What All- Mountain Performance HS Hooded Jacket is made of, ingredients and materials
The Mtn. Pro 2.0 HS combines nylon and polyester with a water-repellent coating (water-repellent coating) finish applied to the outer layer. water-repellent coating coatings on premium ski jackets are historically treated with fluorinated compounds (PFAS) to achieve water shedding and durability in wet alpine conditions. Nylon and polyester themselves are stable synthetic polymers with no established leaching hazard during normal wear, but the chemical finish applied to them is the variable of concern.
What’s concerning
Category baseline
The starting point for this type of product, before anything specific to this product is counted.
No PFAS disclosure
No public statement from the brand about PFAS in this product.
Waterproof / stain-resistant treatment
Water-repellent coating treatments have historically used PFAS.
PFAS
Premium ski jackets are conventional targets for fluorinated water-repellent coating; The brand has not disclosed a fluorine-free option, making PFAS presence probable. Risk is inhalation during manufacturing and reapplication, and dermal contact during wet use, not acute toxicity from wearing the dry jacket.
Source, ATSDR ↗Formaldehyde / VOCs
Nylon and polyester blends often receive formaldehyde-containing resins for wrinkle resistance and shape retention. The brand does not publish finishing chemistry; off-gassing is typically minimal after initial cure but can occur in high heat (steaming, hot storage).
Source, ATSDR ↗Azo dyes in colored polyester and nylon
If the jacket includes dyed nylon or polyester (likely for the outer shell or lining), azo dyes may be used. Reputable outdoor brands typically avoid carcinogenic azo dyes, but without material certifications from the brand, this cannot be confirmed.
Microplastic shedding from synthetic fibers
Washing nylon and polyester releases microplastics into wastewater. This is an environmental hazard rather than direct consumer health risk, but hand washing (as recommended for jacket care) significantly reduces shedding compared to machine washing.
What’s reassuring
Flame retardants
No public record indicates the brand applies flame retardant treatments to ski jacket linings. If the Mtn. Pro 2.0 HS uses down or synthetic insulation, these materials are not routinely treated with halogenated flame retardants in apparel.

The brand's record and disclosure
The brand, a Swiss outdoor equipment manufacturer, has not published transparent information about PFAS use or fluorine-free alternatives in their water-repellent coating treatments as of available public records. The brand does not prominently advertise PFAS-free certifications or provide material safety disclosures on product pages. Competitors including Patagonia and Arc'teryx have made public commitments to phasing out PFAS in water-repellent coating treatments; The brand's silence suggests either continued use of fluorinated chemistry or a communication gap with consumers.
How it compares in its category
High-performance ski jackets at this price point typically rely on established water-repellent coating chemistry because fluorinated compounds outperform fluorine-free alternatives in durability and water repellency at extreme altitudes and temperatures. Some brands now offer PFAS-free water-repellent coating options (polyether or paraffin-based), though these may require more frequent reapplication. The brand's lack of marketing around a fluorine-free choice suggests the Mtn. Pro 2.0 HS likely uses conventional fluorinated water-repellent coating, placing it in the mainstream category where PFAS exposure risk is real but not immediately harmful during normal use.
If you buy it
Do not machine wash or tumble dry; hand wash in cool water and hang dry to avoid breaking down the water-repellent coating finish and potentially releasing residual coating chemicals. Avoid prolonged skin contact with untreated seams or wet inner linings in hot conditions (such as removing the jacket in a warm lodge while still damp). Before purchase, contact customer service directly asking whether the water-repellent coating treatment is fluorine-free; their response will clarify whether this jacket meets your PFAS tolerance. Expect to reapply water-repellent coating treatment annually or as water repellency visibly declines, which reintroduces exposure risk if you use conventional products.
