Wanted a colour other than black and was more feminine. My husband got the same coat last year and loved the athletic fit and quality. Fit time I skied in HH yet the fit is designed for women while offering several technical features you would only find in other brands $1k +. Great value and style for the price.

Great looking insulated ski jacket - material feels really nice and durable. Helped staying warm on the mountain.Sizing wise runs quite small and is definitely on the athletic fit side. Partner purchased Size S and she's 165cm/48kg and can pretty much only fit a thermal inside "comfortably".Overall, really great jacket if you are after an athletic fit outer layer with insulation inside.

The weight of this coat is just what I wanted. It's an insulated jacket not just a shell. It isn't too heavy but heavy enough for a winter jacket! I ordered a 12 to give me plenty of room. I'm 5'7" and 150 lbs with broad shoulders. I wear a medium in my tops. The sleeves fit very nicely as for the length as well as the way they are fitted to your underarms. The fit it slim with a little down swoop in the back which I find more flattering for women. It isn't a long jacket but longer than some of the standard ski coats. Quality seems very good. Happy with purchase.

I have skied in the same jacket for 24 seasons. Other than being out of style, it was sill in good condition so year after year I talked myself out of purchasing another. I finally decided it was time for a new one. I spent days going from store to store, trying on jackets from all the best in big name skiwear. Honestly, this jacket was the most expensive so I kept talking myself out of it even though it was my favorite. I finally realized that if I keep this jacket for another 24 seasons, it will be worth it so I made the purchase. I can tell you that I have never felt so warm on the slopes. I skied today in white out conditions and 35 mph winds, "feels like 4 degrees." I was not cold AT ALL! I love that the hood comes up over my helmet and I can zip up so that no ... MoreI have skied in the same jacket for 24 seasons.

I skied today in white out conditions and 35 mph winds, "feels like 4 degrees." I was not cold AT ALL! I love that the hood comes up over my helmet and I can zip up so that no part of my body is exposed.I am 5'8" and weigh 140. I generally wear a M. I decided to size up in this jacket to a L. I am glad that I did. While I don't think a M would have been to small, I like having more room to move and layer up, should I feel the need. I can't imagine I will since I wore a base layer with a fleece and did not need anything else. In warmer conditions I will likely wear just a base layer. If you are thinking about this jacket, DO IT! You will be so happy that you did.
Fit, form, and function: this was perfect on the slopes in January.I'm 5'7", 130 lbs, with extremely long arms, narrow waist, broad shoulders, and a B-Cup bra. The Small fit perfectly, and I wear 3 thin but warm and stretchy layers underneath: cami, turtleneck, and thin Helly Hansen hoodie or 1/4 zip. Could have fit another thin layer but would have been way too warm.The waterproofing kept me dry when it was sleeting on the slopes in the Catskills. I run very cold, and thought it would be too light to be warm enough, but it was great at 20* F + wind.Looking forward to eventually using the powder skirt!Zippers are all strong and in all the right places, and everything is typical Helly Hansen super high quality. Love the jade color, too. Just perfect
Fit, form, and function--this is perfect for me on the slopes, whether it's nippy and 10 degrees F or warmer and sunny.I'm 5'7" and 130 lbs with extremely long arms, narrow waist, broad shoulders, and a B-Cup bra size. The Small fits perfectly and I wear 3 thin but warm and stretchy layers underneath: cami, turtleneck, and thin Helly Hansen hoodie or 1/4 zip.It seems like it would be too light to be warm enough, but it's not-- so toasty.And the waterproofing kept me dry when it started sleeting as we skied the Catskills.Equally good on sunny days.There are pockets in all the right places and I can't wait to use the powder skirt eventually.Zippers are strong, everything is typical super high Helly Hansen quantity. Love the jade color. Perfect!
Love this jacket! Color is beautiful blue. Fits true to size I am 5ft 2 and 112 lbs size small is perfect. Sleeve length and hip length are perfect. It has all the features you want for skiing and can add mid layers if it's very cold. HH always has the quality you expect, can't wait to try it this winter!
The Helly Hansen sizing is so variable by jacket, it would help if the measurements were posted (shoulder to shoulder, hip to hip and length down the zipper). I ordered three different HH jackets online (all the same size, XS) and the ones that say "slim fit" are bulky and wide in the shoulders and waist. This one says "regular fit" and it is MUCH more form fitting than the Avanti Insulated or the Motionista. I'm grateful for Evo's awesome return policy because I would advise everyone to just order several sizes/styles and try them all on.
5'4 1/2", 120lb, perfect fit even with bib and base layer. Felt like I was wearing nothing whether walking through town or at 13k feet in a snowstorm. Meaning I wasn't cold or hot, simply perfect. When the sun was out, 20s-30s, arm vents worked. Great arm range of motion. I am proportional for my height and the jacket hit right at my hip bone and top of butt. I wear bibs so I can't speak to how it works with pants, there's a powder skirt though. I'm never 100% happy with any gear, there's always something I see to improve, but not with this jacket. HH is the best quality in comfort, insulation and being completely waterproof. This is my first season of wear, so we will see how it holds up, the seams and zippers are flawless. I took off the hood, but it would have ... More5'4 1/2", 120lb, perfect fit even with bib and base layer. Felt like I was wearing nothing whether walking through town or at 13k feet in a snowstorm.

HH customer for life, holy cow.Oh and just for a crazy story, I don't live near an evo store, so I bought 2k worth of jackets, bibs and pants (on sale, so everything was worth about 4k-6k). I wanted to try on as much as possible, as if I was in the store. I need to know my money is spent on exactly what I want and need. Tried Obermeyer, Burton, Volcom, Roxy, Spyder, maybe some others. I found something lacking in everything and ended up sending everything back except this Helly Alphelia Lifaloft jacket and the Helly legendary insulated bibs. Almost kept another jacket, I believe it was a Volcom Sarah jacket. I might buy that in the future if I want a shell but honestly I'd probably still end up with a HH there too. My next purchase will be some slim fit lower insulation pants because the HH insulation is that good.I'm stoked on this purchase if you can't tell.
I've sold so many Alphelia jackets that I had to try one myself after hearing such great feedback from customers. As soon as you put it on, it feels so soft and plush that you know it's a super nice jacket. I love how comfortable it is and how classy it looks. It does run on the smaller/more slim side, so if you are in between sizes or you want to layer additionally on the coldest days, size up. My favorite two features are the detachable hood and the plush mesh ventilation in the interior back of the jacket. This jacket is awesome and I definitely recommend it if you want to be warm, dry and look great at the resort or anywhere you go this winter.
