Spyder CHAMBERS JACKET Ski Jacket

The Spyder Chambers Jacket: 20K waterproofing and Sorona® insulation to tackle winter in the mountains

Designed for skiers who won’t compromise on protection and thermal comfort, the Spyder Chambers Jacket features a 4-way stretch EXO Shield 20K membrane made from recycled polyester, offering 20,000 mm of waterproofing and 20,000 g/m²/24h of breathability. This combination of features ensures an effective barrier against snow and rain while wicking away body moisture during intense runs. Paired with 80 g of Sorona® insulation, it maintains consistent warmth without adding bulk. Designed for intensive winter use on the slopes, it combines all the features expected of a technical ski jacket in this category in a Standard Fit cut.

Waterproofing and breathability: a membrane tailored for alpine conditions

The EXO Shield 20K fabric is at the heart of this jacket’s protection. Its 20K/20K laminate places the Spyder Chambers Jacket in a performance range suited for inclement weather, from light snowfall to late-season downpours. The durable water-repellent (DWR) finish, free of PFAS chemicals, allows water to bead up and roll off the fabric rather than soak it. The 4-way stretch recycled polyester that makes up this fabric also contributes to freedom of movement, without making the jacket stiff when changing positions. To maintain the effectiveness of the water-repellent treatment, simply tumble dry at a moderate temperature or apply a waterproofing spray to reactivate its properties.

Insulation and Warmth: 80 g Sorona® for Controlled Thermal Comfort

The 80 g Sorona® synthetic insulation strikes a balance between lightness and heat retention, making it ideal for active downhill skiing. This type of insulation retains its insulating properties even when damp, a practical advantage during long days or periods of varying exertion. Strategically placed stretch panels on the inside complement this thermal design while maintaining the garment’s overall flexibility, without creating areas of tension during the wide, sweeping movements typical of skiing.

Finishes and Practicality: Details Designed for the Mountains

The Spyder Chambers Jacket incorporates a range of features that make everyday use on the slopes easier. Here are the key elements that define its design:

• Removable, adjustable, helmet-compatible hood: adapts to be worn over a ski helmet for adjustable protection depending on conditions.
• YKK® AquaGuard® zippers on the front and chest pockets: water-resistant for enhanced waterproofing at the openings.
• RFID pocket on the left forearm: allows you to pass through ski lift turnstiles without taking out your ski pass.
• Interior mesh pocket with built-in cleaning cloth: designed for storing and maintaining your ski goggles.
• Stretch cuffs with thumb loops: prevent cold air from seeping in at the wrists and work with the tab adjustments for a precise fit.

The fixed snow skirt with snap-back feature prevents powder from getting inside during falls or when skiing through deep snow. Underarm ventilation zippers allow you to adjust airflow based on the intensity of your activity, preventing overheating during ascents or technical runs. The hem is adjustable with a drawcord to tailor the jacket to your body shape and block out the wind.

Environmental Responsibility: Recycled Polyester and PFAS-Free

The EXO Shield 20K membrane is made from recycled polyester, and all components of the jacket are produced without PFAS chemicals. This approach reduces the product’s environmental footprint without compromising its technical performance; the DWR finish is formulated to meet these requirements while maintaining its water-repellent effectiveness.

Whether you’re tackling run after run in freezing temperatures or facing changing conditions at high altitudes, the Spyder Chambers Jacket provides reliable protection, controlled warmth, and thoughtful features designed to ensure nothing is left to chance on the slopes.
