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!

- Three-layer stretch softshell, 640 g for touring
- Half-leg vents and 2-way zips over ski boots
- RECCO reflector and snow gaiters at the hem
- Only critical seams sealed, not a full hardshell
- No insulation: layer up for static cold days
- Cordura reinforcement only at the bottom leg
The Peak Performance Ascent Softshell Bib Pants Women are three-layer softshell bib pants built for ski touring, where stretch and airflow on the climb count for more than full hardshell armour. A polyurethane membrane sits between a recycled polyester face and backer, the critical seams are sealed, and the surface carries a PFC-free DWR finish. At 640 g, with half-leg ventilation zips and a RECCO Rescue System reflector, they are made to be skinned in rather than stood around in.
Who are these bib pants for?
These are for the skier who earns her turns: regular skinning, ski mountaineering approaches, winter hiking and snowshoeing, plus resort days in dry to mixed conditions. The Peak Performance Ascent Softshell Bib Pants Women are not the right choice for long days of heavy rain or saturated wet snow, because only the critical seams are sealed. They also carry no insulation, so cold, static lift days need warm layers underneath.
How much weather protection do they give?
Protection comes from the construction rather than from a padded build: a three-layer softshell with a 100% polyurethane membrane, waterproof and wind-blocking panels, sealed critical seams and a PFC-free durable water repellent treatment. Snow gaiters with anti-slip elastic close off the bottom leg, and Cordura reinforcement guards the hem against ski edges and crampon points. Half-leg ventilation zips dump heat on the uphill.
Which size should you choose?
The Ascent Softshell Bib Pants Women have a regular cut with articulated legs and stretch fabric, so they sit close without restricting a long stride. Available in S, M, L and XL. Check your hip and inseam measurements against the size chart on this page. Adjustable suspenders and velcro straps at the waistband fine-tune waist and bib height over a base layer or midlayer bottoms, and the 2-way leg zips open out over ski boots.
What does the three-layer construction actually do?
The main shell of the Peak Performance Ascent Softshell Bib Pants Women bonds three elements into one fabric: a face of 93% recycled polyester with 7% elastane, a 100% polyurethane membrane, and a 100% recycled polyester backer. Because the three are laminated together there is no loose lining to shift or wet out, and the elastane in the face lets the fabric move with a high step-up. A second shell panel of 52% recycled polyamide, 36% polyamide and 12% elastane adds stretch where the body flexes most. The critical seams are sealed and the surface is treated with a PFC-free durable water repellent finish, so light snow and spindrift bead off rather than soak in.
Are the Ascent bib pants suitable for ski touring?
Ski touring is what this bib was designed around. The half-leg ventilation zips open over the thigh and calf to release heat on a long skin track, and the low-profile bib construction keeps bulk down under a harness or pack hipbelt. At the hem, 2-way zippered openings let you open the leg from the bottom over a ski boot without taking the bib off, and the snow gaiters with anti-slip elastic seal against the boot cuff. A RECCO Rescue System reflector is built in for organised rescue. Where the bib stops is in sustained wet weather: with waterproof panels and only the critical seams sealed, a full day of rain or heavy wet snow will eventually find a way through. It also carries no insulation, so for cold chairlift laps you need insulating layers beneath it.
What is it made of and how do you care for it?
The fabric mix is mostly recycled polyester and polyamide with elastane for stretch, lined with polyamide and polyester, and reinforced with Cordura at the bottom leg where abrasion is highest. Pocket bags are 57% polyester and 43% recycled polyester. Machine wash at 40 degrees Celsius on a delicate cycle, inside out and with the zips closed, using a technical detergent so the water repellent finish keeps working. Skip fabric softener, bleach and dry cleaning. Line dry in the shade or tumble dry on low, and take the bib out of the machine promptly.
How sustainable is this bib?
Two concrete points: the durable water repellent treatment is PFC-free, and a large share of the fibres is recycled, including recycled polyester in the main three-layer shell, recycled polyamide in the secondary shell panel and recycled polyester in the pocket fabric.
