Moncler Grenoble Ski Jackets for Women: 2026 Guide

The best Moncler ski jacket for women this winter depends on the snow you ski: a GORE-TEX jacket such as the Laplance in Black for wet days, a down jacket labelled Maximum Warmth for deep cold. Every style below comes from the Moncler Grenoble line, now in our women’s ski jackets edit.

Updated October 2026.

What is Moncler Grenoble?

Moncler Grenoble is the ski line of Moncler, launched in 2010, while the mainline collection is designed for the city. The name points back to 1968, when Moncler supplied the French downhill team at the Grenoble Winter Olympics, a story you can follow on Moncler’s Wikipedia page. The house itself began in 1952 in Monestier-de-Clermont, a village near Grenoble.

The practical difference shows on the product page. A Grenoble jacket is described as “designed for skiing and snowboarding” and lists the kit a mainline puffer leaves out: a powder skirt, a ski pass pocket, stretch jersey wrist gaiters and water-repellent zips. If you are deciding between the two lines, our guide to Moncler Grenoble vs Moncler sets them side by side. For the full women’s range beyond the mountain, start with the pillar guide to Moncler jackets for women.

This season Moncler’s own product notes tie the collection to Aspen, the setting of its Grenoble Autumn/Winter 2026 show. You can see it in the details: fringed trims, western piping across the yoke, embroidered roses and an Aspen leaf motif.

Which Moncler Grenoble ski jackets for women are GORE-TEX?

Four women’s styles in this launch use a GORE-TEX laminate: the Laplance, Caurel, Bwindis and Ampay. All four also list heat-sealed seams and a RECCO reflector. The table below uses only what Moncler states on each page.

Laplance: the belted one

The Laplance is the most fitted jacket in the GORE-TEX group. It has a detachable belt, a hood with a detachable long-haired sheepskin trim and Slim fit at 63 cm. Take the Laplance in White if you want the classic all-white ski look; Black and Beige are also in the range. The trim is lamb shearling, which Moncler lists in the composition.

Caurel and Bwindis: room to move

Both are Loose fit and longer, so they cover the hips on a cold chairlift. The Caurel in Brown adds zipped sleeve vents with stretch micro mesh for hot afternoons, plus a removable sheepskin collar. The Bwindis in Black is the longest at 75 cm and has a hood with a visor. Bwindis is made in China; the other GORE-TEX styles are made in Romania.

Ampay: colour and a down hood

The Ampay in Pink pairs GORE-TEX with PrimaLoft Gold Active and a down-filled hood with visor. It also has a chest pocket with hook-and-loop closure, handy for a phone you check often.

Which Moncler ski jacket is warmest for women?

The warmest women’s Moncler ski jackets are the 18 that Moncler labels Maximum Warmth, among them the Allesaz, Tolima, Guyane, Loira, Bessin and Sioule. These are mostly down-filled jackets with a water-repellent finish and a two-layer stretch shell, rather than a GORE-TEX membrane.

The Allesaz in Black is the one we would pick for a January week in a high resort. It combines down with heat-sealed seams, a RECCO reflector and a Loose fit that leaves room for a fleece. The Tolima in Black is the simpler choice: two-layer four-way stretch nylon, down, a detachable belt and a powder skirt.

Moncler’s warmth labels describe the padding, not the whole system. A Medium Warmth GORE-TEX jacket over a merino base layer and a light fleece can feel warmer on a windy ridge than a Maximum Warmth down jacket over a thin top. Our guide on how to layer for skiing walks through the combinations.

Which Moncler ski jackets have RECCO?

Ten women’s styles list a RECCO reflector: Allesaz, Ampay, Bwindis, Caurel, Chanavey, Danses, Hainets, Laplance, Loira and Vizelles. A RECCO reflector is a small passive tag that organised rescue teams can locate with a detector; it needs no battery but does not replace an avalanche transceiver off-piste. Read What is RECCO? before you rely on it.

The Dermizax trio

Three RECCO styles use Dermizax, a two-layer stretch membrane fabric that Moncler describes as waterproof, windproof and breathable. The Hainets in White Ivory has a pull-out hood with visor and a detachable belt with glove carabiner. The Chanavey in Black puts down at the back and hood and PrimaLoft at the front and sleeves, with underarm vents. The Vizelles in Pink adds a detachable sheepskin collar.

Stretch poplin for active days

The Danses in Navy Blue is cut from two-layer four-way stretch poplin and has a pull-out hood that packs into its own zipped compartment. At 59 cm it is short, so pair it with high-waisted ski trousers. Moncler describes its two-layer build as waterproof and windproof.

Are the fringed and floral jackets real ski jackets?

Yes: the Bessin, Larosiere, Olonne and Karshi styles all carry a powder skirt, wrist gaiters and a ski pass pocket, but none of them lists heat-sealed seams. The Bessin Fringed Insulated Ski Jacket in Black is down-filled with Maximum Warmth and padding under the arms. The Larosiere in White Ivory has ruffle trims and is the shortest jacket in the range at 54 cm. Think of these as cold, dry, bluebird-day jackets that also look right at lunch on the terrace.

How do Moncler women’s ski jackets fit?

Moncler states a fit on every women’s ski jacket: 27 are Regular, 10 are Loose and 6 are Slim, and its pages give no advice to size up. Most product pages show the model at 177 to 180 cm wearing size S, which is a Moncler 1.

Many buyers size up when they layer a thick knit under a Slim style such as the Laplance; with Loose styles like the Allesaz that is rarely needed. None of the women’s pages in this launch calls a hood helmet-compatible, so try the hood with your helmet on before the first lift. The full chart, from 000 to 7, is in our Moncler size guide for women.

A word on the down. Moncler buys its down under the DIST Protocol, its traceability and animal-welfare standard. The shearling trims on styles such as Laplance, Caurel and Vizelles are real lamb shearling, listed on each page; our guide to whether Moncler uses real fur explains the difference between fur and shearling.
