Powderhorn Palomino Jacket
Powderhorn is a ski apparel company that originally launched in the 1970s in Jackson Hole. The brand disappeared for a few decades and then reemerged again a couple of years ago. Now the clothes are made in Switzerland, but they still have a distinctly Western feel to them. All winter, I’ve been wearing Powderhorn’s Palomino Jacket, a women’s full-zip softshell jacket. Its best asset is its versatility: It’s cozy and slim-fitting enough to wear as a midlayer under your hardshell on cold ski days, it’s wind-resistant enough to wear as an outer layer while shoveling your driveway, and it’s stylish enough to wear while sipping martinis in Aspen.
