How to dress for skiing — our tips
Finding the perfect ski outfit is something we all strive for. To help answer your questions, here are our tips to guide you in choosing your ski gear:
- Wear as a base layer high-performance ski thermal base layers to protect you from the cold — there are all kinds, but merino wool or the classic fleece base layer are both good options. This layer is particularly important when temperatures are cold.
- Layer over it a ski mid layer fleece or down (down jacket) type to keep you warm — again, this layer will be important for those who feel the cold easily or if your skiing is not particularly energetic. Hardcore freeriders and black run enthusiasts can skip it, as the physical effort will be enough to keep them warm!
- As your outer layer, pull on your ski jacket, this must be fully windproof, waterproof against snow thanks to its membrane and taped seams, and warm thanks to an insulating layer, protecting you from cold, wind and snow. Some may even prefer a waterproof hiking jacket paired with a warm layer underneath.
- Finish your outfit with a ski trousers, which, like the jacket, should be waterproof, windproof and warm. For a more classic look, go for the timeless ski stirrup trousers that made Cimalp's reputation!
- Accessories should not be overlooked when buying winter clothing. Warm, resistant gloves will help keep your hands warm while protecting them from cold temperatures. Thick, warm socks are also an excellent option to keep your feet warm throughout the day. For better protection, don't forget to add a beanie or even a helmet for winter sports such as alpine skiing or snowboarding.
