How to dress for skiing? Our tips
We're often on the hunt for the perfect outfit for skiing. To answer your questions, follow our tips to help you choose the right ski outfit:
- Wear as a first layer some high-performance thermal ski base layers to protect you from the cold — there are all kinds available, but merino wool or the classic fleece base layer are 2 great options. This layer is particularly important when temperatures are cool.
- Layer on top a ski mid layer fleece or down (puffer jacket) type to provide warmth — again, this layer will be important for those who feel the cold easily or if your skiing style is fairly low-intensity. Freeride enthusiasts or those who stick to black runs can skip it, as the physical exertion is enough to keep them warm!
- As your final layer, put on your ski jacket, this must be perfectly windproof, waterproof against snow thanks to its membrane and heat-welded seams, and warm thanks to an insulating layer to protect you from cold, wind and snow. Some may even prefer a waterproof hiking jacket paired with a warm layer underneath.
- Complete 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 salopettes that has made Cimalp's reputation!
- Accessories should never be overlooked when buying winter clothing. Warm, durable gloves will keep your hands warm while protecting them from the cold. Thick, warm socks are also an excellent option for keeping 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.
