Peak Performance Anima Insulated Ski Jacket in Black

The Peak Performance Anima Jacket in Black is made from waterproof, windproof stretchy HIPE fabric with a PFC-free DWR finish, fully seam sealed for genuine protection in demanding mountain conditions.

Insulation keeps you warm without bulk, while two-way stretch and an articulated, athletic cut allow proper freedom of movement on the mountain. The detachable hood is helmet compatible and adjustable for height and width, and a fixed snow skirt with a snap-in ski pant system keeps snow out entirely. Zipped hand pockets, a ski pass pocket at the sleeve, an inner mesh stash pocket, and a goggle wiper in the chest pocket cover every practical need without adding clutter. Elastic wrist gaiters and velcro sleeve adjusters seal cuffs against wind and cold.

Winternational stocks the Peak Performance Anima Ski Jacket for women who want a genuinely technical ski jacket, waterproof, breathable and built for real skiing, in a clean, wearable black.

FAQs

Is the Peak Performance Anima jacket waterproof?
Yes. It’s made from Peak Performance’s HIPE fabric with a 10,000 mm waterproof rating, and every seam is sealed so water can’t get in through the stitching. A PFC-free DWR finish makes snow and rain bead up and roll off the surface.

What does 10k/10k mean on a ski jacket?
The first number is waterproofing: the fabric resists 10,000 mm of water pressure. The second is breathability: 10,000 g of moisture vapour can escape per square metre over 24 hours. A 10k/10k jacket handles resort skiing well, keeping you dry in snow and showers while letting sweat out on active days.

What is HIPE fabric?
HIPE is Peak Performance’s own waterproof, breathable and windproof technology. On the Anima, it’s used in a stretch fabric, so you get protection from the weather and freedom to move.

Is the Anima warm enough for skiing in January?
The Anima is an insulated ski jacket, so it has warmth built in without the bulk of a down jacket. On the coldest days, wear it over a thermal base layer and a mid layer. When it warms up, open the underarm vents.

What’s the difference between the Anima and the Peak Performance Glissade?
The Anima is a waterproof, insulated stretch shell with an athletic cut. It’s made for active skiing and moves with you. The Glissade is a down-filled ski jacket with a slim fit, so it’s warmer and puffier, better for colder skiers and very cold resorts. If you run warm or ski hard, choose the Anima. If you feel the cold, choose the Glissade.

Does the Anima have a snow skirt?
Yes. It has a fixed snow skirt that stops snow getting up your back when you fall or ski powder. It also has a snap-in system to attach the jacket to compatible ski trousers.

Is the hood helmet compatible?
Yes. The hood fits over a ski helmet and adjusts for height and width. It also detaches, so you can take it off on fine days or wear the jacket hood-free around town.

How does the Anima fit?
It has an athletic, articulated cut with two way stretch, so it’s close fitting but lets you move freely. Check the Peak Performance size guide. If you want to layer a thick mid layer underneath, consider your usual size or one up.
