The Ava Alpine Ski Jacket from Columbia was made for the women who crave some fresh air and love a good ski run or a snowball fight all the same. The 10k/10k Omni-Tech Rebound shell is waterproof and breathable and has critically sealed seams to prevent snow and ice from soaking in through high flex points for a totally dry day, no matter how hard it's dumping. Two-way comfort stretch means less restriction and Columbia knows that any tree shredding will need full range of motion so you don't get slowed down. Columbia's Omni-Heat Thermal Reflective Lining is well-known and will actually trap and retain the body's heat for all-day warmth. Storage options include a ski pass pocket, interior security pocket, goggle pocket, zippered chest pocket, and two zippered hand pockets, so there's no way any needed accessories can get away from you. Complete with an adjustable hood with removable faux fur, the Ava Alpine jacket is not only functional, but fashionable as well.
