JACKET » Bergans of Norway’s Slingsbytind Down, $229, is so light and compressible it fits into its own chest pocket. A water-repellent and windproof Pertex Microlight exterior lets you use it as a layering piece or on its own.

HAT » Helly Hansen’s Classic Loop Beanie, $30, is tricot-lined acrylic topped with a fluffy pom-pom for maximum girl power.

JACKET » Arc’teryx’s Ravenna, $525, is a technical waterproof-breathable Gore-Tex shell with a stretchy brushed-flannel lining. A trim silhouette and athletic fit make it an eye-catcher on the slopes. On snowy days, put up the helmet-compatible hood, zip up the insulated collar, and ski until the bullwheel stops spinning.

Waterproof-breathable fabric and moisture-wicking 3-D stretch lining keep water and sweat away from skin. The iceglory is a Bluesign sustainable product, meaning it was produced with an eco-friendly textile process.

PANTS » The Salomon Chillout Bib, $225, keeps skiers groovy on the slopes with light insulation, waterproof-breathable fabric, and seams sealed with waterproof tape. The bib is removable, the fit relaxed, and the thighs ventable.
