Vail’s designer ski boutique showcasing Swiss-engineered style. At Miller Sports, we bring in Capranea for women because it nails the balance of mountain-grade performance and clean, modern design—pieces that look refined on Bridge Street and ski confidently in the Back Bowls.

Why Capranea in Vail?

Capranea builds for real alpine weather—20,000 mm waterproofing / 20,000 g/24h breathability on core jackets and pants—plus four-way stretch so the kit moves fluidly from cold lift rides to technical steeps. Smart details (detachable hood/gaiter, waterproof zips, knit cuffs) and elevated touches like waterproof wool inserts and mixed-finish fabrics keep it sleek and unmistakably premium—very Vail. If you’re new to the brand, start with what sets Capranea apart—design, innovation, sustainability, and heritage—then explore our women’s lineup below.

The Capranea Difference

Swiss-designed, European-made. Patterns and materials are directed from Switzerland and produced in top European factories for crisp lines, quality stitching, and a long-wear drape.
Innovation you can feel. Four-way stretch through outerwear and midlayers; purposeful insulation choices (down and synthetic) to regulate warmth when a bluebird morning turns to a squall.
Responsibility, not slogans. Tight partnerships with European textile makers and proximity to production support durability, traceability, and lower-impact logistics.
Real mountain lineage. Founder Marc Haensli’s family roots in alpine innovation give the line its “no-compromise” ethos—refined silhouettes that still rip when Vail turns on.
