Designed for men who ski in demanding winter conditions, the WATTS SKI JACKET 20K combines a Dupore-X® 20K/20K membrane with 4-Way Stretch fabric to handle intense sessions both on the slopes and off-piste. Its 3-layer construction and fully heat-sealed seams make it the perfect garment for days when the weather leaves no room for improvisation. The Regular fit ensures freedom of movement without excess bulk.

Waterproofing and breathability that stand up to winter conditions

The SKI20K JACKET features a Dupore-X® membrane offering a water column rating of 20,000 mm and breathability of 20,000 g/m²/24h. These two characteristics, which are rarely found separately in this type of garment, demonstrate the jacket’s ability to block out external moisture while effectively wicking away sweat during sustained physical activity. The DWR water-repellent treatment complements this system by preventing water from soaking into the outer fabric, which is composed of 90% polyester and 10% spandex. Waterproof zippers and heat-sealed seams throughout the garment eliminate the usual weak points when exposed to precipitation.

Thermal Management and Comfort Against the Skin

The microfleece lining at the neck and nape provides targeted insulation where heat loss is most significant, without adding bulk to the jacket. The Lycra cuffs feature thumb loops and Velcro adjustments to seal the bottom of the sleeves tightly, while the anti-chafing microfleece chin guard protects the face from contact with the zipper. A goggle wipe is integrated into a dedicated pocket—a handy feature for days with low visibility.

Protection from the elements and active ventilation

The attached storm hood, adjustable in height and depth along three axes, fits comfortably over a ski helmet without creating any uncomfortable gaps. The snow skirt, featuring a non-slip elastic band, effectively blocks snow from entering during falls or when traversing powder snow. For more strenuous runs, the underarm ventilation zippers allow heat to escape quickly without having to remove the jacket.

Technical Details of the SKI20K JACKET

Several additional features are worth noting to round out the overall picture:

• Ski pass pocket on the sleeve: quick access to your ski pass without taking off your gloves.
• Mesh and zippered interior pockets: secure, breathable storage for small accessories.
• 4-Way Stretch fabric: freedom of movement in all four directions for unrestricted movement.
• 100% polyamide / 100% polyester lining: allows for easy gliding over mid-layers when getting dressed.
