6 essentials for your ski backpack

Heading on a ski holiday soon? Are you packing and wondering - ‘What am I forgetting’? We have a few suggestions for accessories that will be quite beneficial.

Extra pair of socks for those night rides

You probably already have a pair of socks, but consider this scenario: after a great day on the slopes, you head for some Après ski fun; after a few hot drinks, your friends suggest an evening session.

One problem - your socks are already wet, and night temperatures are too low to risk freezing your feet. This is where an extra pair of ski socks comes in handy.

Cool and "phunkshunal"

We won’t lie, we are crazy about neckwarmers! This striped series from Phunkshun not only looks incredibly cool but is also practical. You can wear them as beanies, around your neck, or as face masks, adding some style points.

If you don’t have goggles, get some!

Some people underestimate goggles and choose not to invest in a pair. But goggles are essential for a comfortable day on the slopes.

Conditions can change quickly, and you don’t want to end your ski day because you can’t navigate through the snowflakes.

A good option is these Out Of Open ski goggles with a photochromic lens that adjusts to various light conditions.

Protection is everything!

We won’t stop emphasizing it - remember protection! A ski helmet is a must if you care about your head! This Smith Mission helmet is affordably priced and features revolutionary Mips technology, which protects your head from multi-directional impacts.

A beanie for "after-helmet" hair

Speaking of helmets, do you know that feeling when you realize how ridiculous your hair looks after taking off the helmet? That’s why a beanie is perfect to pull out of your backpack and put on your head ASAP. Check out the Black Crows Calva beanies - you should find your color.

Be the fastest and eco-friendly

Sometimes all you need is a little extra speed, which is why having wax tape is a quick and easy fix. And since we all love the mountains, choose eco-friendly Optiwax, which is perfect for alpine skis and won’t harm nature.
