Product Details
Some jackets look great in the lodge and give up by lunch. As one of Obermeyer's most popular styles, the Obermeyer Foundation Jacket is a versatile piece built for skiers who wear it all season on the mountain. Its bold, sport-inspired Obermeyer design pairs a HydroBlock® Pro shell with Skier Critical™ seam sealing, 100g of insulation, and reinforced shoulders, and REPREVE® recycled material makes it one of the most dependable men's ski jackets in the lineup.

FAQs
Is the Obermeyer Foundation Jacket waterproof?
Yes. HydroBlock® Pro fabric and Skier Critical™ seam sealing protect you from snow and wet weather without giving up breathability, and the Snap-Away powder skirt keeps snow out at the waist. Every jacket is also backed by Obermeyer's Limited Lifetime Warranty.
How warm is the Foundation Jacket?
It's warm enough for cold weather, with 100g of insulation in the body, 80g in the sleeves, and 40g in the hood, and you can add a midlayer for extra warmth on the coldest days. When conditions change, CZV™ vents release heat, and you can learn more about Obermeyer's insulation.
How does the Foundation Jacket fit?
It has a regular fit with room to layer underneath and Ski Contour™ articulation, so layering doesn't limit your movement. It comes in XS to 3XL in regular and tall lengths, and Obermeyer's fit guide explains each fit.
Is the Obermeyer Foundation Jacket made with recycled material?
Yes. The HydroBlock® Pro fabric is 45% REPREVE® polyester, and each jacket contains 11 plastic bottles' worth of recycled material. Learn more about REPREVE® on Obermeyer's technology blog.
How does the Foundation compare to other Obermeyer ski jackets?
The Foundation shares its 100g body insulation and HydroBlock® Pro shell with the Fall Line Jacket, which uses PrimaLoft® Black Eco fill. The Charger Jacket steps up to a 30K/30K HydroBlock® Prime shell, while the Raze Jacket uses lighter 60g insulation and adds a short length.
