We have selected a wide range for all your winter sports activities: ski backpacks for alpine skiing, cross-country skiing, snowboarding and freeride. These winter sports products are equipped with dedicated storage for your accessories: probe, shovel, avalanche transceiver, gloves and ski goggles — you'll find multiple zipped 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 are our tips for choosing the right backpack for your winter sports activities:
- A volume suited to your outings: for day trips at a ski resort or freeride sessions, opt for a small volume to carry only the essentials and easily shed a warm layer if conditions allow. For multi-day ski touring trips, a large pack of at least 30L is the minimum!
- Think about your safety gear: especially for off-piste skiing or ski touring, choose a dedicated pack with a specific pocket to store your shovel, probe and avalanche transceiver.
- Carrying your skis or snowboard should be a simple, functional system — especially when you need to walk with skis attached to your pack.
- The back system of your pack needs to be comfortable and provide good support.
- Compression straps and hip belts are designed to balance the load and distribute weight evenly — an essential feature when your pack is fully loaded.
With these tips, you're all set to choose your ski backpack and hit the slopes!
