The Highland jacket by Salomon is perfect for skiing and will accompany you faithfully on all your winter adventures. This jacket has everything you need for winter: stretchy, water-resistant, and sweat-wicking fabric with four-way stretch and warm, comfortable insulation.

The jacket features a slim, body-hugging cut that allows for a wide range of motion. It’s made from four-way stretch fabric for unrestricted movement. PrimaLoft® insulation provides warmth and comfort while being soft and compressible. The 3D mesh lining wicks away sweat and keeps the body dry. The fabric, made with AdvancedSkin Dry 10K/10K technology, offers complete windproofing and optimal ventilation. The sleeve closures tighten around the wrist to prevent wind from entering, and thumb loops on the sleeve ends keep hands warm and prevent the sleeves from riding up. Easy-to-open ventilation openings allow for maximum airflow. The jacket’s hem prevents snow from entering, while a drawstring closure tightens the hem to block cold air. The hood is removable and adjustable for a customized fit. Other features include two zippered chest pockets, two spacious hand-warming pockets, a soft mesh inner pocket for goggles, and an inner media pocket with headphone openings for easy access. The jacket is designed with reflective accents. Weight: 850 grams. Fabric composition: 79% polyamide, 21% elastane. Insulation: AdvancedSkin Dry 10K/10K.
