About Scott Jacket W's Ultimate GTX – Men's Ski Jackets
The Scott Jacket W´s Ultimate GTX is designed for riders who want both warmth and weather protection during long days on the slopes. With durable GORE-TEX 2L material, you get complete waterproof protection, while the jacket breathes well and keeps you comfortable even during intense rides. Thanks to the DUROloft ECO insulation, you can also enjoy a consistent and comfortable temperature, regardless of the weather.
The insulation is strategically placed using Strategic Thermal Regulation, meaning 100g over the body and 80g in the sleeves. This provides extra warmth where it's needed most and more freedom of movement where required, giving you both warmth and flexibility in one garment.
To make things even easier, the jacket is packed with practical details. Underarm ventilation zippers make it easy to regulate temperature. The hood is adjustable and helmet-compatible, perfect for windy days. Additionally, you get plenty of storage with a chest pocket, hand pockets, a ski pass pocket, and several internal pockets, including a goggle pocket with a cleaning cloth and a secure zippered pocket.
For extra comfort, the jacket features soft inner cuffs with thumbholes, a powder skirt to keep snow out, and a chin guard to prevent chafing. For added safety, an integrated RECCO reflector makes you searchable in an emergency.
Finally, the jacket is made from recycled materials and features PFC-free water repellency. This provides reliable protection that is also more sustainable for the environment.

Size & fit
Measure your chest at its widest point and compare with the size chart in the size guide. If you are between two sizes, go for the smaller one if you want a snugger fit, or the larger one if you want room for more layers underneath. Not sure? Give us a call and we will help you.
Care
Wash at 30° with a liquid detergent for technical garments — never use fabric softener or bleach. Tumble dry on low heat or iron at a low temperature to reactivate the water-repellent treatment. Reproof when water stops beading on the surface, usually after 15–20 washes.
Shipping & returns
Delivery time 2–5 business days to Germany, shipped from our warehouse in Hestra, Sweden. Call +46 370 33 97 70 if you are unsure about the size before you order.

Choosing a shell jacket
Waterproofing and breathability
Waterproofing is measured in millimetres (hydrostatic head) and describes how much water pressure the fabric can withstand before it leaks. 10,000 mm handles normal precipitation, while 20,000 mm handles wet snow and rain all day long — even where you sit and press against the fabric on the chairlift. Breathability is measured in grams of moisture per square metre per 24 hours and determines how much sweat is transported out. You want high numbers for both; a waterproof fabric without breathability will just make you wet from the inside instead.
The layering principle
The shell is the outer layer and is not meant to be warm in itself. The warmth comes from the mid-layer — merino wool or fleece — and closest to the skin is a thin layer that moves moisture away from your body. The advantage of a pure shell over a padded jacket is that you can regulate your warmth to suit the weather and your pace, instead of being locked into one level of insulation. That is why the shell is cut with room for a mid-layer, and why it can feel roomy when you try it on without one.
The details that make the difference
A powder skirt at the waist keeps snow out when you fall. Underarm vents are the quickest way to regulate your temperature without taking anything off. The hood should be adjustable with one hand and fit over a helmet without blocking your view. Taped seams are essential, because a waterproof fabric will leak through the seams if they are not sealed. The pockets should be placed so they work with a hip belt on and a lift pass in the sleeve.
Size and fit
The jacket is cut with room for insulation. If you are between two sizes and ski without a thick mid-layer, go for the smaller one. If you want room for a thicker sweater, or do a lot of ski touring where you need freedom of movement, go for the larger one. The sleeves should reach past your wrists when you stretch your arms forward.
How to keep your jacket waterproof
A shell rarely stops being waterproof — it stops repelling water on the surface. When the fabric turns dark and heavy with moisture, it is the outer water-repellent treatment that has worn off, not the membrane. Wash the jacket with a detergent made for shell garments, tumble dry it on low heat or iron it with a cloth in between to reactivate the treatment, and reproof when needed. A jacket that is looked after stays waterproof season after season.
