Jack Frost, Thanks for your question. The Peak Performance BL Down Jacket is definitely not a ski jacket. Like the previous poster said, you could wear this skiing on the most cold of days. This jacket comes from the Black Light collection, thus the BL designation, which is Peak Performance's collection for alpinism and mountaineering. The BL Down Jacket is an expedition worthy down jacket with supporting feature sets (internal water bottle pockets, etc), opposed to powder skirs and other more ski specific features. I hope this is helpful for you.

I am sure it is a great in bounds(ski lifts) ski jacket on super cold days....And multi day ski tours wears you will encounter extreme cold....
