Men's Ski Jacket NORTHFINDER RYAN BLUE/BLACK

Men's insulated ski jacket NORTHFINDER RYAN BLUE/BLACK – waterproof and windproof ski jacket with a 2-layer membrane 10,000 mm, breathability 10,000 g/m²/24 h, synthetic thermal insulation, removable 3D hood, snow skirt, underarm ventilation, and high-quality YKK® zippers for all-day skiing in winter conditions

Men's ski jacket NORTHFINDER RYAN BLUE/BLACK is a high-quality, warm, and functional men's ski jacket from the renowned sports brand NORTHFINDER, designed for skiers seeking an optimal combination of protection from snow, wind, and moisture, comfortable warmth, and practical technical solutions for all-day skiing.

The RYAN model is an insulated ski jacket aimed primarily at regular recreational skiing in various winter weather conditions.

Its main advantage is a well-thought-out combination of double-layer membrane construction, synthetic thermal insulation, water-repellent surface treatment without PFC, and functional ski features.

The jacket is made of double-layer technical material with a membrane, providing water column 10,000 mm and breathability 10,000 g/m²/24 h.

Such a combination ensures effective protection from snow, wind, and moisture, and helps to wick away excess body moisture during active movement.

Water column 10,000 mm is an important protective feature of the jacket, indicating the material's resistance to water penetration.

This is particularly important in skiing where clothing is often exposed to snow, moisture, wind, and variable weather conditions.

Breathability 10,000 g/m²/24 h allows water vapor to pass through the membrane material and contributes to a more comfortable feel during physical activity.

When skiing, the body heats up, so it is important that the jacket, in addition to protecting against external factors, enables effective regulation of internal moisture.

For additional thermal comfort, there is synthetic thermal insulation that helps maintain pleasant warmth during skiing in colder winter conditions.

This insulation is especially useful during chairlift rides, breaks on the slope, and other moments when activity level is lower.

One of the model’s key advantages is the PFC-free water-repellent finish, which helps prevent rapid water absorption into the outer surface of the material.

The water-repellent finish contributes to protection from snow and moisture and complements the membrane's performance.

The NORTHFINDER RYAN BLUE/BLACK model also has vent openings with zippers under the arms, allowing additional regulation of body temperature.

During more intensive skiing you can open the vent zippers to facilitate more efficient heat removal.

This is especially important on warmer winter days or during more dynamic skiing.

An important functional feature is the removable 3D hood, which allows adapting head and neck protection to current weather conditions.

The hood provides additional coverage in windy or snowy weather and can be removed if desired.

The jacket also features a snow skirt to help prevent snow from entering under the jacket.

This construction is particularly useful when skiing in deeper snow, during falls, or during more vigorous movement on the slopes.

Additional comfort is provided by adjustable sleeve cuffs with stretch inner cuffs and thumb holes, helping keep sleeves in place and reducing the possibility of cold air entering.

A notable feature of the model is also high-quality YKK® zippers, ensuring reliable and practical use.

The jacket has a Regular Fit – classic/regular cut, allowing comfortable fit and enough room for appropriate base and insulating layers.

Because of this design, it is suitable for skiers who want a functional ski jacket without an overly tight fit.

The BLUE/BLACK colorway combines blue and black, creating a striking, modern, and dynamic athletic look.

The blue color emphasizes the jacket's sporty character, while black elements create contrast and allow easy pairing with various ski pants, gloves, helmets, and other winter accessories.

The model is part of the NORTHFINDER PATH Flow™ series, which combines functional design and practical features for skiing.

Men's ski jacket NORTHFINDER RYAN BLUE/BLACK is an excellent choice for anyone seeking a warm, waterproof, and windproof men's ski jacket with a 10,000 mm membrane, 10,000 g/m²/24 h breathability, synthetic insulation, underarm ventilation, removable hood, snow skirt, and high-quality YKK® zippers, suitable for recreational skiing and all-day use on the slopes.

Water column 10,000 mm – reliable protection from snow and moisture

One of the most important technical properties of the NORTHFINDER RYAN BLUE/BLACK model is the water column of 10,000 mm.

The water column indicates the material's resistance to water penetration under a given pressure.

Higher value typically means greater resistance to water.

The RYAN model lists 10,000 mm, which is suitable for typical winter conditions on the slopes.

Advantages of a 10,000 mm water column

• Protection from snow.

• Moisture resistance.

• Functionality in winter conditions.

• Functional membrane construction.

• Versatile winter use.

Water column 10,000 mm represents a key advantage of the RYAN model, providing effective protection against common snowy and damp conditions.

Note: The water column is a property of the membrane material. Overall jacket protection also depends on seam construction, closures, and how the garment is used.

Breathability 10,000 g/m²/24 h – effective moisture management

The second key technical property of the model NORTHFINDER RYAN BLUE/BLACK is breathability 10,000 g/m²/24 h.

Breathability indicates the material's ability to allow water vapor to pass from the inside of the garment to the outside environment.

This is especially important in skiing, as the body heats up during activity and produces moisture.

Advantages of breathability

• More efficient moisture removal.

• More comfortable feel while skiing.

• Supports regulating internal moisture.

• Functionality during intense movement.

• Comfort during all-day use.

• Enhancement of underarm ventilation.

How to choose the correct size?

For correct size selection, measure the following body circumferences:

1. Chest: Measure the widest part of the chest.

3. Hips: Measure the widest part of the hips.

4. The measuring tape should be horizontal and not too tight.

5. Compare measurements with NORTHFINDER’s official size chart.

Proper fit

The jacket has Regular Fit – classic cut, so it must allow comfortable movement and enough space for appropriate undershirts and insulating layers.

When choosing size, note that ski jackets are usually worn over functional base layer and a mid insulating layer.

Important: The jacket should not excessively restrict arm and shoulder movement, nor be too loose.

Proper use and layering

For optimal functionality we recommend:

• Wear the jacket as the outer protective layer.

• Under it, use a high-quality functional base layer.

• In colder conditions, add a suitable middle insulating layer.

• During more intensive skiing, open the ventilation zippers as needed.

• Place the snow skirt properly around the body.

• Adjust sleeve ends according to gloves used.

• Adapt the hood to weather conditions.

• Use the thumb-hole openings if needed.

• Consider temperature, wind, and activity intensity.

• Choose the correct size.

• Follow the manufacturer’s instructions.

Proper multilayer clothing helps maintain thermal comfort and effective moisture management during skiing.

• Do not use harsh bleaches.

• Avoid vigorous rubbing.

• Dry according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

• Avoid direct heat sources.

• If needed, refresh the water-repellent surface with a suitable product.

• Let the jacket dry completely before storage.

• Store in a dry and ventilated area.

Important: Proper maintenance helps preserve membrane performance, water-repellent treatment, and warmth.
