Accessories for Skiing

Which Ski Accessories Are Essential for Your Skiing Holiday?

Preparing for a skiing holiday can be daunting because of the sheer volume of clothing and ski gear that needs to be packed. Do not forget the smaller accessories that can greatly simplify your holiday experience.

For skiers who own their own kit, some of the most sought-after parts include ski straps to keep your skis together and locks to prevent theft. Many skiers prefer purchasing ski boots as their initial investment, and they are keen to maintain them well. Ski boot heaters and dryers help eliminate moisture and preserve the liners. Additionally, toe and heel caps can be changed for safety when the original ones become worn.

Hand and Foot Warmers: Your Cold-Day Saviours

The hands and feet tend to be the first areas to chill on frigid days or when you've underestimated the number of ski layers needed. Cold extremities can seriously diminish your enjoyment of the day, so carrying heating pads in pockets or backpacks is a smart move.

Single-use hand warmers can remain effective for up to 12 hours, with many varieties heating up by snapping the pad or merely upon exposure to air. The same applies to foot warmers, though activating them is best done indoors, as it involves removing your ski boots.

Besides caring for hands and feet, don’t forget your skis. Regular waxing and tuning can enhance your skiing experience on the slopes. Discover our range of ski care items - Ski Maintenance.
