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.
If you have chosen to send via another carrier, please write the return address on the parcel:

- 20,000 mm waterproof, fully seam sealed
- 40 g/m² insulation in body, sleeves and hood
- Zip-off sleeves and RECCO® reflector
- No powder skirt, only a hem drawcord
- 40 g/m²: too light for standing in deep cold
- Relaxed cut, not a trim silhouette
The Peak Performance Edge HIPE® 2L Insulated Shell Jacket is a waterproof men's ski jacket with light synthetic insulation built in, made for freeride and lift-served resort skiing. A two-layer HIPE® membrane rated at 20,000 mm water column and 20,000 g/m²/24h, fully sealed seams and 40 g/m² insulation across body, sleeves and hood let you ski in one layer instead of a shell plus a separate midlayer. Zip-off sleeves and a relaxed freeride cut separate it from a standard insulated ski jacket.
Who is the Edge HIPE® 2L Insulated Shell Jacket for?
This Peak Performance ski jacket suits the skier who wants one jacket for resort laps and off-piste days in cold, wet, windy weather and would rather not stack layers underneath. It is not built for high-output ski touring: an insulated two-layer shell runs warm when you are skinning, and it does not pack down into a backpack. It is also not a climbing or alpinism jacket. If you want down rather than synthetic fill, or a trim, close-fitting silhouette, this is not the right jacket.
How warm and how waterproof is this jacket?
Waterproofing is 20,000 mm with fully seam-sealed construction, breathability is 20,000 g/m²/24h, and the fabric is windproof. Warmth comes from synthetic sheet insulation at 40 g/m² in the body, 40 g/m² in the sleeves and 40 g/m² in the hood. That is deliberately light: enough while you are skiing on a cold, damp day, not enough for standing still in deep cold. Arm ventilation lets you shed heat on warmer runs.
Which size should you choose?
The Edge HIPE® 2L Insulated Shell Jacket has a relaxed fit, the roomiest cut Peak Performance builds for freeride skiing, with freedom of movement as the design goal. Order against the size chart on this page and take your normal size; the relaxed cut already leaves room for a base layer and a thin midlayer without going up a size. The jacket is offered in S, M, L and XL.
How is the Edge HIPE® 2L Insulated Shell Jacket built?
Peak Performance uses its own HIPE® membrane here in a two-layer construction: a 100% polyamide face fabric bonded to a 100% polyurethane membrane, with a separate 100% recycled polyester lining hanging inside. That combination delivers 20,000 mm of water column and 20,000 g/m²/24h of moisture transport, and every seam is sealed so water cannot enter through the stitching. Between shell and lining sits a synthetic sheet insulation at 40 g/m² in the body, sleeves and hood. A two-layer build with a loose lining is heavier and less compressible than a three-layer shell, which is the trade-off for having the insulation already inside the jacket.
What does this jacket do on a freeride day?
Freeride skiing is the intended discipline, and the details follow from it. The hood adjusts in both height and width with one hand, so you can tighten it without taking off a glove, and a laminated brim keeps it in shape in driving snow. A RECCO® reflector is built in for organised rescue. Elastic inner wrist gaiters with thumbholes keep snow out after a fall, and a goggle wiper sits ready for a fogged lens. Where it stops: the feature set does not include a powder skirt, so deep snow is held back by the adjustable hem drawcord alone, and venting is limited to the arm vents. On spring days you can zip the sleeves off entirely and ski in the vest.
What is it made of and how do you wash it?
The shell face is 100% polyamide, the membrane 100% polyurethane, and both the lining and the filling are 100% recycled polyester. Polyamide takes abrasion from edges, packs and chairlifts well, which matters on a jacket cut for resort use. Wash the Edge HIPE® 2L Insulated Shell Jacket inside out at 40 °C with all zippers closed, using a technical detergent rather than a standard one, and skip fabric softener: softener coats the face fabric and reduces its water repellency. Tumble dry on low afterwards, which reactivates the water-repellent treatment, and take the jacket out of the machine promptly instead of leaving it damp. No bleach, no dry cleaning, no professional wet cleaning. A cool iron is allowed.
What are the sustainability credentials?
This Peak Performance ski jacket is made without intentionally added PFAS. Both the lining and the insulation filling are 100% recycled polyester, so the two largest internal components use recycled input rather than virgin fibre.
