Salomon Brilliant 2.0 Jacket — Men’s Ski

FAQ

Q1: How does Salomon sizing run — true to size, or should I size up/down (and does it accommodate a base/mid-layer)?
The Brilliant 2.0 has a regular fit, and most skiers will find it true to size. On Salomon’s product photos, a 6'2" model wears a size M. Because the jacket is already insulated, most people only need a base layer underneath, with a light mid-layer on the coldest days. We recommend trying it on in-store over the layers you usually ski in so you can find the right size.

Q2: Is this jacket warm and waterproof enough for storm days at Big White and SilverStar?
Yes. It has a 20,000mm waterproof rating from Salomon’s AdvancedSkin Dry construction, which handles heavy snowfall and wet storm days. The PrimaLoft Black insulation plus the HeiQ XReflex heat-reflecting layer make it Salomon’s warmest synthetic ski jacket. That makes it a strong choice for the cold, dry Okanagan days where temperatures drop well below freezing.

Q3: How do I care for AdvancedSkin Dry and PrimaLoft insulation to maintain waterproofing and breathability?
Close all zippers, then machine wash cold (30°C) with like colours. Use a liquid detergent. Never use powder detergent or fabric softener, since these can clog the fabric and reduce its performance. Don’t bleach or dry clean the jacket. Tumble dry on low, which also helps the synthetic insulation regain its loft.
