4 Best Ski Wear to Hit The Slopes In Style

4-best-ski-wear-to-hit-the-slopes-in-style

In 2016, I accidentally found myself on skis, tackling the bunny slopes in borrowed black salopettes and Uniqlo Heattech. Six years later, as a fashion editor, I now know a lot about GORE-TEX 3 layer technologies, thanks to some ski rental company that rents stylish but high-performance skiwear. As a result, I've become something of an unwitting expert on the subject of what to wear on the slopes due to the fact that much of our dinnertime conversation now centres on which are the best waterproof technologies and new skiwear brands. 

All-In-One Ski Suit

I'm a big fan of the retro vibe that comes with all-in-one ski suits, and I also appreciate how sleek and put-together they make the wearer look. Recently, the one piece has seen a huge surge in popularity, and looser fits reminiscent of the 1980s have also made a comeback. Market leaders in this sector include Mytheresa, Net-a-porter, and MatchesFashion, among others.Shop now.

Ski Trousers

The salopettes or ski pants you buy before your trip may seem completely out of character with the rest of your wardrobe, but they are a necessity. For days when the snowfall is light, you can choose a style that flares over your ski boots and has gaiters to keep snow from going up your trouser legs, or you can opt for in-boot stirrup leggings. Bib pants with braces are another favourite of mine because they keep snow out at the waist, are very warm, and stay put while you're on the go. Shop now.

Ski Helmets

It is highly recommended that you bring along a helmet on your skiing trip, as they are now required by law in the majority of countries and ski areas. You can save some space in your luggage by renting these at the resort, but if you're a serious skier, you should probably bring your own. Shop now.

Snow Boots

Until recently, there weren't many options when it came to snow boots, but now, thanks to the popularity of the chunky boot, the market is flooded with various styles and sizes to suit your needs. My trusty pair of Sorel boots have taken me on eight separate ski trips, and Moon Boots are the gold standard for stomping through deep powder (I love their mini booties) (and counting).  Shop now.
