We have selected a wide range for all your winter sports activities: ski backpacks for piste skiing, cross-country skiing, snowboarding or freeride. These winter sports products feature dedicated storage for your accessories: probe, shovel, avalanche transceiver, gloves or ski goggles — you'll find multiple zip pockets to protect your gear. Of course, you'll also find straps and carriers for skis or a snowboard.

How to choose your ski backpack?
Here is our advice for choosing the right backpack for your winter sports activities:
- A volume suited to your outings: for day sessions at a resort or freeride, opt for a small volume so you only carry what you need and can remove a warm layer if conditions allow. For multi-day ski touring outings, a large pack of at least 30L is the minimum!
- Don't forget your safety accessories: especially for off-piste skiing or ski touring, choose a suitable pack with a dedicated pocket for your shovel, probe and avalanche transceiver
- Carrying your skis or snowboard should be a simple and functional system if you need to walk with your skis attached to the pack
- The back system of your pack must be comfortable and provide good support
- Compression straps and hip belts are designed to balance the load and distribute the weight evenly — essential when your pack is fully loaded
With this advice, you're all set to choose your ski backpack and hit the slopes!
