Armada Elvy 2L Shell Jacket — Women's Ski Shell

FAQ

Q1: How does Armada sizing run — true to size, or should I size up/down (and does it accommodate a base/mid-layer)?
The Elvy uses Armada's Women's Progressive Fit, a straighter, boxier silhouette with a shorter length and roomy armholes, so there's good space to layer a midlayer or insulated piece underneath. If you prefer a closer fit, consider sizing down; if you're between sizes, our in-store team can help you confirm the right choice.

Q2: Is this jacket warm and waterproof enough for deep Okanagan powder days at Big White or SilverStar?
The Elvy is rated 10,000mm waterproof and 10,000g breathable, which handles snow and moisture well on deep Okanagan days. It's a shell rather than an insulated piece, so pair it with a warm midlayer underneath for the coldest days on the hill.

Q3: How do I care for the fabric to maintain its waterproofing and breathability?
Machine wash cold (30°C) and tumble dry on low to help reactivate the DWR coating. Avoid bleach and dry cleaning, wash with like colours, and use a cool iron if needed. Skip standard detergents and fabric softeners, which can clog the waterproof membrane over time.
