Our Favorite Women’s Ski Clothing

One of our best-sellers, the Norrona Lofoten Gore-Tex Insulated ski jacket balances warmth and all-weather performance. It uses a two-layer Gore-Tex waterproofing that offers a whopping 20k rating (which is fairly high for an insulated ski jacket). It has clean lines with a relaxed fit, but isn’t as loose as some of the modern freeride fits you’ll see in the shell category. The jacket has a ski pass pocket, two hip pockets, and a chest pocket externally. You also get an internal chest pocket, so no shortage of stashable spaces here. Norrona manages to pack a ton of high-end features here, and this jacket is breathable, weatherproof, and the light insulation is perfectly targeted to give you warmth where you need it, without feeling bulky.

Alex: The targeted insulation is warm and cozy on cold days, and lets me minimize how many layers I have to wear under my ski jacket. And for an insulated jacket, this feels remarkably breathable. I can be caught wearing this with a light shirt underneath on a spring day, or mid-winter with a warm mid-layer under.

This jacket is pretty much everything you could ask for in a freeride ski jacket. It has a relaxed fit, premium waterproofing with Gore-Tex Pro, and plenty of pockets. The zippers are beefy with big pulls that are easy to use with gloves on. The oversized hood goes over a helmet easily, and the oversized pockets mean you can stash small water bottles and snacks easily. No breaks for water and snacks means longer days out in the mountains shredding with your pals.

Lydia: This jacket really wants for nothing- especially in the pocket department! I am so impressed with the Vassi GTX Pro’s breathability, waterproofing, and bonus features (especially the roomy interior and exterior pockets, built in goggle wipe, and venting around the face). I plan to ski in this jacket for as long as it’ll last, and with that high-tech Swedish technology, I have no doubt it’ll be my go-to for a long time.

Move freely and comfortably in the Skytour AscentShell Jacket. Built with a remarkably stretchy AscentShell membrane, this jacket offers a lightweight, breathable, and fully waterproof solution for backcountry skiers. The flexible fabric adapts to your movements, ensuring unrestricted mobility on demanding ascents and descents. Stay dry and comfortable without feeling weighed down, thanks to its streamlined design and advanced membrane technology. Functional features like pit zips and a secure hood add to its performance-driven design

The Switch Cargo Insulated Pant delivers a blend of robust weather protection and exceptional mobility. Featuring a fully waterproof build and 2-way stretch fabric, these pants adapt to your movements and keep you dry in challenging conditions. Light insulation in key areas provides warmth without bulk, and inner thigh vents allow for customizable temperature control. The relaxed fit and articulated legs contribute to a comfortable, unrestricted experience, whether you’re carving turns or winding down in the

A total classic, you’ll find many Powder7 staffers rocking these bibs around the hill. Flylow has managed to blend an ultra comfortable face fabric with solid weatherproofing, and a killer fit. It’s flattering without being too tailored, and fits in plenty of pockets. Bibs offer you full coverage for powder days, and squeak in a little extra warmth. They’ve been some of our best sellers for some time, with good reason.

The Foxy bib is so good, Flylow has made a few alternatives. The Moxie Bib offers a slightly more straight leg cut, with more room around the upper thighs. There’s also an insulated version that’ll give you a little extra warmth on those cool days.

Amy: The Flylow Foxy Bibs were my go-to ski pants seven seasons ago, and I fell in love. Hard. I found them to be easier to move in than other ski pants I’ve worn, and the bib style kept my torso and lower back warm without the risk of overheating on hikes and climbs. I’m 5’8″ 125 and wear a medium.

This is a super interesting piece of ski apparel. It’s a knit merino baselayer that has a few…holes. The idea is that it allows for nice ventilation for high output activities while still retaining the warmth of a thicker merino layer. This is perfect for quite cold days that require some extra warmth, but when you’re still working up a sweat. The built-in hoody is perfect for sneaking under a helmet or for extra warmth in the parking lot or on the skin track.

If wool makes you itchy, TNF has a great alternative. The Summit Pro 120 Crew is a polyester blend that will keep you feeling comfortable and itch-less if your skin is sensitive to wool. It offers all the same great moisture wicking and warmth that would offer with a cool double knit design. The seams are low profile, keeping them comfortable against the skin.

This mid-layer is iconic. Ideal as a mid-layer for cold temperatures where you need to bundle up but still need something breathable or as a standalone layer for sunny days. The Coreloft insulation keeps you warm on winter days, and retains warmth even with wet. The jacket fits smoothly and comfortably under shell jackets as a mid-layer or standalone for sunnier days. Light, soft Tyono fabric provides breathability that’s necessary for skiing, while a DWR finish keeps moisture from seeping in. For higher exertion or warmer weather, the smooth-faced, air-permeable fleece stretch side panels allow heat to escape quickly.

One of our staff’s favorite midlayers, the R1 Air Zip is a cozy midlayer that works just as well under a shell as it does as a fleece to wear around town. The unique zig-zag pattern helps wick moisture and retain warmth at the same time. It’s perfect for high output activities in cold weather since it will keep you warm when temps are cold, but keep you dry and wick the sweat away as you work up some heat.
