Luxury Ski and Snowboard Apparel for Outerwear, Base Layers, and Après-Ski

By Maya Kachroo-Levine on December 07, 2020

Not sure which we want more, the Perfect Moment ‘70s-inspired snowsuit or the checkered Off-White ski jacket.

Ski clothes are really the pinnacle of winter fashion. From Armani outerwear (we always fawn over their EA7 line in the winter) to Perfect Moment houndstooth snowsuits, there is no better celebration of the ski season than luxury, high-fashion winter apparel. We believe in ski clothes for every cold-weather occasion, from après-ski moments by the fire to essential base layers to the struth-worthy ski pants and jackets. Here, our favorite 24 pieces of luxury ski clothes—including outerwear, base wear, accessories, and après-ski outfits—for the season.

Perfect Moment Snowsuit

Is there anything more enticing than a high-fashion ‘70s-inspired ski suit moment? We think not. Perfect Moment is bringing gorgeous prints to this season’s ski outerwear. This white Tignes hooded, belted number with accent stripes is just the beginning. 

To buy: $950, net-a-porter.com

Armani EA7 Waterproof Ski Jacket and Ski Trousers 

EA7 is Emporio Armani’s glam sportswear line, and while each piece is exciting in its own right, we love their ski and snowboard-specific apparel. For a men’s jacket and ski pant set, this polished waterproof jacket paired with the padded thermal trousers, both made from Toray Dermizax fabric, tops the list of must-have winter fashion. 

To buy: $725, armani.com (jacket); $375, armani.com (trousers)

Rossignol High-Shine Ankle Boots

Rossignol has really skyrocketed from a classic ski purveyor to a coveted source for luxury winterwear. These gorgeous leather boots with retro red laces and patterned interiors have Farfetch’s stamp of approval; they’re the perfect boots to slip on in the early morning and show up to the mountain in before changing into your ski boots.

To buy: $451, farfetch.com

Courtesy Lululemon

Lululemon Polar Shield Parka

Lululemon has always made chic yoga clothes, but thanks in large part to their high-end Lululemon Lab and their skiing fan base, they’ve amped up their production of truly luxurious ski clothes. This Polar Shield Parka is the it-coat of the year, protecting skiers and snowboarders through the iciest winds and pairing beautifully with statement ski pants. 

To buy: $1,200, lululemon.com

Off-White Check Ski Puffer Jacket

Off-White shines in every season, but their street style is particularly well-suited for unique, high-fashion winterwear. This checkered ski jacket is capital-f Fashion made for luxe Aspen moments on and off the slopes.

To buy:  $2,910, farfetch.com

Kombi Gore-tex Timeless Gloves

You can’t mess around when it comes to good ski gloves. They don’t just keep your hands warm, they protect your hands if you take a fall. These Gore-tex Kombi gloves are classic, offering the best protection and excellent insulation.

To buy: $76 (originally $95), mec.ca

North Face Apex Gloves 

These gloves feel light while still offering plenty of insulation—and the grip provides great traction. The fact that they’d look great with one of the Perfect Moment ski suits doesn’t hurt, either.

To buy: $55, thenorthface.com

Courtesy Far Fetch

Perfect Moment Houndstooth Ski Overalls

The moment you’ve been waiting for: the Perfect Moment houndstooth ski overalls. They say a picture’s worth a thousand words, so we’ll let the image speak for itself. One word: need.

To buy: $599, farfetch.com

Courtesy Mate The Label

Mate the Label Thermal Crew Neck and Wide Leg Pant

Sweatsuits are de rigueur, and thermal sets are a perfect ski-inspired exploration of that trend. Mate the Label, specializing in clean, organic neutrals, has a thermal crew neck long sleeve and wide-leg pant that is an essential fireside outfit after a day on the slopes.

To buy: $88, matethelabel.com (top); $138, matethelabel.com (bottom)

Carolyn Rowan Chalet Hat

From the trendy block letters to the soft-as-butter cashmere material, this Carolyn Rowan hat, sold on Bandier, is the definition of alpine-chic. It’s such a gorgeous accessory, you might want to save it for après-ski drinks, rather than wearing it on the slopes. 

To buy: $210, bandier.com

Courtesy Bandier

White + Warren Pop Top Glove

These White + Warren camel and cream gloves fall into the same category as the Chalet hat—they’re irresistibly chic but fall into the category of off-mountain fashion. Oh, and they’re 100% cashmere.

To buy: $125, bandier.com

Courtesy Lululemon

Lululemon Welterweight Hoodie and Sweats

Men’s sweatsuits haven’t taken off quite as much as women’s this year—and we’re looking to rectify that as soon as possible. This Welterweight loungewear set from Lululemon is subtle, athletic, and extremely warm. It’s perfect for a post-ski yoga class or a cozy spa evening.

To buy: $89 (originally $148), lululemon.com (top) ; $128, lululemon.com (bottom)

Courtesy Canada Goose

Canada Goose Workmen Gloves

Canada Goose is, of course, a go-to for well-made winter apparel, but winter jackets and ski clothes isn’t all they do. They’ve branched out into equally warm leather items that are perfect for a luxury event in Vail. These après-ski men’s leather gloves would be a perfect complement to the Rossignol leather boots.

To buy: $125, canadagoose.com

Vuarnet Air Sunglasses

Ski sunglasses are honestly one of the best high-fashion mountain accessories. These Vuarnet air sunglasses, made in Italy, have tinted lenses perfect for tempering the reflection coming off the snow when you’re enjoying an afternoon beer mountainside.

To buy: $345, farfetch.com

Courtesy Lululemon

Lululemon Wunder Under Aerify Jacquard Tights

Lululemon’s Wunder Under tights are a perfect ski layer under snowpants. The high-performance fabric moves with you through the sharpest turns, and they fit seamlessly under your clothes without cutting off your circulation like the long johns of your youth. The new Wunder Under seasonal design is alpine-inspired and especially chic, too.

To buy: $98, lululemon.com

Courtesy Far Fetch

Moncler Grenoble Performance Trousers

Moncler’s performance trousers can work under ski pants but are also gorgeous pants to wear on the slopes by themselves for springtime skiing and snowboarding. The Moncler Grenoble line produces perfect winter essentials year after year, and these light blue pants live up to the stellar Grenoble reputation.

To buy: $490, farfetch.com

Tommy John SleekHeat Crew Neck Top

Tommy John has had a big year, fast becoming the must-have luxury men’s underwear. Their ultra-soft fabric translates perfectly into a well-insulated base layer, especially with their SleekHeat technology. 

To buy: $55, tommyjohn.com

Smartwool Merino Base Layer

For the coldest months of the season, skiers and snowboarders need Merino wool. Men can’t go wrong with Smartwool’s bottoms, which fit snugly under snowpants and are plush and cozy, yet breathable.

To buy: $100, nordstrom.com

Sweaty Betty Ski Sweater and Leggings

For the woman who loves a sweatsuit or matching loungewear set, this base layer sweater and legging combo from Sweaty Betty is soft and exceptionally Instagrammable. Wear this under your EA7 snowsuit and you’ll be an absolute alpine showstopper.
