Past Season Womens Jackets Lists

To make this list more useful I have broken this list down into two sections:

• The Top 5 Women’s Insulated Snowboarding Jackets; and
• The Top 5 Women’s Non-Insulated Snowboarding Jackets

Of the 77 women's insulated jackets that I rated:

Of the 23 non-insulated jackets that I rated:

To make this list more useful I have broken this list down into four sections and this includes:

• The Top 5 Women’s Insulated Snowboarding Jackets
• The Top 5 Women’s Non-Insulated Snowboarding Jackets
• The Top 5 Women’s Snowboarding Jackets between $250 & $300
• The Top 5 Women’s Snowboarding Jackets $250 and under

This list has been updated for the 2021-22 season.

O.k. let’s get into the lists.

If you’re someone who runs cold – or if you tend to ride in cold conditions, then these jackets are probably for you. Also for anyone who wants their jacket to do the insulating and doesn’t want to worry too much about layering underneath.

Note: These are the top jackets (assessed for waterproofing, breathability and functionality) that also have insulation – but the amount of or the type of insulation hasn’t been assessed.

Price is not taken into account for this except that anything over $500 wasn’t considered.

Note: The following would have also made this list, but are already in the "between $250 and $300" list below:

• DC Sovereign
  

If you prefer your jacket to be a shell – something that maximizes focus on waterproofing and being breathable and is lighter than an insulated jacket– and you want to be able to do your own insulating with layers and you can use your jacket for spring/warm weather riding as well, without over-heating, then these might be more your style.

This wasn’t as easy a task as I thought it would be. It seems that a majority of women’s snowboarding jackets have some sort of insulation included. But I did find 16 non-insulated jackets and these were the highest rated of those.

Note: The following would have also made this list, but are already included in the "between $200 and $300" list below:

• Burton Gore-Tex Powline
• Volcom Aris Gore-Tex

The jackets in the 2 lists above don’t take price into consideration. Truth is that not everyone can afford to, or are willing to, spend that much on a snowboarding jacket.

If you’ve got a reasonable budget, but not willing to spend too much, but still want good waterproofing, breathability and other performance factors out of your jacket, these jackets are probably for you.

Of the 25 jackets that I rated that cost between $250 and $300:

If you want to get the best you can in terms of performance – but want to spend as little as possible to get it, then this is the list for you. You'll have to sacrifice a little bit in performance but these are the best that I’ve found in terms of performance for under $250.

Of the 20 jackets that I rated that cost less than $250:

Thanks for Reading

I hope this list has given you some options for your next or first snowboarding jacket – depending on your needs and your budget.
