Size Guide

Hood

Snow melt is for the mountain, not your helmet

Storm ready hood.

Other hoods allow snow to melt and drip into your goggles. Our weighted design sheds moisture, keeping your vision clear. The Nivis hood fully encapsulates your helmet, with three individual cords to cinch and tighten, blocking wind and snow. The stiff weighted brim creates a secure seal, and extends forward to prevent snow from melting into your goggles and causing fog.

Hand assembled in the USA

Assembled 20 minutes from NYC’s garment district

This is one of the only ski jackets assembled in the USA from world class materials sourced around the globe. Our partner in Clifton, New Jersey has more than 50 years of experience, and has even crafted opening ceremony apparel for Team USA at the Olympic Games.

Stretch Panels

Mountain ranges demand a full range of motion

Your second skin on the slope

It’s not just the shell of your jacket that needs to move with you, it’s the interior form that needs to follow your body. We’ve developed malleable 4-way interior stretch panels to enable maximum shoulder and back movement.

Discover the features that set our jackets apart.

The YKK Aquaguard zipper is the gold standard when it comes to outerwear zippers that help keep your jacket waterproof. With a waterproof film applied to the reverse side of the zipper chain and a durable water repellent treatment on the front, no snow or water should leak in through the teeth of your zipper, even when it’s pelted by the elements.

Watertight at every turn

ZIPPERS

Your favorite pocket is the one you’ll barely need to open, just insert your RFID ski pass into a clear pass holder inside the left sleeve and tap to access the ski lift with ease.

Your ski pass up you sleeve

SLEEVE PASS POCKET

Originally developed for aerospace applications by NASA, aerogel has the lowest recorded thermal conductivity of any physical material, and we’ve used it to line a single pocket designed to hold your phone and preserve its battery outdoors. Some might consider this overkill, but we consider it lifesaving. And just plain smart.

Your phone is unfazed by the cold

AEROGEL POCKET

Constructed with 4-way stretch, two layer windproof nylon/spandex and coated with PFC-free durable water repellent.

Stretchy and windproofy

FABRIC

Customize your jacket with removable velcro arm patches made to match your vibe on the mountain. Choose from Nivis designs and represent your State or country, or feel free to get your own made and set your squad apart.

Lift conversation starter

PATCHES

You may never really know when an avalanche could trigger, which is why we include RECCO reflectors on every jacket. They’re lightweight passive transponders that require no power or activation, used by emergency rescuers to locate you in an avalanche or other life threatening scenario.

A lifesaving standard

RECCO

Premium cuffs and durable velcro

SLEEVE CUFFS

Regulate your body temperature with dual Aquaguard zipper vents on both sides of the jacket for extra control of your comfort. Whether it’s a warm day or you just need a chilling reminder of the world outside your jacket, precise control is always by your side.

Control your own microclimate
