Whether you are a skier of style or just raring to pick up speed, we have all of your essentials covered for your trip to the mountains this year. From Balenciaga's logo-stamped helmet to a pair of Saint Laurent skis, this is the gear you need right now to make the most of that upcoming skiing holiday.
Saint Laurent skis
Zai is the brand behind some of the lightest, durable and sleek skis on the planet. No wonder the top design dogs at Saint Laurent tapped it for a collaboration.
Balenciaga helmet
And what do you team a pair of Saint Laurent skis with? A just-as-stylish helmet from Balenciaga, of course.
Falke thermals
German brand Falke is our go-to for all things cold weather, especially under layers. This moisture wicking two-layer top keeps the heat in and the cold out, as well as ensuring you're never wet, even if you do take a dive in the snow.
Dior x Poc ski goggles
Dior's dropped its fourth collaboration with Swedish brand POC, and this time its ski goggles have got even better. They come adorned with the CD Diamond signature design by Peter Doig, and have support bands to ensure they fit well on any helmet. An anti-fog and anti-scratch khaki mirrored lens is interchangeable and comes with an alternative lens that is ideal for low-light environments.
Oakley sunglasses
For all things outdoorsy, we routinely head to Oakley. While it's known for its surf gear, the sunglasses brand is also a winner when it comes to the white stuff. The Flak Beta comes with Unobtainium nosepads, which increase grip with perspiration to cancel out any slip.
Garmin watch
The Garmin Forerunner 55 is the easy-to-use GPS smartwatch that'll track where you've been. With the simple press of a button, a user can track their time, distance, speed, pace and heart rate right from their wrist. One for serious skiers.
Perfect Moment jacket
Perfect Moment, the skiwear brand that's collaborated with the likes of Boss, does serious slope-wear. This jacket is filled with premium down which will keep you warm when skiing. The good news? It's super lightweight and won't weight you down.
Moncler fleece
Sure, you've got the jacket, but have you got a decent underlayer that you won't be ashamed to whip out at après-ski?
Prada gloves
Prada's Gore-Tex gloves are stamped with that recognisable Linea Rossa logo and will keep frostbite at bay.
Arc'teryx trousers
These Gore-Tex slacks are packed with a thermal insulation to provide efficient warmth and protection from the elements. What's more, because of its man-made properties, the insulation offers quick dry times, durability and retains warmth when damp.
