Feminine Fit for Maximum Comfort

Hit the Slopes in Style

Are you the sporty type or do you prefer an elegant look? Our collection offers a wide variety of colors, patterns, sizes, and fits to suit every style. Thoughtful details such as premium zippers or subtle prints make our jackets stand out and complete your ski outfit.

Practical Features for Active Women

Since women tend to get cold more quickly, many of our ski jackets come with enhanced insulation in areas sensitive to cold. Despite their warmth, the jackets are made from lightweight materials so you can move freely without being weighed down.

Essential Extras That Excite Skiers

Lip balm, phone, or gloves—extra pockets keep everything within easy reach. Many models also feature fleece-lined hoods for added comfort, while integrated snow skirts and wind flaps offer full protection from the cold and snow.

Not Just Stylish, but Also Sustainable

For women who value sustainability, we offer PFC-free jackets made from recycled materials. These jackets are also built to last thanks to high-quality craftsmanship—making them reliable companions for many winter seasons, even under the toughest conditions.

Which Women’s Ski Jacket Is Right for Me?

Choosing the right ski jacket depends on your individual needs, skiing style, and the conditions you typically face. Here’s an overview of different types of jackets so you can find the one that suits you best:

- Hardshell Jackets: Perfect for changing weather. These jackets are waterproof, windproof, and breathable but do not provide insulation. Combine them with a midlayer or thermal underwear.

- Down Jackets: Ideal for cold, dry climates. Down jackets offer unbeatable warmth and lightness. They trap body heat effectively and feel incredibly light. Many models are water-repellent and offer a great blend of function and feminine design.

- Fleece Jackets: Highly breathable and flexible, fleece jackets are perfect as a mid-layer. They retain warmth while efficiently wicking moisture—ideal for active skiers.

- Insulated Ski Jackets: Designed for cold conditions, these jackets use synthetic or down insulation to keep you warm and comfortable on the slopes.

What Should I Wear Under a Women’s Ski Jacket?

We recommend wearing functional layers underneath your ski jacket for optimal comfort and protection. The tried-and-true layering system works best:

1. Base Layer: Start with breathable thermal underwear to wick moisture away from your skin. Merino wool or synthetic fabrics are ideal as they dry quickly and insulate well.
2. Mid Layer: A fleece jacket or lightweight insulated midlayer keeps you warm while remaining breathable to help manage moisture.
3. Additional Insulating Layer: For especially cold days, you can add another insulating piece, like a down vest, under your ski jacket.

What Water Column Rating Should My Ski Jacket Have?

The water column rating measures how waterproof your ski jacket is. At Sport Conrad, we recommend a minimum of 10,000 mm for normal snow conditions and light rain. For more intense weather, such as heavy snow or rain, look for jackets rated at 20,000 mm or higher.

Function meets style – how women’s ski jackets perform on snow

Modern ski jackets combine weather protection, insulation, and breathability in one garment. Depending on the model, you’ll find waterproof membranes like GORE-TEX®, Dermizax®, or BD.dry™, synthetic or down insulation, and functional features such as ventilation zips, detachable hoods, powder skirts, and ski pass pockets. You don’t have to choose between style and function – many jackets deliver both in perfect balance.

Which ski jacket suits you? Tips for finding the right one

- For piste skiing: Insulated models offer cozy warmth and comfort for long days on the slopes.

- For ski touring and freeriding: Lightweight hardshell or 3-layer jackets without insulation provide maximum freedom of movement and low weight.
If you often ski in rough weather, look for a water column rating of at least 15,000 mm, sealed seams, and adjustable cuffs and hems.
If you tend to feel cold, opt for jackets with Primaloft® or recycled synthetic insulation for added warmth without compromising performance.

Complete your winter outfit

Combine your new ski jacket with matching women’s ski pants, technical midlayers, breathable base layers, and accessories such as gloves, beanies, or helmets. At Sport Conrad, you’ll find everything you need for an effective layering system – functional, stylish, and sustainably made.
