My DS will be going on his first school skiing trip at Easter and we have been given a list of stuff he needs. However, we are not a skiing family and I have no idea about which brands are good, except the über-famous celeb ones that cost thousands.
To get him ready we have done a few sessions at the Snowdome in Tamworth, which has been awesome, and I kitted him out with sale stuff from Mountain Warehouse, but the clothes (especially gloves) always come back soaking and freezing inside. On a school trip I cannot imagine him turning everything inside out and drying it each night on a radiator (nor any teenager).
Being honest, we are not skint and I am happy to spent several hundred on his kit so long as we get quality to reflect the price.
So in short I would be super grateful for any tips for good quality brands we should look at, and also retailers where there may be deals to be done.
Thank you!
