You will have a lot of choice when choosing your ski equipment. Clothing for skiing and snowboarding can range from full body suit with long sleeves and overalls to outfit of two parts, which includes ski pants and specialski jacket. The cloths variety predisposes to a significantly greater amount of personal style, but in any case the style should not be at the expense of clothing quality. Give yourself a fun and enjoyable day on the slopes choosing a ski equipment that is easy to dress and keep your body dry and warm while skiing.

Choose the main/base layer: base layer clothing is called the clothing that you put directly on your skin and whose role is to prevent moisture ingress. Although this layer can be very useful because it provides additional insulation of the body, its main function is to absorb sweat from the body to keep skin dry and thus protect you from cold while ride a lift. This means that you can buy a close-fitting underwear of lightweight, synthetic fabrics such as polyester. Cotton underwear is not advisable in this case because it does not dry quickly and does not insulate when wet.

Ski pants
One of the things that make pants for skiing different from other waterproof pants, is the ankle cuff which is large enough to allow the upper end of ski boots to get under them and thus ensure maximum water protection. Often pants are with attached gaiters which protect your feet from snow entering into the shoes. An important element of the ski pants is the presence of  zippers for ventilation. The degree of  fabric water resistance is the major criterion for its price. If you are a regular skier and spend a lot ofl time on the ski slopes is worthwhile to invest in trousers with higher impermeability, because the pans are exposed to the most intense wetting. Prices of ski pants depend on the degree of tapped seams as well.

Finish your equipment with choosing of warm ski gloves and a warm hat for your head. Choose a high-quality pair of waterproof gloves. It is better to choose gloves that can tighten around the wrist and thus protect your hands from snow entering inside. Hat should be large enough to cover your ears and protect you from the wind during the descent on steep mountain slopes. It is better to find hat which is not too bulky because it can not come under your helmet , which is very important for your safety. If the weather is harsh and cold, it is better to take a ski mask that will warm your face and will protect you from cold temperatures.
