A trend that’s becoming more and more widespread in resorts: instead of buying ski clothing you use for just a week a year, some companies are offering you the chance to hire them. This service allows you to travel light, try out ski clothes that are properly adapted to the mountain environment, and ski in all the latest fashion trends!
Has your toddler already grown three shoe sizes and 10cm since last winter? Has your ski jacket had its day? Do you dream of skiing in the latest outfit? Why not hire your ski clothes! It’s a great way to look stylish on the slopes, as well as discovering new ranges of chic, high-tech products at great prices. Our recommendations.
For many years, Vosges’ Labellemontagne ski shop in La Bresse has been offering skiers the Antiglagla pack: a ski clothing hire package for warm, cosy skiing! From a half-day to a week, for children over the age of 3 years and adults, flexibility is the watchword of this attentive, considerate brand.
For an all-inclusive ski clothing + equipment + package, allow 67.20€ per day for adults and 53.10€ for under 13s. It gets the thumbs up from us!
All new in the Alps: Ski-Chic.com is a website specialising in ski clothing hire! It’s a hassle-free travel concept: pack light, with no need to buy new ski clothes for growing children every year. As a bonus, you’ll look stylish in comfortable clothes from all the latest collections.
How does it work? You book your ski clothing and accessories online at www.ski-chic.com; a package containing your ski clothing will be delivered directly to your resort accommodation before your arrival.
In 2017 - 2018, the service will be available in La Plagne and select resorts in Les 3 Vallées before expanding to other resorts in the Alps in the coming years.
From 99.90€ per week.
