Meer informatieWhat 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.
Our premium ski jackets combine functionality, style, and top quality, so you can fully enjoy your winter sports adventure. Explore our collection and find your perfect insulated ski jacket!

- 60 g/m2 Swisswool warmth that keeps working
- 246 g, with vented merino fleece grid panels
- Chest pocket reachable with a backpack on
- No membrane: needs a shell in lasting rain
- 60 g/m2 wool only in the panels, not for standing
- Athletic fit leaves no room for a thick midlayer
The ORTOVOX Westalpen Swisswool Hybrid Jacket Women is an insulating jacket for ski touring and high-alpine touring, built from 60 g/m2 Swisswool panels combined with MERINO FLEECE GRID panels. At 246 g it is designed to stay on while you move uphill, with wool warmth where you need it and a vented fleece grid where you generate heat. It is water- and wind-resistant, not waterproof, so it works as a layer under a shell rather than as the shell itself.
Who is this jacket for?
This is a jacket for a ski tourer or high-alpine mountaineer who wants a breathable wool insulating layer she can keep on during the climb and who carries a separate waterproof shell for bad weather. It also suits mountaineering, alpine climbing as an insulating layer and cool-weather hiking. It is not the jacket for lift-served freeride days in deep snow, for prolonged rain or wet snow, or for long static periods in the cold such as belaying or waiting on a summit.
How warm is the Westalpen Swisswool Hybrid Jacket?
Warmth comes from 60 g/m2 Swisswool padding (75% virgin wool, 25% polylactide) inside the TEC-STRETCH panels. The MERINO FLEECE GRID zones carry no insulation; they rely on a channel structure with merino wool on the inner face. That split is deliberate: it is moving insulation for active days, not a cold-weather parka. The raised collar has Swisswool at the chin and fleece grid at the neck.
Which size should you choose?
ORTOVOX cuts this jacket in its athletic fit, the closest-fitting of its labels. The photo model is 1.70 m and wears size M; the video model is 1.74 m and also wears M. Compare your chest, waist and hip measurements with the size chart on this page. Plan it as a layer over a thin base layer, not over a thick fleece.
How is the ORTOVOX Westalpen Swisswool Hybrid Jacket Women constructed?
The jacket is a hybrid of two fabrics. The TEC-STRETCH panels are padded with 60 g/m2 Swisswool, a wool insulation of Swiss regional origin made up of 75% virgin wool and 25% polylactide, and carry outer inserts of 100% polyamide. The remaining zones use MERINO FLEECE GRID: 66% polyester, 21% merino wool, 7% polyamide and 6% elastane, with merino on the inner face and a channel structure through the fabric. Elastic cuffs and an elastic hem close the jacket off at the extremities, and the single chest pocket is positioned so you can still reach it with a backpack on. Total weight is 246 g.
Is the Westalpen Swisswool Hybrid Jacket suitable for ski touring?
Ski touring and high-alpine touring are what this jacket was built for. The merino fleece grid panels are air-permeable by design, so body heat and moisture can escape on the climb instead of building up under a closed jacket, while the wool-filled panels keep the core and chin warm. Wind resistance comes from the Swisswool TEC-STRETCH panels only. Where the jacket stops is weather: there is no membrane, and the water repellency is a finish rather than protection, so persistent rain or wet snow calls for a hardshell over the top. ORTOVOX itself positions this garment clearly lower for freeride than for touring and high alpine use, which matches how it behaves on a deep-snow lift day.
What are the materials and how do you wash it?
The main fabric is a merino-blend fleece grid; the padded panels combine a polyamide outer with Swisswool filling. Wool regulates warmth while you work and keeps insulating when it picks up moisture, and the polyamide inserts take the rub of pack straps and harness. The jacket asks for a particularly gentle wash programme, so treat it with more care than a standard synthetic fleece. It contains no non-textile parts of animal origin.
What makes this a responsible choice?
The ORTOVOX Westalpen Swisswool Hybrid Jacket Women is made in Europe, in Serbia, in FAIR WEAR FOUNDATION member production. The wool is sourced under the ORTOVOX Wool Promise, the brand's own animal welfare and traceability standard, and Swisswool has been used by ORTOVOX as an insulation material since 2011. The jacket is PFC-free.
