Mammut Stoney HS Jacket & Pants Review: My Ski Shell for Storm Days


Why I wear the Mammut Stoney HS jacket and pants on powder days, in snowstorms, and in changing ski conditions.

Why I Chose the Mammut Stoney HS Ski Outerwear Kit

I love my Mammut ski gear. Love it. It feels great on and has held up through everything I’ve skied in.

I ski in variable weather—powder days in Colorado, icy runs in the Midwest, windy lift rides. I wanted outerwear that could handle it all without feeling bulky or restrictive.

I also like things that look clean but not overdesigned. The Stoney HS jacket and pants hit that balance perfectly: protective, minimal, and well-made.

And I like knowing it’s designed and made in the Swiss Alps. When a brand builds gear in the environment it’s meant for, it shows. The craftsmanship, fit, and function are dialed.

I’ve worn this combo in Vail, Beaver Creek, Breck, Park City, Powder Mountain, and some deep Midwest days, and it works great every time.

I feel the orange I have is like wearing a high-visibility vest worn in hazardous work situations. I can be seen so I don’t get knocked by a skier from behind. However, I have my eye on the Dark Marsh as seen below for next season.

Pro tip: The Mammut Stoney HS Pant comes in a thermal version which I have. I rarely wear them because they work so well and I can get hot. But, they are great for very cold windy days to have.

I’ve since moved into the newer Moss colorway, and I cover the updated fit, materials, and my experience with both versions in my Mammut Stoney HS Hooded Jacket Review: The Ski Shell I Wear All Winter.


How the Mammut Stoney HS Kit Performs on the Mountain

Waterproofing: Both pieces use Mammut DRYtechnology Pro, which is totally waterproof and windproof, even in heavy snow and chairlift rides.

Breathability: The venting zips work, and the fabric doesn’t trap sweat. The venting system comes in handy even at places like Vail—as the windy days are cold, but some you just get so hot.

Mobility: These don’t feel stiff or crinkly. I can bend, carve, hike, and stretch in them without resistance.

Pockets: The jacket has enough room for snacks, a pass, and a phone, and the pants have smart storage without bulk.

Durability: No tears, no seams popping, no wet-through after seasons of use. Still looks great.


What I Like

  • Clean design and modern fit

  • True all-weather protection

  • Long cut on jacket = great coverage

  • Jacket hood fits over a helmet

What I Don’t Love

  • Mammut sizing runs a bit Euro (slim fit—try a size up if layering)

  • Price is steep, but it’s outerwear that lasts

Pro tip: Mammut has a ton of sales. Sign up for their newsletter to learn when they are available. I’ve never paid full price for my gear. Heads-up: Sizes often sell out during those sales, so weigh your timing.


Final Take

If you’re looking for ski outerwear that actually performs in wind, snow, and spring slush—the Mammut Stoney HS jacket and pants are it.

This is the kit I wear the most. It packs small, breathes well, and keeps me dry even on the longest, coldest chairlift rides. It’s built for real mountain weather, and it’s held up season after season.
