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!

- 28.000 mm GORE-TEX 2L, fully seam sealed
- 60 g/m2 Pinneco Mantle insulation in the body
- RECCO reflector and Cordura-reinforced cuffs
- Insulation is fixed: no layer to remove
- Vents run half the leg, not full side zips
- Waist-height pant, less cover than a bib
The Peak Performance Alpine Gore-Tex 2L Insulated Shell Pants are men's insulated ski pants for full days in the resort in cold weather: a two-layer GORE-TEX construction with a 28.000 mm water column, fully seam sealed, and 60 g/m2 of recycled Pinneco Mantle™ insulation through the body. Because the insulation is built in, one pair does the job of a shell plus a separate warm trouser. Cordura® reinforcement at the bottom leg takes the abuse from boot buckles and ski edges.
Who are these ski pants for?
These are for the skier who rides lifts from first to last chair, drops off-piste between runs and wants warmth without stacking layers. They are less suited to high-output uphill days: the 60 g/m2 insulation cannot be taken out and ventilation is limited to half-leg side zips. At 780 g they are also heavier than a plain shell, so gram-counting touring and technical climbing are outside their range, and the waist-height cut gives less deep-snow coverage than a bib.
How waterproof and how warm are the Alpine Gore-Tex 2L pants?
The GORE-TEX 2L Insulated construction uses a 100% ePTFE membrane rated at a 28.000 mm water column, with every seam sealed and exposed zippers in YKK AquaGuard®. Breathability is stated as RET below 9, which is a technical membrane figure rather than a comfort guarantee: on mild days you regulate with the half-leg zips. Warmth comes from 60 g/m2 of synthetic insulation in the body, specified for the body zone only.
Which size should you choose?
The Alpine Gore-Tex 2L Insulated Shell Pants have a regular fit, available in S to 2XL, and are cut to go over a base layer with the insulation already inside. Check your measurements against the size chart on this page before ordering. The waistband adjusts with velcro straps and takes a belt or suspenders, the legs are articulated, and the snow gaiters with anti-slip elastic are made to sit over ski boots.
How is the GORE-TEX 2L Insulated construction built?
In the Peak Performance Alpine Gore-Tex 2L Insulated Shell Pants, a 100% polyamide 6.6 face fabric is bonded to a 100% ePTFE membrane, with the insulation and lining hanging free behind it — that is what the 2L in the name means. The recycled Pinneco Mantle™ filling sits between the membrane and two linings, one in recycled polyester and one in polyamide. All seams are sealed and the exposed zippers are YKK AquaGuard®, so the two weak points of any ski pant — stitching and zip lines — are addressed rather than left to the DWR finish alone. The trade-off is physical: a lined two-layer build is heavier and less compressible than a three-layer shell, and the stated 780 g reflects that.
How do these pants handle piste and off-piste skiing?
Built for resort skiing first. Loops at the top waistband snap into a Peak Performance ski jacket's snow skirt system, which closes the gap at the waist on a cold chairlift and in a fall. Snow gaiters with anti-slip elastic seal around ski boots, and Cordura® reinforcement protects the bottom leg where edges and buckles cut. Off-piste, the RECCO® Rescue System reflector adds a passive search signal for rescue teams — it is not an avalanche transceiver and does not replace one. Zippered hand, leg and back pockets keep a lift pass and tools accessible with gloves on. Where these pants stop: half-leg side ventilation is enough for a cold day that warms up, but not for sustained uphill effort, and there is no insulation stated for the lower leg or seat.
What are they made of and how do you wash them?
The shell is 100% polyamide 6.6 over a 100% ePTFE membrane, the filling is 100% recycled polyester, and the linings are 100% recycled polyester and 100% polyamide. Polyamide 6.6 is the abrasion-resistant choice for a garment that lives against boots and edges. Machine wash at 40 °C on a delicate cycle, inside out, with zippers closed and similar colours. Use a technical detergent and skip fabric softener and bleach — softener coats the face fabric and flattens the water-repellent treatment. Remove promptly after washing, line dry in the shade, or tumble dry low: the low heat cycle reactivates the water repellency. Do not iron, dry clean or professionally wet clean.
What is recycled in these pants?
The Pinneco Mantle™ insulation is 100% recycled polyester, as is the main lining. That covers the two highest-volume fabrics inside the pant.
