The SYNC Performance Shelter is the brand's warmest women's ski parka, built around Primaloft Down Blend insulation and a 20k/20k two-layer fabric with four-way stretch. It is aimed at cold-weather skiers who want a flattering, mobile jacket for sub-zero mornings rather than a rain shell. Owners rate the warmth and fit highly and like the heavy-duty zippers and pocket layout. The main complaints are that the DWR underperforms in wet snow or rain, the hand pockets are small, and the hood and cuffs need attention at speed.
