The Berno Julia is a women's ski jacket built around PrimaLoft Silver insulation at 133g, a stretch nylon-elastane shell and a built-in snow skirt with gripper elastic. The hood and faux fur trim both come off, so it moves from the slopes to town. Waterproofing is rated 5,000mm, which handles light snow and dry cold days but not wet, heavy storms. Owners call it warm and well made and like the stretch and the fur detail; the main complaint is that it runs small and the slim cut leaves little room for layers.

Buyers describe the Julia as warm, well made and generously insulated, with a flattering fit and a much-praised faux fur trim. The recurring complaint is sizing: it runs small and the slim cut is tight over layers.
The Julia is a women's ski jacket with PrimaLoft Silver insulation (133g) and a 5,000mm waterproof rating. A built-in snow skirt with gripper elastic works as a barrier against the elements.
The hood is adjustable and removable, and so is the faux fur trim. The jacket has a full zip closure, thumbhole cuffs, side zip pockets and an interior pocket.
It has a classic fit. The shell is 88% nylon and 12% elastane. It runs slightly small: it fits over a thin base layer, and sizing up is suggested for layering a sweater underneath.
