Our Kate ski parka is a FERA customer favorite with good reason: it strikes the perfect balance of puffy and tailored, fits like a warm hug, and adds a refreshing dose of sportiness to the slopes. Mix-and-match with our Brooke bib and High Heaven pant for maximum style. We recommend sizing up since this style is generously insulated and fits snug.
Fit, Fabric + Features
Above hip-length, semi-tailored. Center back length for size 8 is 24"
Proper care is essential to the long term quality and enjoyment of your FERA and Meister products. Please consult the care label attached to your product for specific instructions. We recommend the following care guidelines for FERA jackets and pants with waterproof fabrics: Do not dry clean your FERA garment. The chemicals used may damage the waterproof lamination. Empty all pockets; remove any faux-fur, suspenders or any other detachable trim; and close all zippers. Machine wash the garment in cold water by itself with a small or moderate amount of detergent. Do not use softener or bleach. Set on an extended rinse cycle to get all detergent out of the insulation. OK to use a stain remover prior to washing. Tumble dry the garment by itself on a low or low-medium heat setting. Run the dryer for an extended cycle or as long as is required for the garment to dry completely inside. For down or puffy jackets, toss in 1-2 tennis balls into the dryer to help fluff the garment. Hang the fully-dried garment in a cool and dry place for storage. Do not store damp or in direct sunlight.
