pocket
- Helmet-compatible hood, one-hand adjustment
- No membrane: down loses warmth once wet
- 10D face fabric snags on edges and rock
- Close cut: no room for a thick fleece under it
The Norrøna lyngen down850 Hood is a lightweight men's down jacket with a hood, built as the insulation layer in the lyngen ski touring line. It uses 850 fill power down — 175 g of fill in size L — behind a down-proof 10D recycled nylon face fabric of 27 g/m2, and it compresses into its own pocket. The point of this jacket is warmth per gram and per litre of pack space, not weather protection.
Who is the lyngen down850 Hood for?
This is a jacket for a ski tourer who wants maximum warmth for minimum weight and wears it at transitions, on summit stops and on the descent, or under a shell on resort and sidecountry days. It also works as a belay and rest-stop layer in alpine terrain. It is not the jacket for you if you want one outer garment that handles sustained rain or wet snow, or if you plan to skin uphill in mild conditions — at this fill weight you will overheat, and there are no pit zips.
How warm is the Norrøna lyngen down850 Hood?
Warmth comes from 175 g of RDS 2.0 certified 850 fill power down (measured in men's size L), held in a down-proof weave. The helmet-compatible storm hood adjusts with one hand, the collar has brushed chin protection, the hem pulls in with one hand and internal Powerstretch cuffs seal the sleeves. A PFC-free DWR finish sheds light snow and brief drizzle, but there is no membrane, so loft and warmth drop once the down gets wet.
Which size should you choose?
The Norrøna lyngen down850 Hood has a close technical cut with a Y-cut body and articulated sleeves, so it follows the body and moves with an arm reach. Use the size chart on this page to compare your chest measurement. Plan it over a base layer or a thin mid layer; a thick fleece underneath will fill the cut. Offered in M, L and XL.
How is the Norrøna lyngen down850 Hood built?
The Norrøna lyngen down850 Hood is built around two numbers: a face fabric of woven down-proof 10D recycled nylon at 27 g/m2, and 850 fill power down inside it, 175 g of fill in men's size L. High fill power means the down traps more air per gram, so a modest fill weight still lofts into a thick insulating layer. The down-proof weave keeps the fill where it belongs and blocks most wind on its own; a PFC-free DWR finish on the outside handles snow brushing off a pack or a short shower. The whole jacket compresses into its own pocket, which is why it travels in a touring pack rather than on your back all day.
Is the lyngen down850 Hood suitable for ski touring?
Yes — that is the discipline this down jacket was built for. On a touring day the lyngen down850 Hood lives in the pack during the climb and comes out at the transition, on the summit and at belays, where 850 fill power down restores warmth fast. On resort and sidecountry days it works as an insulation layer under a hardshell, with the helmet-compatible hood usable under or instead of the shell hood. It stops at weather: with no membrane, this is not a waterproof ski shell, and sustained rain or wet snow is the one condition in which it loses its advantage. It also stops at abrasion — a 10D, 27 g/m2 nylon snags and tears more readily than a standard shell fabric, so keep it away from ski edges, crampons, rock and rope work.
What is the Norrøna lyngen down850 Hood made of and how do you wash it?
The face fabric is recycled nylon in a 10D down-proof weave with a PFC-free DWR finish. The insulation is RDS 2.0 certified down with a fill power of 850, and the internal cuffs are Powerstretch. Down needs a gentler routine than a shell: wash gently at 40°C with similar colours, with all zippers closed, and skip bleach, ironing and dry cleaning. Tumble dry on a low setting together with a few tennis balls — the balls break up clumped down and bring the loft back, which is what keeps the warmth-to-weight of this jacket intact over seasons.
What makes the lyngen down850 Hood a more responsible choice?
The down in the Norrøna lyngen down850 Hood is certified to the Responsible Down Standard 2.0 (Textile Exchange), the face fabric is recycled nylon, and the water-repellent finish is PFC-free. This style is also recorded as a bluesign® APPROVED article, certified to the Global Recycled Standard (GRS) and to OEKO-TEX STANDARD 100.
