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.

- HIPE® 2L membrane, 10,000 mm, seams sealed
- 75D 2-way stretch, recycled polyester face
- Reinforced palm and thumb in soft PU leather
- Elastic wrist only: no gauntlet cuff, no leash
- 10,000 mm is mid-level, not for all-day rain
- No touch-screen fingertips
The Peak Performance Unite HIPE® 2L Insulated Shell Glove is a unisex waterproof ski glove built around a two-layer HIPE® membrane rated 10,000 mm water column and 10,000 g/m²/24h, with all seams sealed. Synthetic sheet insulation and a polyester lining sit behind a 2-way stretch shell, so the glove keeps a slim, close feel on the hand instead of bulking out. It is a short-cuff, all-round glove with an elastic wrist, not a long gauntlet model.
Who is this glove for?
It fits the skier who wants one waterproof, insulated glove for lift-served resort days, off-piste laps and general winter use, with enough hand movement left for poles, buckles and zippers. It is the wrong choice if you need a long gauntlet cuff pulled over the jacket sleeve, a wrist leash, or touch-screen fingertips, and it is not built for standing still for hours in deep cold.
How waterproof and breathable is the Unite HIPE® 2L Insulated Shell Glove?
The HIPE® membrane in the Peak Performance Unite glove is a 100% thermoplastic polyurethane film rated 10,000 mm / 10,000 g/m²/24h, and the seams are sealed so water cannot enter at the stitching. That is solid mid-level protection: it handles snow, slush contact and showers through a ski day, while the full membrane also blocks wind. For many hours of heavy wet snow or rain, a 20,000 mm glove gives more margin.
Which glove size should you choose?
Sizes run from 6 to 12 in whole numbers, with availability varying by colour: Black covers 6-12, Pine Needle 6-11 and Blue Shadow 8-11. The cut is ergonomic with hand-mapped panels and an elastic wrist. Because this is a self-contained insulated glove rather than an outer shell worn over a liner, take the glove size you normally wear instead of sizing up.
How is the Peak Performance Unite HIPE® 2L Insulated Shell Glove constructed?
Peak Performance uses its own HIPE® membrane here, a film of 100% thermoplastic polyurethane bonded to the shell in a two-layer construction and rated 10,000 mm / 10,000 g/m²/24h. The main shell panel is a 75D midweight fabric with a 100% recycled polyester face and 2-way stretch, which is what lets the glove follow the hand when you grip a pole or a lift bar. A second shell panel carries a 100% polyurethane face. All seams are sealed. Behind the membrane sits synthetic sheet insulation of 100% polyester with a 100% polyester lining, so the layers stay thin and even across the back of the hand and the fingers.
Is the Unite glove suitable for resort skiing, touring and off-piste?
The Unite HIPE® 2L Insulated Shell Glove is positioned as a multifunctional glove: resort skiing first, then freeride and off-piste laps, ski touring and other higher-output winter days, and plain everyday winter wear. The stretch shell and ergonomic panel layout keep enough dexterity for skins, straps and goggles, and the 10,000 g/m²/24h membrane moves moisture out when the pace rises. Where it stops is the cold, static end of the scale: the insulation is a synthetic sheet rather than a heavy loft, so this is a glove for moving, not for long waits at the lift in deep cold. The elastic wrist and zippered opening close under a jacket cuff, so riders who want a gauntlet over the sleeve should look at a different model.
What materials does it use and how do you care for them?
The palm and thumb of the Peak Performance Unite glove are reinforced and faced in soft PU leather, which grips well and stays supple in the cold; natural leather still has the edge on long-term abrasion. Construction is fully synthetic: recycled polyester face, thermoplastic polyurethane membrane, polyester filling and polyester lining. Machine wash at 40 °C with similar colours, close the zippers first and skip fabric softener, which clogs the membrane. Tumble dry on low or line dry, take the gloves out promptly after washing, and do not bleach, iron, dry clean or professional wet clean them.
What makes this glove more sustainable?
The Unite HIPE® 2L Insulated Shell Glove is made without intentionally added PFAS, and the face fabric of the main shell panel is 100% recycled polyester.
