More informationWhat Is an Insulated Ski Jacket and What Are the Options?
An insulated ski jacket is essential for anyone seeking warmth and comfort while skiing or snowboarding. The insulation helps maintain your body temperature, even in the harshest conditions. There are different types of insulation, each with its own advantages. In this guide, we explain the differences so you can make the perfect choice.
Down Insulation: Lightweight and Extremely Warm
A jacket insulated with down is the ideal choice for those looking for maximum warmth without sacrificing comfort. Down provides excellent insulation and is very lightweight, making it perfect for cold, dry conditions. However, keep in mind that down performs less well in wet conditions unless the jacket has been specially treated to resist moisture.
Wool Insulation: Natural and Breathable
Jackets with wool insulation offer a natural alternative. Wool is not only warm but also breathable and retains heat even when damp. This option is ideal for those who prefer natural materials and comfort in varying weather conditions.
Synthetic Insulation: Versatile and Low-Maintenance
Synthetic insulation, such as PrimaLoft or Thinsulate, offers excellent warmth and performs well in wet conditions. This option is often slightly heavier than down but dries quickly and is easier to care for. It’s ideal for active winter sports enthusiasts who value versatility and affordability.
Why Choose an Insulated Ski Jacket?
-
Optimal Warmth: Protect yourself against extreme cold.
-
Comfort During Activity: Maintain your freedom of movement without sacrificing insulation.
-
Suitable for Various Weather Conditions: Whether you're skiing in powder snow or braving a cold wind, an insulated jacket adapts to your needs.
Which Insulation Suits You Best?
The right insulation depends on your personal preferences and the conditions in which you’ll wear the jacket. Looking for ultimate warmth and comfort? Go for down. Need a versatile, low-maintenance option? Consider synthetic materials. Or choose wool for a natural feel.

- 60 g/m2 Coreloft Compact, 335 grams in size M
- Fleece side panels vent heat on the climb
- PFAS-free DWR, Fair Trade Certified sewing
- No membrane: DWR only, not for sustained rain
- Air-permeable face fabric, limited wind cover
- Fitted cut: no room over a thick fleece
The Arc'teryx Atom Jacket is a men's synthetic-insulated mid layer with 60 g/m2 Coreloft Compact through the body and no hood. It is built for high-output movement in cool conditions: stretch fleece side panels and an air-permeable Tyono 20 face fabric let heat and moisture escape while you keep moving. At 335 grams in size M it compresses small and sits under a hardshell without bulk.
Who is the Atom Jacket for?
The Arc'teryx Atom Jacket suits a mountain user who runs warm and wants one light insulated layer for hiking, climbing, ski touring and resort days under a shell. It is not the jacket for sustained rain or wet snow as an outer layer, because there is no membrane, only a water-repellent finish on the face fabric. It is also not a standing-around jacket in deep cold, and anyone who wants a hood should take the hooded version of the Atom instead.
How warm is the Atom Jacket?
Warmth in the Arc'teryx Atom Jacket comes from 60 g/m2 Coreloft Compact synthetic insulation through the body, with uninsulated stretch fleece panels of 215 g/m2 down the sides. That is an active level of warmth: enough on its own for cool hikes and crag days, and well judged as a mid layer under a ski shell in winter. The Tyono 20 shell (20Dx20D nylon ripstop, 45 g/m2) is deliberately air permeable, so it handles a light shower but does not block wind the way a hardshell does.
Which size should you choose?
The Arc'teryx Atom Jacket has a Fitted cut: close through chest, waist and hip, with low bulk so it slides under outerwear. Garment centre back length is 73 cm in size M. It is patterned to go over a base layer, not over a thick fleece, so a heavy midlayer underneath will feel tight. The jacket is sold in S, M, L and XL; measure your chest and compare it with the men's tops size chart before you order.
How is the Arc'teryx Atom Jacket constructed?
The Arc'teryx Atom Jacket combines three fabrics in one light insulated jacket. The face fabric is Tyono 20, a 20Dx20D nylon ripstop at 45 g/m2 with an FC0 DWR finish, chosen for low weight and air permeability. Behind it sits Coreloft Compact 60, a 60 g/m2 polyester insulation, held against a 20D recycled nylon ripstop liner of 40 g/m2. Along both sides run circular knit stretch fleece panels of 215 g/m2 (93% polyester, 7% elastane) that carry no insulation at all, so the warmest parts of the body during exertion stay the most permeable. Articulated patterning, stretch-knit cuffs and a hem draw cord keep the shape under a shell, and the No Slip Zip front zipper runs with custom TPU pulls you can work with gloves on.
Does the Atom Jacket work for ski touring and resort skiing?
As a mid layer the Arc'teryx Atom Jacket does exactly what a touring or resort day asks of it: 60 g/m2 of synthetic fill with almost no loft to compress, fleece side panels that dump heat on the climb, and a slim profile that does not fight a hardshell at the shoulders. Two zipped hand pockets and an internal zipped chest pocket stay reachable with a harness or pack on. Where it stops is clear. No hood, no powder skirt and no ski-specific hardware are part of this jacket, and the air-permeable face fabric means wind and wet snow are the shell's job, not the Atom's. On an exposed lift in cold, windy weather you will want a layer over it.
What are the materials and how do you wash it?
Everything in the Arc'teryx Atom Jacket is synthetic: 100% nylon shell and lining, 100% polyester Coreloft insulation, and a polyester-elastane fleece panel. The fabric is made and dyed in Japan and the jacket is sewn in Bangladesh. Because the face fabric is a 20D ripstop at 45 g/m2, it is built for weight and breathability rather than abrasion, so treat rock contact and loaded pack straps with care. Machine wash gentle at a low temperature, keep dark colours separate, skip fabric softener and bleach, double rinse, and tumble dry gentle on low to restore the DWR finish. Do not iron, dry clean or wring the jacket.
What makes the Atom Jacket more sustainable?
The FC0 DWR finish on the shell, lining and contrast fleece of the Arc'teryx Atom Jacket is free from intentionally added PFAS, and the product is listed as PFAS compliant. The insulation, lining and fleece panels are bluepass materials with recycled content, and the jacket contains materials produced through processes that meet bluesign criteria. It is sewn in a Fair Trade Certified facility, YOUNGONE (CEPZ) LTD in Bangladesh. Washing synthetic fabrics can release plastic microfibres, which is one more reason to wash it only when it needs it.
