Ski School: How to Layer for the Season

First Tracks: Ready for the Slopes

Starting your day on the slopes means facing unpredictable weather, so your layers need to work together to keep you warm, dry, and comfortable. Begin with breathable base layers, which are essential for regulating body temperature and wicking moisture. The Long Sleeve Basic Training Top and the Essential Long Johns, crafted from a lightweight and insulating fabric, make an excellent layer. Pair it with one of our durable Team Sweaters, which are designed to keep you comfortable without restricting movement.

To top it off, our Snow Ridge Parka Jacket; an absolute must. Our parkas are built with weather-resistant fabrics to protect against snow and wind, offering reliable warmth while maintaining a classic, rugged style. Add a vest for a flexible layer of insulation, and long johns under your ski pants for that extra barrier against the chill.

Après-Ski: The Chalet Look

After an adrenaline-filled day on the mountain, it’s time to relax in warmth and style. Layering soft and comfortable pieces is the perfect way to transition from the slopes to the chalet. The Eiger Mountain Rust Shirt, with its rugged design and heavyweight cotton fabric, is a versatile choice that works as an outer layer or mid-layer, adding a timeless, rustic touch to your après-ski outfit.

Pair with one of our soft Takin Fleece for extra warmth. Designed to lock in heat without feeling bulky, these layers are perfect for lounging by the fire while enjoying a hot drink or swapping stories with friends.

Mountain Trails: Exploring the Outdoors

For outdoor adventures away from the slopes, layering for mobility and warmth is crucial. Start with an essentials vest and a warm wool roll neck to keep your core insulated. Our Submariner makes for a great layer, using natural technology to trap heat whilst allowing for movement. Pair them with our Shigoto Pants, which are both functional and stylish, featuring multiple pockets and a comfortable fit for long hikes.

Finish your outfit with a pair of Valley Boots, made to withstand rough terrains while providing all-day comfort. These boots are crafted from premium leather and durable soles, ensuring traction and support even in snowy conditions. Don’t forget to add accessories like hats, scarves, and gloves for complete protection against the cold.

Lodge Lounging: Fireside Evenings

As the day winds down, there’s nothing better than warming up in knitwear by the fire. Our Alpine Cardigan is a classic choice, crafted from wool that offers exceptional warmth and a timeless look. Wear over a classic pocket tee for a comfortable, layered outfit. Our knitwear is not only designed for comfort but also for durability, ensuring these pieces will be a staple in your winter wardrobe for years to come.
