The Best Ski Jackets and Pants for 2026
Oct 1, 2025
Outdoor Research
Built to combat wet and wild winter conditions, the Hemispheres jacket and bib rock the new Bluesign-approved, three-layer Gore-Tex material to keep you dry while providing great breathability.
The fit is true to size but if you’re more into the relaxed style we’re seeing on the slopes these days, sizing up would help achieve that look while also creating more room for puffy layers on those frigid days. The jacket features one external zippered chest pocket, two hand pockets and an internal chest pocket, as well as a mesh stash pocket for skins or a spare pair of goggles. The bib offers even more pocket space, including a dedicated beacon clip in the right thigh pocket, and a highly articulated fit that gives the user ultimate range of movement. Two-way pit vents on the jacket and outer thigh vents on the bib dump heat efficiently, and a swing hatch on the seat of the bib make bathroom breaks a breeze.Â
