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

- 28,000 mm water column, fully seam sealed
- 60 g/m² fill: no separate midlayer needed
- Radio pocket with antenna exit and RECCO®
- Fixed insulation: too warm for mild spring days
- About 830 g — a lift jacket, not a touring shell
- 40 g/m² sleeves: arms chill on cold chairlifts
The Peak Performance Alpine GORE-TEX 2L Insulated Shell Jacket Women is a fully waterproof resort ski jacket with insulation built in, made for full days on and off the piste in cold, wet mountain weather. It combines a 28,000 mm water column and fully seam sealed GORE-TEX construction with 60 g/m² recycled Pinneco Mantle™ insulation in the body, so one jacket does the work of a shell plus a separate midlayer.
Who is this jacket for?
This jacket suits a skier who rides lifts all day, on groomed runs and in lift-accessed off-piste terrain, and wants warmth without stacking layers. It also works as a winter jacket in persistent rain and wet snow. It is not the jacket for high-output uphill days: with fixed insulation and roughly 830 g on the scale, the Alpine GORE-TEX 2L Insulated Shell Jacket Women is too warm and too heavy for skinning at pace, and it does not pack down small in a daypack.
How waterproof and how warm is it?
The GORE-TEX 2-layer laminate uses a 100% ePTFE membrane rated at 28,000 mm water column, with every seam sealed and a PFC-free DWR finish on the face fabric. Breathability is rated below RET 9. Insulation is zoned: 60 g/m² through the body and 40 g/m² in the sleeves and hood. That is light to moderate warmth — enough for cold, damp lift days over a base layer, less so for standing still in deep cold without an extra layer.
Which size should you choose?
The Alpine GORE-TEX 2L Insulated Shell Jacket Women has a regular cut and is offered in XS to XL. Order your usual size and check the Peak Performance size chart before you decide. Because the insulation is already in the jacket, a base layer and a thin to medium midlayer fit underneath in that same size. The hood takes a ski helmet, and the sleeve hems adjust over gloves with velcro straps.
How is the Alpine GORE-TEX 2L Insulated Shell Jacket Women constructed?
Peak Performance builds this jacket as a two-layer GORE-TEX Insulated system: a 100% ePTFE membrane bonded to a 100% Polyamide 6.6 face fabric, with a separate 100% recycled polyester lining hanging behind it rather than a bonded backer. The insulation sits between membrane and lining — 60 g/m² in the body, 40 g/m² in the sleeves and hood — which keeps the arms slimmer where a ski jacket needs movement. All seams are sealed, exposed zippers are YKK AquaGuard®, and the hood brim is laminated so it holds its shape in wind. Two-layer construction with a hanging lining is heavier and bulkier than a three-layer shell of the same water column; the trade is softer handle and insulation you do not have to carry separately.
Is it suitable for resort skiing or ski touring?
Resort skiing is where the Alpine GORE-TEX 2L Insulated Shell Jacket Women belongs. The snowskirt and adjustable hem keep snow out in a fall, the two-way adjustable hood with Cohæsive™ cord hardware fits over a helmet and still turns with your head, and the radio pocket with antenna exit plus the RECCO® reflector cover lift-accessed off-piste days. Zippered vents under the sleeves are the only way to dump heat, since the insulation is fixed — on warm spring afternoons that ceiling arrives quickly. For skinning uphill, the roughly 830 g weight and the permanent fill put this jacket outside its range; a lighter uninsulated shell is the better tool there.
What is it made of and how do you wash it?
The shell face is 100% Polyamide 6.6 over a 100% ePTFE membrane, the lining is 100% recycled polyester and the filling is 100% recycled polyester. The cuffs are 78% polyamide with 22% elastane, which is what gives the elastic wrist gaiters and thumbholes their stretch. Wash the jacket inside out at 40 °C on a delicate cycle with a technical detergent, with all zippers closed and the goggle wipe cloth removed first. Skip fabric softener, bleach, ironing and dry cleaning. Take it out of the machine promptly and tumble dry on low — the heat reactivates the water repellent finish and is the single best thing you can do for its lifespan.
What makes this jacket more sustainable?
The durable water repellent treatment on the Alpine GORE-TEX 2L Insulated Shell Jacket Women is PFC-free. The Pinneco Mantle™ insulation is recycled, with a filling of 100% recycled polyester, and the lining is 100% recycled polyester as well.
