6 essentials for your ski backpack
Planning a ski holiday soon? Are you packing and wondering - ‘What am I forgetting’? Well, we have some suggestions for accessories that will only benefit you.
Extra pair of socks for those night rides
Chances are you already have a pair of socks, but consider this scenario: after a great day on the slopes, you head for some Après ski action; after a few hot drinks, your friends suggest an evening session.
One problem - your socks are already wet and night temperatures are quite low, risking freezing your feet. This is where your extra pair of ski socks comes to the rescue.
Cool and "phunkshunal"
We won’t lie, we are crazy about neckwarmers! This striped series from Phunkshun not only looks extremely cool but is also practical. You can wear them as beanies, around your neck, or as face masks. Plus, you gain 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 if you want a comfortable day on the slopes.
Conditions can often change pretty quickly and you don’t want to end the ski day because you cannot navigate your way through the snowflakes.
A good option is these Out Of Open ski goggles that have a photochromic lens that adjusts to various light conditions.
Protection is everything!
We won’t get tired of repeating it - remember protection! A ski helmet is a must if you care about your brain! This Smith Mission helmet comes at a sweet price point and features the 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 of realizing how ridiculous your hair looks after taking off the helmet? That is why a beanie is the perfect item to get out of your backpack and sneak onto your head ASAP. Check the Black Crows Calva beanies - you should be able to find your color.
Be the fastest and eco-friendly
Sometimes all you need is some extra speed, which is why having wax tape is a quick and easy fix. And since we all love the mountains, go for eco-friendly Optiwax that won’t harm nature and is perfect for alpine skis.
