Swix Steady Jacket Junior

Swix Steady Junior jacket

The Swix Steady Junior Jacket is a high-performance junior cross country ski jacket developed knowing that juniors sometimes are as serious about their sport as any dedicated athlete. The 3L stretch softshell features a windproof membrane in the front and a breathable membrane in the back. The bonding itself provides more wind resistance and higher thermal insulation properties than classic Lycra commonly used in the back stretch panels.

Pair this jacket with the Swix Universal Junior Pant.

Layering is the key to cold weather comfort. Most people understand the idea of layering their clothing for outdoor activity: first, the wicking layer; second, the insulation layer and third the wind and weather layer. The key to making it work for you just takes a little practice. A comment we often hear is that, once out on the trail for 10-15 minutes, people are too hot! What a great problem: to be too hot when you’re outside in the winter! Well, fortunately, it’s never been easier to lighten up your layers.

A recreational skier who skis for fitness will wear less and lighter layers than someone who’s touring. If you’re too hot or too cold, try altering your layers, by wearing thinner or thicker ones, to suit the day’s conditions. You can always remove or add a layer on the trail, if necessary.
