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
√ Put the enclosed packing slip/order confirmation (or a copy) in the parcel
√ Stick the DPD shipping label on the parcel.

- Heavyweight brushed jersey fleece, double hood
- Ribbed 2x2 hem and cuffs keep draughts out
- Made with organic cotton
- No membrane or DWR: no weather protection
- Cotton blend holds moisture and dries slowly
- Bulky under a slim-cut shell jacket
The Peak Performance Original Graphic Hood is a men's heavyweight cotton-blend hooded sweatshirt from the Original line, built for travel, town and après-ski rather than for the mountain. A dense jersey fleece with a brushed back supplies the warmth, and a double layer hood with a drawcord adjuster gives it more structure than a standard sweatshirt. It carries no membrane and no weather protection of any kind.
Who is the Original Graphic Hood for?
This hoodie suits you if you want a soft, substantial cotton-blend layer for the drive up, the lodge, the bar after the last run and the days in between. It is not for skiing, ski touring or any high-output cold-weather activity: the Peak Performance Original Graphic Hood has no water column, no water-repellent finish and no wind protection, so wet snow and wind go straight through it.
How warm is the Original Graphic Hood, and does it keep rain out?
Warmth comes from fabric weight alone. The heavyweight jersey fleece with a brushed interior and 2x2 rib at the hem and cuffs traps air and blocks draughts around the waist and wrists, which is why this reads as a warm indoor and après layer. There is no insulation fill and no membrane. The cotton in the blend absorbs moisture and dries slowly, so keep the Original Graphic Hood for dry conditions.
Which size should you choose?
The Peak Performance Original Graphic Hood comes in S, M, L and XL. Use the size chart on this page to compare your chest and length measurements before ordering. Keep in mind that a heavyweight brushed fleece takes up space: under a slim-cut shell jacket it will feel bulky, so plan it as a standalone layer or pair it with a roomier shell.
How is the Peak Performance Original Graphic Hood constructed?
The Peak Performance Original Graphic Hood is built from a single heavyweight cotton and polyester jersey fleece, brushed on the inside. There is no membrane, no laminate and no separate lining; the double layer hood is the only place where the fabric doubles up, which gives the hood body and keeps it standing rather than collapsing on your shoulders. A drawcord adjuster closes the hood down, a kangaroo pocket runs across the front, and 2x2 rib finishes the hem and cuffs so the sweatshirt holds its shape after repeated wear. Everything that makes this hoodie warm comes from the fabric weight and the brushed interior.
Can you ski in the Original Graphic Hood?
No. The Original Graphic Hood from Peak Performance is sportswear, and it stops where the weather starts. On a dry day it works as a casual midlayer under a roomy jacket, as travel wear on the train or in the car, and as the layer you pull on in the lodge once the boots are off. In wind or falling snow it offers nothing as an outer layer, and on a skin track or a hard piste lap the cotton in the blend soaks up sweat and stays damp, which makes it cold once you stop. For skiing itself, choose a technical fleece or a shell; for everything around the skiing, this is the piece.
What is the fabric, and how do you care for it?
The main fabric of the Peak Performance Original Graphic Hood is a cotton and polyester jersey blend with a brushed back, and it includes organic cotton. The cotton content gives the handfeel and the weight, the polyester adds shape retention to the body and the ribbed sections. A fabric this dense rewards gentle treatment: wash it with similar colours, keep it away from high heat so the brushed interior stays soft, and follow the care label sewn into the garment. Expect a long service life rather than fast-drying performance.
What makes the Original Graphic Hood a more considered choice?
The Peak Performance Original Graphic Hood is made with organic cotton, part of the Swedish brand's wider focus on quality, longevity and circularity. The construction supports that intent: heavyweight fabric, ribbed hem and cuffs and a reinforced double layer hood are the details that keep a hoodie wearable for years instead of seasons.
