Neck padding: Choose a ski jacket with neck padding to provide additional warmth at the back of the neck in extremely cold conditions.
Lining: For greater protection in extremely cold weather, choose a parka or a bulky ski jacket with a fur lining or other fur lining alternative. For speed skiing or racing, choose a lighter ski jacket with micro-fleece lining that provides adequate insulation.
