Ski models are usually warmer than a regular winter jacket, but how warm it should be is very subjective. It depends on the weather conditions on the mountain.
Are you more into the backcountry or do you want to wear the ski jacket in the city? Once you have made a decision, it will be easier for you to pick your favourite and decide between soft, hardshell jackets and other models. Also, you can always play with the layers (base and mid layers) you wear underneath.
The range of models for men is huge. From padded, lightweight jackets, to models that will protect you in the worst weather conditions, you just have to choose. You will find over the head model, with full zip, or half zip, insulated ski jackets, waterproof jackets, the choice is entirely up to you.
Wearing base layers and midlayers is especially recommended if you are looking for a technical hardshell waterproof model. These jackets are made of particularly robust, waterproof and windproof materials and offer freeriders and pros the best protection while being pretty light.
If you opt for a quilted or padded mens jacket (soft shell), you can wear it without a mid layer, because of their insulation which makes them very warm. Therefore, these are particularly well suited for the piste, since you do not freeze at the top of the mountain and you do not feel chilly when waiting at the lifts or the après-ski.
To prevent you from getting wet while on the mountain all day, you should also pay attention to the specs, such as the jacket water column.
You should check if the materials are water-repellent, ice and snow are blocked off at the surface, and the functional material keeps you dry. A good mens jacket should have a water column between 5,000 and 20,000 millimetres, depending on which requirements it should meet; this is a good indicator when looking for jackets and men's ski products in general. It might help you but only if you consider it together with other features.
Most jackets are made of laminated membranes which increase the breathability, in addition to an appropriate upper coating to keep the moisture out. Also, they are often equipped with extras such as gaiters and zippers.Choosing the right waterproof and breathable model is essential to ensure your best time on and off piste.
When choosing, it is crucial to check the seams in areas such as shoulders and chest, where water is more likely to penetrate. With a mens jacket with taped or sealed seams and reinforcements, this can be easily prevented.
On top of materials such as Gore-tex, many brands have also developed their own waterproof and windproof membranes, which are generally a little cheaper without compromising the gear's quality. Most jackets are equipped with two or three layers of laminated membranes that combine protection with functionality.
Ski jackets consist of a water-repellent outer layer and a particularly robust outer fabric. The inside, on the other hand, is usually made of soft and stretch materials or fleece that provide a comfortable feel on the skin and keep you warm without allowing you to sweat.
If the lamination is three layers, this means that another membrane will complement it, to make it completely windproof.
It does not matter if you are looking for a dark model in black, navy blue, grey or maybe green and camo, or if your favourite colour is red. Discover all ranges of colours and patterns from the newest collections of the most popular brands.
It is essential to get the right size; for most ski brands, sizes go from xxs to 2xl. For all products, you will find specs, available sizes, description and price.
The length of a jacket should be a matter of taste. It is essential to keep in mind that a mens jacket should be long enough not to let snow or wind inside, but also consider that if it is too long, it could be difficult lifting it.
