Protective Clothing for Snow and Ski Safety in New Zealand

Staying warm and protected is essential when skiing or snowboarding in New Zealand’s alpine conditions. Our range of protective clothing is designed to enhance comfort, prevent injury, and support performance across all snow sports and mountain environments.

Layering for Comfort and Safety

Proper layering helps regulate body temperature and keeps you dry. Start with thermal base layers to manage moisture, add mid-layers for insulation, and finish with outer layers that block wind and water. Look for breathable fabrics to prevent overheating during activity.

Impact Protection

Specialised snow gear like padded shorts and impact vests help protect hips, spine, and tailbone during falls. These are especially useful for snowboarders or beginner skiers where impact risk is higher. Lightweight padding materials allow movement while reducing injury risk.

Designed for NZ Conditions

Many garments include wind-blocking fabrics, waterproof coatings, and reflective elements for visibility. Adjustable fits, secure closures, and reinforced panels improve durability and comfort on the slopes or backcountry trails.

Summary

Whether you're heading to Mt Ruapehu, Cardrona, or a backcountry snow trip, quality protective clothing makes all the difference. Explore the full range of protective snow clothing to stay safe and warm on your next adventure.
