How To Layer for Skiing?
Stay comfortable, regardless of weather or activity intensity. Layer right and unlock your freeride spirit.
LAYERING ESSENTIALS
Baselayer: Acts as a second skin, wicking away moisture. Midlayer: Transports moisture, trapping air for warmth. Insulation: Retains heat. Choose synthetic for high-intensity or damp conditions and down for moderate activity in cooler, dry conditions. Shell: Your shield against the elements, balancing protection with breathability. Belay: A heat reinforcement layer for breaks or rapid weather changes.
2-LAYER INSULATED SHELL vs 3-LAYER SHELL
Both provide full wind and water protection. 2-layer combines the insulation and shell layers in one piece, meaning less layering, perfect for consistent conditions and low-mid activity. 3-layer means full flexibility and is perfect for diverse weather and changing activity levels.
Explore our layering suggestions for different skiing adventures like Freeride, Freeride Touring, Freeride Resort.
Freeride
For the thrill of conquering challenging slopes and the rush of skiing through untracked powder, freeride skiing embodies the spirit of adventure in rugged, natural terrain.
We recommend a moisture-wicking base and mid-layer, combined with a synthetic insulation layer, and a highly breathable and durable 3-layer shell. Don´t forget your belay layer!
Freeride touring
For the serenity of untouched nature, the physical challenge of exploring off-piste terrain. Versatile layering, adaptable for ascents, breaks, descents and rapidly changing weather conditions is key.
We recommend a moisture-wicking base and mid-layer, combined with a synthetic insulation layer, and a highly breathable and ventilated 3-layer shell. Don´t forget your belay layer!
All Mountain
For the ones that do it all. When the entire mountain is your playground, from groomed slopes to backcountry, all-mountain skiing is all about versatility.
We recommend a layering system that can be adapted to all conditions. Start with a moisture-wicking base and mid-layer, then combine them with a synthetic or down insulation layer, and a highly breathable and ventilated 3-layer shell.
Freeride Resort
Unlock your freeride spirit with less effort, and combine on and off-piste resort skiing. Seek adventures and new lines in ungroomed powder snow, over cliffs, tree riding. Lift. Ski. Repeat.
Freeride resort skiing means less high-intense activity start with a wicking base, insulating mid-layers, and a waterproof, breathable shell.
Scandinavian Resort
The skiing season in Scandinavia can be unpredictable, with temperatures dropping far south of -10° and conditions ranging from clear, sunny days to heavy snowfall and strong winds.
We recommend a moisture-wicking base and mid-layer and a 2-layer insulated shell for less layering. When the temperature drops too far south add an insulation layer of down.
Alp Resort
Experience world-class skiing on all levels, stunning views, and diverse terrain. With temperatures often ranging from -10°C - 5°C, big potion of sunny days and great snow conditions.
We recommend a moisture-wicking base and mid-layer (or a mid-layer hybrid if needed), soft shell pants, and a 3-layer shell jacket.
