FAQ: Frequently Asked Questions About Ski Touring Jackets

How to choose a ski touring jacket?

Prioritize breathability for ascents and waterproofing for descents. Check for underarm vents and compatibility with your backpack.

What is the difference between a softshell and a hardshell?

Softshells excel in breathability for intense efforts, while hardshells offer maximum weather protection. Ideally, you should own both depending on the conditions.

Can a regular ski jacket be used for ski touring?
