At first glance, the Scott Ultimate Premium GTX Women’s has a subdued appearance—but the technology that’s packed inside should definitely turn the heads of big-mountain skiers. Reliable Gore-Tex Active waterproofing, paired with a three-layer Dermizax shell and Scott’s proprietary wind- and water-resistant Dryosphere membrane, maintain internal breathability while preventing snow-borne soaking. Additionally, a reinforced goat leather palm provides durability while padding on the back of the hand adds a nice bit of protection.
