Men's Ski Jacket ELAN AREH PETROL

Men's Ski Jacket ELAN AREH PETROL – waterproof 20,000 mm, breathability 20,000 g/m²/24 h, recycled insulation and top protection on the slopes

Men's ski jacket ELAN AREH PETROL is a high-quality technical ski jacket designed for skiers who seek excellent protection against snow, wind and moisture, and a high level of comfort during full-day skiing. It combines advanced 20K/20K membrane, two-layer construction, recycled synthetic insulation and numerous functional extras, which ensure reliable performance in various winter conditions.

The model ELAN SKI JACKET AREH PETROL, with article code PTSK0324, is an excellent choice for recreational and more demanding skiers who want a functional, comfortable and contemporary men's ski jacket.

The main advantage of the jacket is two-layer polyester construction with a polyurethane membrane (PU), which provides water column 20,000 mm and breathability 20,000 g/m²/24 h.

Such a combination offers very high resistance to water entry and effective water vapor management, which is especially important when skiing in snow, wet snow and variable weather conditions.

Water column 20,000 mm provides very good protection against winter precipitation, while breathability 20,000 g/m²/24 h helps reduce moisture buildup inside the jacket during physical activity.

For additional protection, sealed seams and water-repellent zippers help minimize water intrusion through seam connections and closures.

The outer material is made of 100% polyester with a stated weight of 125 g, which provides a good balance between durability, functionality and comfort.

For pleasant warmth, synthetic insulation made from 100% recycled polyester is distributed according to body zones:

• 80 g/m² insulation on the torso, where heat retention is especially important.

• 60 g/m² insulation on the sleeves and hood, which provides a good balance between warmth and freedom of movement.

The manufacturer labels the insulation level as Medium Warmth, so the jacket is suitable for active skiers who want comfort and the possibility to adjust warmth with additional layers.

In colder conditions you can pair it with functional thermo underwear and a fleece jacket, while in milder weather a thinner base layer is sufficient.

An important functional advantage is venting zipper under the arms, which allows for additional air circulation and helps regulate body temperature during more intensive skiing.

When body temperature rises, you can open the vent to improve heat dissipation.

The jacket has two-way adjustable hood compatible with ski helmet, allowing for individual adjustment and extra protection of head and neck from wind, snow and cold.

To protect against snow ingress under the jacket is built-in inner snow gaiter, especially useful when skiing in deeper snow and during falls.

A practical pocket for ski pass on the sleeve provides easy access to lift passes without rummaging for the ticket.

The jacket also has a water-repellent surface treatment, which helps reduce water absorption into the outer fabric.

Recycled fibers are used in the construction, and the fabric is claimed to be PFC-free.

Because of the standard cut (Regular Fit) the jacket provides a comfortable fit and enough room for functional thermal underwear and an additional insulation layer.

A distinctive feature of the model is its attractive petrol color, which combines sporty elegance with the modern design of ski apparel.

The Petrol color pairs well with black, dark blue and other ski pants.

Thanks to the combination of high water resistance, excellent breathability, recycled insulation and practical functional extras, ELAN AREH PETROL is an excellent choice for all-day skiing on well-groomed slopes and active winter holidays.

If you are looking for a men's ski jacket with 20K/20K membrane, recycled insulation, underarm ventilation, taped seams, water-repellent zippers and helmet-compatible hood, ELAN AREH PETROL is an excellent choice for demanding ski days.
