Eider ski jackets and down jackets
Eider is a French mountain brand, and its jackets are searched by name, including the Vallee Blanche, Courchevel, Aspen, Norma, Chilly and Buet. This page helps you compare Eider jackets from UK retailers, see ski and insulated styles, and buy from the retailer you choose. We do not sell anything ourselves, so use this as a guide to warmth, protection and fit.
Choosing an Eider ski jacket
A ski jacket should seal out wind and snow with a hood, high collar and adjustable cuffs. Insulated or down styles add warmth for lifts and cold days. Check the length, the number of pockets and whether you can layer a fleece underneath. If you want to compare with other brands, look at jacket and coat brands A-Z. A close but mobile fit keeps you comfortable while you move.
Eider jackets for the mountains and town
A micro down hood jacket is a handy lightweight layer for hikes and cold mornings, and an insulated hoodie jacket works for casual days. For the slopes, choose a bolder colour so you are easy to spot in busy snow. For fashion-led alternatives, have a look at Elisabetta Franchi jackets. A packable layer is useful for changeable mountain weather.
Looking after an Eider jacket
Mountain clothing deserves a little maintenance. Follow the label, wash sparingly with a gentle detergent and dry slowly to keep the insulation fluffy. Brush off snow before hanging the jacket, and avoid storing it wet. When the fabric stops repelling water, reproof it, which restores the protective finish for the next trip. Take a moment to check the stitching, buttons and lining each season, because small repairs keep a good jacket wearable for many winters.
