To achieve such a level of quality, the brand designs each Norrøna Ski Jacket using high-quality materials and technologies. Gore-Tex®, Oeko-Tex certified fabric, Bluesign, recycled fibers, body-hugging cuts,..., every feature and composition of a Norrøna Ski Jacket is finely studied. To better understand what makes Norrøna Ski Jackets so iconic, let’s examine in detail the characteristics, materials, and technologies that compose them.

Norrøna Ski Jackets: iconic features and incredible protection against the elements

The brand's reputation in the world of skiing has not come without reason: all Norrøna Ski Jackets are true jewels of performance, thanks to their composition and functionality. Thus, first and foremost, you will find on every Norrøna Ski Jacket a Gore-Tex® membrane, sometimes even Gore-Tex® Pro, perfectly waterproof and highly breathable. You will be protected from external elements, no matter the weather conditions you encounter during your freeride skiing or alpine skiing session, while enjoying incredible moisture management, allowing you to stay dry in your Norrøna Ski Jacket. Beyond the waterproof and breathable quality of your Norrøna Ski Jacket thanks to its extremely effective membrane, the ecological footprint is also an important characteristic that makes all the difference. Indeed, all Norrøna Ski Jackets are made from recycled fibers, generally over 50%, demonstrating the brand's commitment to more responsible production. Furthermore, the fabric of your Norrøna Ski Jacket is systematically (with exceptions) certified Oeko-Tex. This independent global testing and certification system attests that your Norrøna Ski Jacket is produced while respecting certain chemical usage, in accordance with national and international regulations and standards. Your Norrøna Ski Jacket thus respects the environment and at the same time your body, which will not be exposed to excessive chemicals while wearing your Norrøna Ski Jacket. The fabric of your Norrøna Ski Jacket is also certified Bluesign. To obtain this label, the production factory of your Norrøna Ski Jacket is tested and made aware of the use of harmful substances during the manufacturing process, but is also subject to control standards, aiming for sustainable production of each Norrøna Ski Jacket. To go further in the process, each production factory is openly listed on the brand's website, and each Norrøna Ski Jacket is made in a factory inspected by an independent third party. You understand, your Norrøna Ski Jacket is designed with the environmental footprint in mind, a true challenge for the brand. Choosing a Norrøna Ski Jacket is therefore also a way to consume more responsibly. But it is also a way to choose a product of high functionality, a characteristic that makes your Norrøna Ski Jacket so essential in the world of skiing and powder. To start, each Norrøna Ski Jacket is equipped with several pockets, allowing you to carry and keep your essential belongings within reach while protecting them from external elements. Beyond its storage capabilities, a Norrøna Ski Jacket is also generally equipped with a snow skirt and a hood, to enhance your protection against weather conditions and powder. The zipper system, for its part, is waterproof and often two-way, for exceptional practicality. The ventilation system, usually placed at the armpits, enhances the breathability of a Norrøna Ski Jacket and also makes it versatile from one practice to another. Finally, the freedom of movement of a Norrøna Ski Jacket is incredible, allowing you to tackle both particularly steep ski slopes and climb snowy peaks and descend powder-covered slopes. Thus, each Norrøna Ski Jacket is a concentrate of finely studied functionalities, to make your skiing experience ever more enjoyable. Every detail of a Norrøna Ski Jacket is therefore the result of well-conducted research to offer skiers all the protection and functionality they can expect.
