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

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

- 231 gsm Polartec Power Grid with airflow grid back
- Thumbholes and zipped chest pocket, 395 grams
- 60% recycled polyester, no added PFAS
- No membrane: not weather protection on its own
- Air-permeable grid fleece, needs a shell in wind
- One chest pocket, no hand pockets, no hood
The Peak Performance Trail Polartec® Power Grid® Half Zip Women is a 231 gsm grid fleece midlayer built for aerobic mountain days, where moving air matters more than weather protection. It weighs 395 grams, stretches in four directions and works both under a ski shell and as a stand-alone top. The grid back is the point: channels in the fabric move warm, damp air away instead of trapping it.
Who is this fleece for?
This half zip suits a woman who wants one breathable fleece for touring, hiking and resort days under a shell, with thumbholes and a zipped chest pocket for a phone or a lift pass. It is not an outer layer in rain or wet snow, and it is not the right choice if you mainly stand still in cold or windy weather — the Trail Polartec® Power Grid® Half Zip Women has no membrane, no hood and no hem adjustment.
How warm and how breathable is the Trail Polartec Half Zip?
Warmth comes only from the midweight 231 gsm Polartec® Power Grid™ flat fleece; there is no insulation fill. That puts it in the active-warmth bracket: comfortable while you are generating heat, and best combined with a windproof layer once you stop. The grid construction is deliberately air-permeable, which is what keeps it from overheating on climbs and helps it dry quickly.
Which size should you choose?
The Peak Performance Trail Polartec® Power Grid® Half Zip Women has a regular fit: close enough to layer smoothly under a ski shell, loose enough to wear over a base layer without pulling. Sizes run XS to XL, with XS offered in Black and Mountain Lake only. Compare your measurements with the Peak Performance size chart on this page before ordering.
What is Polartec® Power Grid™ and how does this fleece use it?
The Peak Performance Trail Polartec® Power Grid® Half Zip Women is made from midweight 231 gsm Polartec® Power Grid™ flat fleece: a smooth face with a gridded back. The raised grid holds a thin layer of warm air against the body while the channels between it let moisture and heat escape, so the fabric regulates rather than insulates. Elastane in the blend gives the fleece stretch, and flatlock seams keep the stitching flat against the skin and under a pack strap. A YKK reversed coil half zip with a chin guard at the top opens the stand-up collar for quick dumping of heat, and the patch chest pocket closes with a reverse coil zipper.
Is this half zip suitable for ski touring, hiking and resort skiing?
On the skin track and on the trail this fleece half zip does its best work: the grid back keeps air circulating on long climbs, the thumbholes hold the sleeves in place under gloves, and at 395 grams it is light enough to keep on all day. For resort skiing it belongs under a shell, where it adds active warmth without bulk. It stops where weather starts — with no membrane, no stated water column and no taped seams, rain and wet snow go straight through, and the air-permeable grid gives little wind protection. There is no hood and no adjustable hem, so the shell over it has to supply both. Storage is limited to one zipped chest pocket; there are no hand pockets for gloves or skins.
What is it made of and how do you wash it?
The shell of the Peak Performance Trail Polartec® Power Grid® Half Zip Women is 60% recycled polyester, 33% polyester and 7% elastane — a blend that holds its shape, dries fast and takes repeated washing well. Machine wash at 40 °C, inside out, with zippers closed and with similar colours. Skip fabric softener: it coats the fibres and dulls the airflow the grid structure is built for. Bleach and dry cleaning are out, and the fleece should not be ironed. Tumble drying on low is allowed, or dry it flat in the shade, and take it out promptly so the fabric does not set creases.
What makes this fleece more responsible?
Two concrete points. The fleece is made without intentionally added PFAS, and the shell fabric contains 60% recycled polyester. A single breathable midlayer that covers touring, hiking and resort layering also means one fewer garment in the wardrobe.
