Don't get cold feet about your next ski trip because you can't find the right gear, we've found everything you need.
On a chilly winter morning, it's easy to yearn for the warm days of summer. Summer is packed with outdoor activities: hiking, surfing, beach volleyball, pickleball, or even going on a leisurely walk through the park. When it comes to the frigid winter, there's the perception you're stuck in the house without an escape. But that's not the case, in fact one of the best outdoor activities happens after a fresh snow: skiing.
If you're lucky enough to get away for a ski trip this winter, it can be a conundrum when packing. Ski trips aren't your normal vacations where you can throw on clothes you already own — you practically need a whole new wardrobe. Your regular coat likely won't suffice when speeding down an ice-covered mountain and without the proper ski gear, you'll be miserable all day when left unprotected from the elements.
There's a lot to consider when shopping for the right ski gear. You'll be working up a sweat, so while you need the extra warmth, you also need something breathable underneath to not overheat. Once you start considering bib pants and a heavy coat or a jumpsuit that covers you head to toe, your relaxing getaway has suddenly become quite stressful before it's even started.
We are here to lighten the load and help you find affordable ski gear, so you don't have to spend a fortune ahead of your winter adventure. We've found not only the best ski gear that will keep you warm and toasty all day, but also garments and outerwear that will have you looking super stylish on the slopes without breaking the bank. Ahead, shop the best picks in women's and men's ski wear for your ski trip this winter.
