Fleeces

Explore our range of ski clothing all our ski fleece jackets and mid-layers to keep you warm on the slopes in cold weather.

A ski fleece for excellent comfort!

CimAlp’s range of ski mid-layers includes ski fleeces, fleece tops, warm zip-up jackets and fleece gilets. Each one is designed to provide consistent warmth on the slopes without restricting your movement.

A ski fleece jacket combines comfort, thermal protection and practicality. At higher altitudes and in very cold weather, a warm fleece jacket is a reliable companion for winter sports.

How do you choose a fleece jacket for skiing?

Unfortunately, you can’t predict the weather for your ski holiday. You often need to prepare for a range of conditions. If you feel the cold or temperatures are low, you don’t want that to stop you enjoying the slopes.

Follow our advice to choose a good ski fleece jacket:

Choose stretch fabrics: skiing can be intense, depending on how you ski, so a comfortable, flexible fabric is a real advantage in a ski fleece jacket
A packable ski fleece: easy to take off and stow in your ski backpack when the sun comes out or you pick up the pace
Adapt your layers to your kit: if you ski in a warm a thermal base layer this will keep you warmer than skiing in a waterproof jacket

What are the benefits of ski mid-layers?

The insulating or mid-layer is there to keep you warm. It also takes up moisture released by the first layer, so it needs to be breathable. This insulating layer should trap air around your body to retain the heat you naturally produce. You can choose synthetic insulation such as fleece, which retains its insulating properties even when damp. It’s also breathable and dries quickly. Alternatively, you can opt for down, with an insulated jacket that’s thin yet provides exceptional warmth, especially when you’re standing still.

What can you wear as a mid-layer for skiing?

Here are the two main types of mid-layer used for skiing:

The fleece

Fleece jackets and tops are popular ski mid-layers. Fleece is soft, warm and lightweight, with good thermal insulation. It retains body heat and wicks away moisture to keep you warm and dry while you’re active.

The insulated jacket

These jackets are padded with down or synthetic insulation. They provide excellent thermal insulation and are ideal for very cold days on the slopes. Lightweight and compressible, they deliver warmth without bulk.

How do you choose the right mid-layer weight?

When temperatures are mild, or if you tend to get hot while skiing, a lightweight fleece mid-layer is a good option. If you tend to feel the cold or face freezing conditions, choose an insulated jacket instead.

Follow this advice to find a ski fleece jacket that keeps you warm on the slopes, even in cold weather!
