Little tips for buying ski jackets

Good ski jackets for men and women have one thing in common: They are equipped with a waterproof, windproof and very breathable membrane and possess certain characteristics which distinguish a ski jacket from a conventional winter or outdoor jacket. These features includes, for example, a snow skirt (also known as a powder skirt), pit zips for ventilation, a helmet-compatible, fixed or removable hood and several practical pockets for storing a ski pass, cell phone, spare glasses or wallet. Ski jackets for skiing and winter sports can be filled with a warm PrimaLoft padding or are also available as a 3-layer hardshell. Lined ski jackets are often used in combination with a lightweight fleece to keep the skier warm. If wearing an unlined ski jacket, you should apply the onion principle and wear a warming insulating layer or functional ski underwear. Combined with the matching ski pants, skiers and snowboarders will look great on the slopes in the mountains. And let's be honest: In addition to proper skiing technique it's also about looking good on the slopes.
