The North Face: Men's Free Thinker Jacket - Add style to your ski wardrobe this winter with this tapered waterproof and breathable Free Thinker Jacket from The North Face. Made from triple layers of Gore-Tex® XCR® Enduro fabric, the Free Thinker masters the elements with a slight taper along the torso that hints at all the right elements of style. If the breathable fabric isn't enough for you, unzip the rotated core vents and chill. The North Face designed the Free Thinker Jacket with an infused polymer design and waterproof polyurethane zippers for optimal weather protection, making this shell a great choice for skiing in coastal mountain ranges where the snow is always a little less dry than the inland fluffy Continental Divide stuff. The Free Thinker has plenty of pockets for your gear and an integrated Recco® avalanche rescue reflector for those times that you meander through the danger zones. Add a tapered fleece middle layer and you're set to go in style.

The North Face: Women's Allure Jacket - Great for cold days at big powder mountain resorts, The North Face Allure Jacket features plenty of 600-fill down for optimal comfort. We carried this women's jacket for a couple of seasons and found that the women who buy it are looking for breathable comfort over outright watertight weather performance--a skier who tends to look for the high and dry winter destinations. With the exception of color choices, this year's Allure Jacket version isn't that different, although The North Face did shave a handful of ounces off the design without cutting out features. The Allure's adjustable hood can be worn over most helmets or you can zip the whole thing off and stash it one of the many external and internal pockets. Inside you'll find plenty of extras like a goggle pouch and a zippered compartment for your MP3 music player or other portable electronics. The left sleeve has a zippered accessory pocket that's cleaner than the upper sleeve patch pockets found on the unisex jackets most guys wear. If warmth is everything and you prefer staying out of the rain, The North Face Allure Jacket is exactly what you need.

Water-resistant and breathable dual-ply * HyVent™ double diamond ripstop fabric
* Exceptionally warm 600-fill down insulation
* Embossed taffeta lining on the inside
* Core vents with mesh gussets for cooling when you need it
