Ski Jackets
Keep warm on the slopes by investing in ski jackets that are suitable for the weather you'll experience. From minus 20 through to just above 0 degrees, you need to ensure your core is warm to really enjoy your time on the slopes. Too often a poor jacket can leave your skiing less than enjoyable.
Buying the right ski jacket will be one of the most important investments you make, as it can make all the difference to whether you enjoy your skiing or not. But there are a number of terms it can be useful to get your head around first, terms like waterproof, breathable, windproof and insulation. Check out our buying guide below to ensure that when you do spend your money you spend it wisely.

Here we will attempt to help you understand the terms used to often describe ski jackets. Let's start with the term 'waterproof', pretty essential when you are out skiing.
Waterproof
How waterproof an item is depends on how quickly the fabric absorbs water placed on it in tests. The rating is normally stated in mm from 0 mm to 45,000 mm. Quite simply, the higher the figure the more waterproof an item is. So do check this figure out. Also, look out for whether all the seams are taped as this can make a big difference. In a nutshell, if all the tapes are seamed you have a higher quality waterproof jacket.
Breathable
If your jacket isn't breathable the result will be moisture build up inside your jacket. Not only does that not feel pleasant but it will also cool you down when you stop.So check out what the label says about breathability. In addition to this we would recommend that you wear a moisture wicking thermal base layer which will also work to keep moisture away from your skin.
Windproof
At best a windproofed jacket will block as much wind as possible and ultimately help you to keep warmer. Technical terms to look out for include Polartec Powershield or Windstopper.
Insulation
Many jackets will also offer varying degrees of insulation. There are two main types, down and synthetic. Down is good for lightweight jackets and is extremely effective. Check its 'fill' power as this will tell you how well insulated the jacket is. Synthetic insulation is also effective and has the added advantage of being hypoallergenic. It is also water resistant.
