Obermeyer has engineered performance ski apparel since 1947, combining technical material science with precision fit so every layer works harder on the mountain.
Shell Jackets Engineered for Every Condition
A men's ski shell jacket gives you weatherproof protection without locking you into a fixed warmth level, and that flexibility is exactly what we built the Obermeyer shell lineup around. The M Steibis Jacket is the versatile choice here, a waterproof breathable shell that handles variable resort conditions and backcountry adjacent days without fuss. If you ski hard, run hot, or want a cleaner silhouette for high-output days, the Foraker Shell Jacket is engineered for that profile, pairing high breathability with a construction that rewards strategic layering on big mountain terrain.
How to Choose Your Shell: Steibis vs. Foraker
Activity intensity and layering preference are the two questions that separate these jackets. The M Steibis Jacket suits skiers who want an all-conditions shell with a relaxed, versatile fit that sits comfortably over a midlayer without binding or pulling. The Foraker Shell Jacket is the call for skiers who prioritize an athletic cut, maximum breathability, and a streamlined fit that moves with aggressive, high-tempo skiing rather than around it.
Why Buy Men's Ski Shell Jackets
- Layer Freely - The Foraker Shell Jacket pairs with any midlayer, so your warmth adjusts with the mountain, not against it
- All Conditions Ready - The M Steibis Jacket handles wet snow, wind, and variable resort weather without skipping a run
- Athletic Fit Advantage - The Foraker Shell Jacket's streamlined cut stays out of your way on steep, fast terrain
- Relaxed Versatility - The M Steibis Jacket layers comfortably over fleece or synthetic insulation without restricting movement
- Season Long Value - Both jackets extend your usable outerwear range from midwinter cold to spring slush
- Proven Construction - Waterproof breathable builds on both jackets keep sweat vapor moving out while moisture stays out
