A lined jacket contains a filling of down, wool or synthetic material.
What 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

- 52 g stretch fleece with 26% merino inside
- Washable goatskin palm with punchhole grip
- Smart finger insert for phone and GPS use
- No membrane: not for wet snow, sleet or rain
- No insulation filling, too light for standing still
- Athletic cut leaves little room for a liner glove
The ORTOVOX Fleece Light Glove Women is a 52-gram stretch fleece glove with merino wool on the inside face and a goatskin leather palm, built for the ascent on a ski tour. There is no membrane and no insulation filling, so what this glove gives you is breathability, stretch and finger feel: enough to work a binding, a buckle or a zip without taking it off. A fine goatskin insert on the index finger lets you operate a smartphone or GPS display with the glove on.
Who is the ORTOVOX Fleece Light Glove Women for?
This glove suits the ski tourer who wants a light, dexterous, breathable glove for the climb and who carries a warmer, weatherproof glove in the pack for the descent or for bad weather. It also works for high alpine touring, light mountaineering and dry all-mountain days. It is not built for freeride or lift-served descents in cold weather, and not for ice or rock climbing — ORTOVOX positions the style at 0 out of 5 for both disciplines within its own range.
How warm is the ORTOVOX Fleece Light Glove Women?
Warmth comes from the fabric alone: a 52 g stretch fleece with 26% virgin merino wool, with the merino sitting against your skin to help regulate moisture while you work uphill. That is enough while you are generating heat and moving. For standing at a lift, long static exposure or deep cold, the ORTOVOX Fleece Light Glove Women on its own is too light.
Which size should you choose?
ORTOVOX cuts this glove in its athletic fit, the closest-fitting of the brand's four labels, so it sits snug across the palm and fingers. Measure the circumference of your hand around the knuckles and compare it with the size chart on this page. The close cut leaves little room for a liner glove underneath.
How is the ORTOVOX Fleece Light Glove Women constructed?
The ORTOVOX Fleece Light Glove Women is built from a single stretch fleece — 67% polyester, 26% virgin wool (merino) and 7% elastane — with the merino on the inside face. There is no membrane and no separate lining: moisture vapour leaves through the fabric directly, which is why this glove breathes the way it does. The elastane keeps the fabric moving with your hand over the knuckles and around the thumb. A goatskin leather palm takes the abrasion from ski poles, skins and ski edges, and a punchhole leather reinforcement adds a second layer of hide where the grip wears first. A pull-on aid speeds up getting the glove back on at a transition, and the smart finger — a fine goatskin insert on the index finger — keeps a phone or GPS display usable without bare hands.
Is the ORTOVOX Fleece Light Glove Women suitable for ski touring?
Ski touring is what this glove is made for. On the ascent, the 52 g fleece dumps heat instead of trapping it, the leather palm holds a pole without slipping, and the thin construction lets you adjust a skin, a buckle or a transceiver with the glove still on. It extends to high alpine touring and light mountaineering in dry conditions. It stops at weather: with no membrane and no water column, wet snow, sleet and rain will soak through, and with no insulation filling it is not a glove for sitting still in the cold. Plan it as the uphill half of a two-glove system, with a warmer, weatherproof pair for the descent.
What is the ORTOVOX Fleece Light Glove Women made of and how do you care for it?
The outer fabric is 67% polyester, 26% virgin wool (merino) and 7% elastane; the palm, the index-finger insert and the reinforcement are 100% goatskin leather. The goatskin palm is washable, which matters on a glove that collects skin glue, sunscreen and sweat over a season. Note that the leather parts are non-textile components of animal origin, so this is not a glove for customers avoiding animal-derived materials. The merino content means the fabric handles repeated damp-and-dry cycles on tour better than it handles rough treatment, so keep the leather away from direct heat sources when drying.
How sustainable is the ORTOVOX Fleece Light Glove Women?
The wool in the ORTOVOX Fleece Light Glove Women falls under the ORTOVOX WOOL PROMISE (OWP), the brand's own standard for animal welfare and traceability in its wool supply. Production sits within ORTOVOX's membership of the FAIR WEAR FOUNDATION (FWF), which audits working conditions at manufacturing sites.
