The Mountain Warehouse Padded Ski Jacket is designed for adult females seeking a functional and stylish outer layer for cold-weather activities. Its key benefit lies in its robust insulation and weather-resistant features, providing comfort down to -30°C. However, users should note that its waterproof rating is moderate at 5000g/m²/24hrs, which may be insufficient for prolonged exposure to heavy rain or snow. This jacket features a contrast quilted design, breathable and DWR-treated fabric, Isotherm insulation, RECCO technology for avalanche rescue, snowproof protection, and stretch material for ease of movement.

RECCO is a two-part rescue system. The jacket contains a passive reflector. Search and rescue teams can use a RECCO detector to locate a buried person. It does not require batteries or activation and is a supplementary safety device.
Refer to the sizing information provided: UK 10 corresponds to a 35-inch chest measurement. It's recommended to measure your chest and compare it to the provided chart for the best fit.
The jacket has a DWR finish and is snowproof, with a breathability rating of 5000g/m²/24hrs. While it offers good protection against light rain and snow, its waterproof rating might not be sufficient for prolonged exposure to heavy downpours.
The jacket is thermally tested to perform in temperatures as low as -30°C, thanks to its Isotherm insulation.
Machine wash on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low heat or air dry. Reapply DWR treatment as needed.
The hood is a 'grown-on' hood, meaning it is permanently attached. However, it is adjustable for a better fit.
Ensure all adjustable features (cuffs, hem, hood) are tightened to seal out cold air. Wear appropriate base and mid-layers underneath. Check that the insulation is not compressed.
The DWR finish may need reapplication. Clean the jacket according to care instructions and then apply a suitable DWR treatment. For heavy precipitation, consider a jacket with a higher waterproof rating.
Clean the zipper teeth with a brush and apply a silicone-based lubricant or wax to help it glide smoothly.
Ensure the snow skirt is correctly aligned with its attachment points before attempting to fasten or unfasten it. Check for any obstructions.
Setup: This jacket requires no initial setup; it is ready to wear out of the package. Ensure all zippers are functional and adjust cuffs, hood, and hem to your desired fit before use.
Compatibility: The RECCO technology is a passive system and requires no power or activation. Its effectiveness depends on rescue teams having RECCO detectors. The jacket is designed for women and is suitable for winter sports and cold-weather activities.
