Consumer Reports

The Helly Hansen Alpha LifaLoft is the top-performing all-around resort jacket on the market and has been a favorite of our testers for the last three years. It is warm enough for the coldest days and keeps all kinds of winter weather at bay while remaining extremely comfortable and easy to wear. The cut and fit are exceptional and unmatched in the ski jacket market. It also has a thoughtful array of useful features and a classy style. Plus, it uses synthetic insulation and a proprietary waterproof/breathable membrane to help keep the cost of this jacket relatively approachable.
The Alpha LifaLoft doesn't provide as much warmth as the down-insulated Arc'teryx Macai, nor does it protect from the elements and other jackets that use a Gore-Tex membrane. This isn't necessarily a bad thing. While a super warm jacket is at home only in sub-zero temps, the Helly Hansen performed well in various temperatures and exertion levels and is absolutely winter storm-worthy. The result is a more versatile jacket at nearly half the price. For this applicability to a wide range of conditions and skiers, the Alpha LifaLoft takes the crown.

The Helly Hansen Alpha LifaLoft Jacket is a waterproof breathable ski jacket with synthetic LifaLoft insulation. The HELLY TECH Professional shell fabric provides waterproofing while maintaining breathability, and LifaLoft insulation provides warmth with minimal bulk and weight. A PFC-free DWR treatment helps the face fabric shed snow and water. The detachable powder skirt and helmet-compatible hood provide additional weather protection and versatility. Helly Hansen’s LifaLoft jacket is a great choice for resort skiers and snowboarders who prefer an insulated shell jacket with technical features.
Key Features:
- LifaLoft – LifaLoft synthetic insulation creates more air pockets than standard insulation, so it can insulate while being 20% lighter.
- RECCO – A RECCO reflector can speed up search and rescue efforts in equipped areas.
- PFC-Free DWR Coating – A Durable Water Repellent coating that’s free of perfluorochemicals helps the face fabric shed snow and water without wetting out.
- Articulated Sleeves – Articulated sleeves improve mobility.
- Detachable Hood – The detachable hood is helmet-compatible and can be removed in fair weather.
- Removable Powder Skirt – The removable powder skirt helps hold body heat in and keep snow out.

 This thing is money. I'M talking about the life pocket has insulation right here on the pocket. So when you put your phone in there and your valuables keeps it warm, keeps your phone maybe charged up pretty awesome now wearing this hood, because I wanted to point out the high vis color.

 It'S got all the stretch material. I love the insulation, they go 80 K in the back and I sorry 80 grams in the back and 60 K on the arms which, for me, is just about right. I like about between 60 and a hundred, is all you really need. I kind of think

Helly Hansen Alpha 3.0 Ski Jacket Review By Peter Glenn

 For starters, the outer material is designed with helitech professional fabric technology, which is waterproof and breathable, with fully taped seams for all-day comfort and performance. When the temperatures drop, the 80 grams of leaf aloft insulation will be sure to keep you warm while still remaining lightweight. Also, if you work up a sweat and need to cool down, this jacket has underarm ventilation in terms of flexibility. The alpha leaflet jacket is designed with a four-way stretch fabric and articulated sleeves, to give you unrestricted movement out on the slopes to protect you from the elements

 There is just the right amount of insulation that the Alpha LIFALOFT packs very nicely if you are planning a trip and need to pack a suitcase. Without being bulky in a bag this is a perfect choice for a week-long trip where you don’t want to bring a quiver of jackets but you do want to save space in your suitcase.

 It’s no secret that cold weather will destroy the battery on your phone. Getting to the end of the day on the slopes with a working phone can be an art form. But this specially designed pocket using some space tested thermal materials including Aerogel insulation that will actually keep your phone pocket three times as warm as the other pockets on the jacket. This gives you the ultimate chance of cell phone survival while still letting you have easy access to queue up your jams or snap a selfie

 It doesn’t work by letting you overheat and then puff it all out. The fabric actually breathes like it’s supposed to while not giving the elements much room to find their way in.

