We have some of the most innovative snow gear available today, whether you are an uphill skier searching for the ideal resort shell or a backcountry explorer ready to take on the mountain with full gear. These jackets are designed to keep you dry, warm and comfortable in any weather.

Top Ski Gear: All-Mountain & Backcountry Jackets

There are many different types of ski clothing available. Research the conditions before purchasing a new item of gear. Some uphill skiers may be looking for jackets with insulation to keep warm on cold chairlift rides. Others might not want to buy a jacket because of the extra weight.

Many of the best ski jackets are made with a waterproof, windproof and breathable material. Some have an extra layer of insulation to keep them warm. Many are equipped with extras including an adjustable powder-skirt, pit vents and storage pockets for all your gear.

Gore-Tex C-Knit XC Ski Jacket

This GORETEX jacket has all the features you want in a ski jacket. This jacket is extremely lightweight (only 450-550g), highly breathable, moves with you, and repels both wind and rain. This jacket has a pair of super-lightweight thumbs loops which help keep your sleeves in place when you are punching through several feet of snow.


Ortovox Piz Boe Insulated Men's Ski Jacket

The Piz Boe insulated jacket is filled with a lofty and thick wool blend, which is extremely warm. The interior is wicking and helps to keep the jacket dry.

All of the components, such as the collar, hem and hood are stretchy to ensure that movement is not restricted. They are also water-resistant and breatheable, and the jacket includes a removable cape designed for helmets.

Bibs for Skiing

There are many different options available for ski bibs. However, they tend to fall into three main categories: resort use only, active usage, and mild-weather. Some ski pants are large enough to accommodate several base and middle layers, while other ski bibs fit snugly to suit the shape of the wearer.

Some ski-specific models are more difficult to locate, but most have a design that is streamlined and designed specifically for skiing. Some bibs are slimmed down to improve movement and reduce bulk. Others have removable bib-uppers for extra versatility on the slopes.

Here are some things you should never forget about when traveling.

Traveling can be stressful. You'll often find yourself in situations where you have little time to make decisions. So be prepared to improvise.

You may be stuck someplace for hours or days, or even months. If you have a plan, you'll be able to provide food, water, shelter and a place to rest. But, if not, you might have the need to improvise.

In these situations, you will probably need to rely upon what you know best. You will have to rely on your instincts and experience to make quick decisions.

Sometimes you don't have a choice. There are many situations where you might be left without cell or gas service, or even robbed. These situations will require you to quickly adapt to the situation.

The key is to keep calm, stay focused and act decisively. Don't panic. Instead, be calm and focus on what you can do.

You can, for example, choose the direction you want to travel if you get lost in the woods. If you are hungry, you can eat mushrooms or berries. Rainwater or melting snow are good options if you're feeling thirsty.

If you are tired, you can take a break. It's okay to bundle up if it is cold. If it is wet, you have the option to change clothes. No matter what you do, it will make you feel better to stay positive.


What can I put in my suitcase for travel?

You should always own at least two pairs. You should have at least two pairs of shoes for your daily walks in the city, and one pair to take on vacation.

Make sure you have enough clothes to cover both. When you fly, it is essential to bring enough clothing.

It's a good idea to bring along some clothes for longer stays. You won't feel awkward when you shop for new clothes.

Comfortable shoes are essential for those who take the bus or train. You'll also need to bring a spare set if you are driving.

Also, remember to bring plenty of toiletries, such as shampoo, toothpaste, moisturizer, deodorant and toothpaste.

Last but not the least, you will need a flashlight as well as insect repellent, sunscreens, sunglasses, a hat, first aid kits, and sunblock.

Do not forget to pack all your essentials in one bag. By doing so, you can save time and space.

Finally, remember to bring a small towel or washcloth. They'll come in handy when you shower after a long day of sightseeing.
