The Helly Hansen Legendary Pant for women is a good looking, comfortable, and functional option that is a good choice for those looking to combine comfort and durability.

This is a weather-protective pant that is adjustable and can suit a range of temperatures.

The Flylow Sassyfrass Pant for women is a functional, stylish, and adjustable pant that is well-suited for snowboarders who want a mobile and durable option. The issue with this pant is the lack of both user and expert reviews, which prevents us from confidently recommending this product.

The DAKINE Beretta 3L Bib Pant for women is a relaxed-fit, breathable, and comfortable option to wear for long days on the mountain. There are some mixed reviews, however, with some complaints of the Gore-Tex delaminating, the elastic pulling away, and the leg cuffs being very wide. Additionally, some complain that the pockets and straps aren’t the best quality when compared to other options. Take these complaints into account before purchasing these pants.
The Columbia Bugaboo II Interchange Hooded Jacket for women is a weather-protective, stylish, and versatile jacket that is well-suited for everyday use at the ski resort. Despite not being the best option for prolonged exposure to wet weather, it can withstand basic rain and snow for a day on the mountain. The main issue with this jacket is the inner fleece liner sticking out beneath the other layers, causing some irritation and bunching while wearing. We would recommend this option for those who want a warm and protective jacket.
The Arc’teryx Alpha SV Jacket for women is a heavy-duty, protective, and breathable option that is well-suited for those who are going to be in tough conditions, and especially alpine athletes who need mobility and ample weather protection.

The Arc’teryx Covert Cardigan for women is a warm, comfortable, and stylish layering option, that is well-suited for casual use around town. Despite providing warmth and having some technical features, like hand-warmer pockets and a microfleece-lined collar, the cardigan isn’t really constructed for high performance. The lack of a hood, no water-resistance, non-breathable material, and a fit that inhibits a full range of motion means this layer is best for casual and indoor use, or for layering underneath a technical shell during light activity.
