Skiwear / Thermal Recs

Potentially off skiing next year and need to stock up on clothing! I have a couple of the main things already like a jacket / salopettes but would love other recs too please for what to take with me. No max budget but a variety of price points would be helpful! Thank you x

I swear by Uniqlo Heat Tech - Women's HEATTECH thermal clothing & underwear | UNIQLO UK

It is a lifesaver, not just for skiing but for winter in general x

Sweaty Betty do some nice base layers too - worth looking out for in Boxing Day sales - Ski Thermals & Base Layers for Women | Sweaty Betty

I recommend getting a body suit as a base layer so it doesn’t ride up and keeps your lower back toasty. I got some great ones from About, it’s a Norwegian company I think

Thank you! X

I second Uniqlo - or a budget option Decathlon is amazing - especially for things like socks, thermal underwear and other little bits that you need quite a few off: https://www.decathlon.co.uk/browse/c0-sports/c1-skiing/c3-ski-thermals/_/N-xbwg20

Could be worth renting out some of the additional bits, By Rotation has a tonne of moon boots, hats etc!

Love these trousers too if you want to mix up the looks on the slope!

Ooo fab thank you for the help everyone! Will check these out x

Worth getting some decent ski socks, I like Faulk ones. Perhaps worth looking on Vinted too, have been selling some kids ski kit successfully on there. Snow + Rock is a good site for ski clothes.

I usually wear socks from Smartwool (my feet have never been cold) then a base layer from Patagonia/Sweaty Betty/Uniqlo - I second the ultra warm heat tech reccy above!!

Then depending on the weather I’ll wear a fleece or merino wool jumper again from Patagonia/Columbia/perfect moment

Then my ski jacket and pants or suit on top.

I also recommend anon ski goggles that come with a gator to cover your whole face!
