Fly Jacket

skywalk x Salewa Fly Jacket

Fly farther, higher, and – most importantly – warmer with the skywalk x Salewa Fly Jacket! Developed together with professional pilots and the mountain sports specialists at Salewa. Purpose‑built for paragliding, this jacket performs exactly when conditions send others to the landing site. 

Based on the proven previous model, the Fly Jacket has been completely refined: a more robust outer fabric, an improved fit, and optimized details for use inside the harness. The result is your reliable flying companion for long XC days, crisp spring conditions, and ambitious Hike&Fly missions.

The following features make this jacket an absolute must-have for every paragliding pilot

Minimal pack size

For Hike&Fly missions and long XC adventures, the Fly Jacket packs down small and stows into its own inner pocket. Compact enough to disappear in your backpack until you need it. 

Upgraded zippers

The main zipper and pocket zippers have been upgraded to more durable hardware designed for heavy, daily use in flight. This increases longevity and reliability, even with frequent on/off cycles at take-off. 

Optimized fit

The fit has been slightly refined for a more compact silhouette inside the harness while maintaining full freedom of movement. A special sleeve and shoulder construction prevents the sleeves from riding up when your hands are on the brakes. No more cold forearms in the airstream. 

More robust outer material

The new nylon ripstop outer material, made from 100% recycled polyamide and treated with a DWR finish, is exceptionally durable and perfectly optimized for use inside the harness. This ensures your jacket retains its shape and performance even after many hours in a pod or seat harness. 

Intelligent Insulation

The Fly Jacket combines 750 fill power down with strategically placed TirolWool® Responsive inserts on the back, cuffs, and collar. This body‑mapping approach ensures warmth exactly where you need it and maintains a balanced climate throughout your flight. 

Protection in unstable conditions

The DWR–treated outer fabric reliably repels wind and moisture–ideal for typical spring and autumn conditions or long flights at altitude where temperatures drop significantly. 

Clever storage for flight essentials

Two large zipped outer pockets remain accessible even when your chest strap is closed. Inside, two mesh pockets provide space for gloves, snacks, a power bank, or any essentials you want to keep within easy reach in flight. 

Thought-through flight details

Integrated glove loops keep your gloves secure during flight. An extended hem and elastic waistband with silicone print prevent the jacket from riding up inside the harness, eliminating cold spots at the hips. A high, insulated, adjustable collar effectively shields your neck and face from wind. Easily adjustable cuffs with large Velcro tabs and a soft inner cuff stop cold air from entering the sleeves. 

Unisex design, fresh look

The Fly Jacket is available as a unisex model in the color “faded green” and was developed together with Salewa. Co–branding with skywalk and Salewa emphasizes its engineered functionality and mountain–sports heritage. 

The unisex jacket in faded green weighs 525 grams (size M) and is available in sizes XS, S, M, L, XL and XXL. You can order the Fly Jacket from your skywalk dealer or from our skywalk online shop.
