6 essentials for your ski backpack

Heading on a ski holiday soon? Wondering, "What am I forgetting?" We've got a few suggestions for accessories that will definitely come in handy.

Spare socks for evening rides

You've probably packed a pair of socks, but imagine this: after a great day on the slopes, you decide to join some Après ski fun. After a few hot drinks, your friends suggest an evening session.

One hitch – your socks are already wet, and the night temperatures are too low to risk freezing your feet. This is where an extra pair of ski socks comes to the rescue.

Stylish and "phunkshunal"

We must admit, we're obsessed with neckwarmers! This striped series from Phunkshun not only looks incredibly cool but is also practical. Wear them as beanies, around your neck, or as face masks. Plus, you'll earn some style points.

Don’t have goggles? Get some!

Some people underestimate the importance of goggles and skip investing in a pair. However, goggles are essential for a comfortable day on the slopes.

Conditions can change rapidly, and you don’t want to cut your ski day short because you can't navigate through the snowflakes.

A great option is these Out Of Open ski goggles with a photochromic lens that adapts to varying light conditions.

Protection is paramount!

We can't stress it enough – always prioritize protection! A ski helmet is crucial if you value your safety! This Smith Mission helmet is affordably priced and features the innovative Mips technology, which safeguards your head from multi-directional impacts.

A beanie for "post-helmet" hair

Speaking of helmets, are you familiar with that feeling of seeing your hair look ridiculous after removing it? That’s why a beanie is perfect to pull out of your backpack and slip on your head ASAP. Check out the Black Crows Calva beanies – you'll likely find your preferred color.

Boost your speed and stay eco-friendly

Sometimes, all you need is a speed boost, and wax tape is a quick and easy solution. Since we all love the mountains, opt for eco-friendly Optiwax, which is kind to nature and perfect for alpine skis.
