Not for this jacket, check out the Mountain Light Jacket for just a shell. The Mountain Light is much similar to this and is also zip-in compatible if you already have the liner.

Answer to: "Hi. I need some help picking out some skins. I am buying them"

G3 Alpinist Climbing Skin

G3 Alpinist Climbing Skin

For 181's a size Medium should work (171 - 181cm).

Then it will come down to width. These are made in 70, 85, 100, 115, 130 and 140mm widths. For the best fit, measure the ski at its widest point; this will be near the tip. Or, if you know what ski it is, these dimensions will be posted.

Pick the skin width closest to this spec and then trim to fit. ie: A ski measuring 129mm at the tip should use a 130mm skin.

Stoic Welder Insulated Softshell Jacket - Men's

December 3, 2009

So, that venting spec is actually wrong; both jackets do have pit zips. Besides the obvious use of different insulations, the only additional feature in the Welder Insulated is an internal media pocket, which the Hi does not have.

When deciding between the two, for most it will come down to feel. Do you like the it fuzzy soft [Hi] or do you prefer smooth and quilted [Insulated]?
