Rossignol Evader 3L Jacket & Pants 2025 Review

Apparently, @Twig 's first ever ski jacket was Rossignol, so clearly they’ve been making outerwear for a LONG time now. Until recently though, it was a much more common sight in Europe than in North America. That is slowly changing thanks to a stacked team and some unique products. The Evader Jacket and Pants come from the freeride end of their lineup, offering technical specs but in a comfortable, almost softshell-feeling package.

We liked the layout of the Evader jacket more than the Corbets on the women’s side, it offered better pocket options. There’s one extra chest pocket and a better internal drop pocket too. The pit vents are unlined for better airflow and are bigger than on the women’s jacket too. It still feels warm, but not as warm, and has better airflow options. The fabric feels pretty burly and it’s easy to move in. In terms of both comfort and durability, this feels like a great daily resort jacket.

The pants feature strategic microfleece panels (including on the seat, keep your cheeks warm), hip pockets and offer decent storage overall. The kick panels are pretty burly on these and in all, they feel like a well-made product. Both jacket and pants have a 3L construction but it isn’t crinkly like some, which we really liked.

Who’s it for?
We think these are more suited to the resort, or shorter touring missions. They are packable but not as easily as thinner, more technical kits. Skiers who ski cold places, and/or regularly find themselves getting cold on the hill will love these. This was the warmest men’s kit we tried at the test, and yet it was still very easy to move in.

Fit guide:
Both jacket & pants are regular fitting. Size up for a more relaxed look, the pants cinch well on the waist. They do have a narrower fit overall though, so they aren’t ever going to look ‘wide’.