Helly Hansen Alpha LIFALOFT - Gear Review | Busted Wallet

I hadn't bought a new ski jacket in a few years. I was looking for something stylish that would also perform. The jacket looks great - the navy blue with the red and white accents is super clean. I'm 5'4", around 150 pounds and wanted something a bit more tailored

 I ordered a small and love the fit. It's loose enough that I can comfortably wear a base and mid layer, but it doesn't feel like I'm swimming in the jacket if I just want to wear a T-shirt. I haven't yet skied in the jacket, but I'm looking forward to testing it out on the slopes.

The North Face ThermoBall ECO Snow Triclimate is the best 3-in-1 ski jacket on the market. The insulated mid-layer and mesh-lined shell layer provide plenty of warmth for cold days on the slopes. Thanks to a full-coverage hood, a waterproof/breathable membrane, waterproof zippers, and sealed seams, it also has excellent weather resistance. Despite its bulk, we found it comfortable to wear and relatively stylish as well. The North Face packs this jacket with useful features like plenty of pockets, a goggle wipe, and a powder skirt. Best of all, its overall performance hangs just below some of our favorite jackets with much higher price tags.
Despite its heavyweight, the Thermoball ECO Snow Triclimate is our recommendation for a frequent skier looking to balance price and performance. The added weight results from the additional features of the 3-in-1 design, like an extra zipper and redundant pockets, a common flaw in this subset of jackets. Otherwise, we love its long and "freeride" cut, clean lines, and easy-going style. We also appreciate its reasonable price tag.

Switchback Travel

For those looking to save, turning to a 3-in-1 ski jacket can be a good option. With a single purchase, you get both a waterproof shell and an insulating midlayer that can be either zipped in on cold days or left at home in spring conditions (you can even wear the insulated jacket on its own around town). Many 3-in-1s are of the budget variety, but we think upgrading to the $360 The North Face ThermoBall Eco Snow is worth the investment. The jacket has a nice fit, offers decent exterior storage, and includes upgrades like pit zips and exposed, water-resistant zippers. Its standout feature, however, is the ThermoBall zip-out jacket, which we've found does a pretty good impression of a lofty down piece—all while continuing to insulate when wet.

If you’re set on the 3-in-1 design, the ThermoBall Snow Triclimate is our favorite option on the market, but we typically prefer the versatility of separating our jackets and midlayers. The extra zippers and heft that come with this kind of outer layer make them not as comfortable and they provide less freedom of movement. Further, 3-in-1s are more prone to feeling drafty, plus the connected midlayer limits access to your interior pockets. That said, the ThermoBall Snow Triclimate provides two well-built jackets with relatively few compromises, making it a solid value for resort skiers.See the Men's TNF ThermoBall Triclimate  See the Women's TNF ThermoBall Triclimate

If you’re putting together your kit from scratch or looking to save some money, a 3-in-1 jacket can be a really nice option. In one fell swoop, you get a standalone waterproof shell, insulating midlayer, and—put together—an insulated ski jacket. The versatility and value here is second to none. And while many jackets in this category are of the budget variety (like the Columbia Bugaboo below), The North Face’s ThermoBall Eco Snow Triclimate is a nice upgrade at a good price. The 2-layer DryVent shell offers great coverage and modern resort styling, including features like a contoured waist, drop-tail hem, and sleek water-resistant front zip. But the main event here is the ThermoBall synthetic midlayer, which we've found does a pretty good impression of a lofty down piece—all while continuing to insulate when wet.

We understand the appeal of a 3-in-1 design, especially if you’re shopping for both a ski jacket and a midlayer at once. However, it’s important to note that the zip-in system doesn’t add much value in terms of warmth or comfort. In fact, 3-in-1s are more prone to drafts than standard insulated designs, and the connected midlayer limits access to your interior pockets (note: the ThermoBall jacket features open handwarmer pockets with no zips). Further, the shell’s extra zippers can be unsightly when worn alone, and the additional materials add weight and bulk. In the end, we prefer the versatility of separating our shell and midlayer, with the main downside being the need to make a decision on two jackets rather than one. But for those who want the convenience of a 3-in-1 purchase, the ThermoBall Snow Triclimate is a solid option.See the TNF ThermoBall Eco Snow Triclimate
