best Arcteryx jackets for winter sports

What is the best part of winter? Most definitely not the cold. What, then? Well, winter sports, of course. Skiing, snowboarding, mountain climbing and a whole lot of other sports that can be enjoyed during this season.

But in such weather conditions, wearing appropriate clothes is a necessity and sometimes it’s not as easy as it may seem. You don’t want to be cold, but you don’t want to wear too many clothes, either. That’s why jackets were made. Not all jackets are suitable when you’re climbing up a mountain, though, so that’s why sport jackets were made.

For today’s selection we have chosen 11 jackets by Arc’teryx, the Canadian brand that comes with different sports jackets to suit all sports and all needs, despite the weather conditions.

From insulated jackets, to loose fitting ones, Arc’teryx has thought of everything to keep you warm while you wrestle with snow.

Let’s begin!

8 Best Canada Goose Parka Jackets for a Warm Winter

Winter, this year, took it a bit too seriously and some of us, soon realized that the typical jackets were not going to properly handle this season. Going shopping or spending hours online searching to find the best jacket, might not be everyone’s cup of tea. Some people don’t have the time and others dislike the whole process of shopping. But, there is a type of jacket out there that you can’t go wrong with. Parka jackets.

They were firstly used by the Inuit to withstand freezing temperatures and also protect them from snow and water. Typically, parkas come with a filling of feathers and a hood, which traditionally is lined with a layer of natural fur to protect the face and keep it warm.

Canada Goose, the Canadian brand founded in 1957 in Toronto, has an entire collection of parka jackets, to suit every need and preference. There are light ones and a tad heavier jackets, a large array of designs and depending on what you might prefer, some do not come with fur lining on the hood.

Today in this article we’ve selected several, for both men and women, so it will be a bit easier to choose the right one for you and also give you a general idea of what a parka should be like, in order to provide warmth and also be of high quality.

The North Face Thermoball Jacket Review, Men and Women

It is time for another review article. Today we will be reviewing a jacket that comes with a lot of features, and weighs only 330 grams (11.64 oz). It is the The North Face Thermoball Full Zip jacket for men and women.

Much like the previous jacket reviews, in this one we will be breaking down each feature of this product, focusing on material, colors and usage. There will also be the user feedback, a very useful paragraph, which helps in having a better understanding of this jacket and in determining whether it might be a good choice for your necessities.

In general, we can say that this is not a down jacket, despite the quilted design on the outside, which gives it the classic down jacket look.

Instead, it comes in a synthetic insulation called ThermoBall™, created by The North Face in collaboration with PrimaLoft, which, unlike in most jackets, it is distributed and placed differently, therefore giving this jacket its special features.

We have also compared the ThermoBall insulation to real down in this article, if you want to learn more.

Now, let’s head right to the specifics.
