Arcteryx Shashka Jacket

Arc'teryx Shashka Jacket

Fully furnished to ski the waist deep powder of Japan's birch forests or the manicured slopes of St Moritz, the Arc'teryx Shashka Jacket's durable, lightweight and highly breathable waterproof GORE-TEX® Pro shell construction prohibits snow ingress, even during the most challenging climatic conditions. Patterned to grant extensive freedom of movement and intuitive function, the Women's Arc'teryx Shashka Jacket will protect and shelter regardless of the routes you ski.

GORE-TEX® Pro Waterproof

The Arc'teryx Shashka Jacket features a versatile 3-layer shell construction built around a GORE-TEX® Pro membrane, whose micro pores are impervious to water molecules, for the highest level of waterproof and breathable protection. Bound to the inside surface is a GORE® Micro Grid Woven Backer for lightweight, compact, yet highly durable and breathable performance and comfort, that slides easily over under-layers. Technically advanced n40p-x fabric bonded to the exterior, creates a high-tenacity backcountry-ready outer with a DWR treatment that beads and releases water droplets in a flash.

Versatile & Lightweight

Superbly lightweight, this ski jacket provides extended versatility, allowing the selection of conditions-appropriate layers beneath. Combine with an insulated Arc'teryx jacket for mid-winter warmth, or a baselayer alone for sunny spring days.

Motion Extending Fit

Motion extending details include the Arc'teryx Shashka Jacket's articulated elbows, no lift gusseted underarms, and an Ergonomic 3-Dimensional fit that supplies the ability to follow the extended motion required for skiing technical lines. A micro seam allowance reduces weight and bulk, while increasing breathability.

Storm Proof

The StormHood™ easily accommodates a ski helmet, while the precise patterning and Cohaesive™ drawcord system allows the Arc'teryx ski jacket's hood to rotate with your head for peripheral vision, while its laminated brim extends weather-proof function. The Arc'teryx Shashka Jacket's Cohaesive™ cord locks can be worked while wearing gloves or mittens for fuss-free, single-handed adjustments.

Powder Skirt

The Arc'teryx Shashka Jacket's snap closure powder skirt creates a further barrier to snow ingress; its gripper elastic seals around ski pants, while Slide 'n Loc™ attachments secure to compatible Arc'teryx women's ski pants. The Arc'teryx Shashka Jacket's Cohaesive™ hem drawcord and Velcro® adjustable cuff tabs also prevent cold drafts robbing warmth.

WaterTight™ Zippers

Sealed with Arc'teryx's WaterTight™ zippers, the Arc'teryx Shashka Jacket prevents snow accumulating in bulky zipper flaps, which also reduces excess weight.

Venting Zips

The Arc'teryx Shashka Jacket's ski pack compatible underarm WaterTight™ zipped vents allow cool air to circulate on extended traverses or demanding descents.

Intuitive Pockets

Placed to allow ready access to essential items, the Arc'teryx Shashka Jacket has an exposed zip chest and sleeve pocket, two hand pockets with RS™ zipper sliders, one internal mesh pocket, and one internal laminated zipped pocket.

Neatly Fitted

Astoundingly lightweight, yet durable and fully protective, this women's Arc'teryx ski jacket packs in a remarkable amount of features to secure extensive and reliable protection from winter conditions. Neatly fitted and femininely-styled, the GORE-TEX® Pro Arc'teryx Shashka Jacket is all set for Recco® backed adrenaline-fuelled skiing with breathtaking views.
