What Ski Accessories Do I Need on My Ski Holiday?

Preparing for a ski holiday can be daunting due to the extensive clothing and ski gear you need to pack. Don’t forget the smaller ski accessories that can make your holiday more convenient.

For skiers with their own equipment, some of the most popular items to get are ski straps to keep your skis together and ski locks to prevent theft. Many skiers opt to purchase ski boots as their first investment, and they want to maintain them well. Ski boot heaters and dryers help eliminate moisture from the ski boots and preserve the liners. Toe and heel caps for ski boot soles can be replaced for safety once the original ones are worn down.

Hand Warmers and Foot Warmers Can Save the Day

Hands and feet are usually the first to freeze on cold days or when you’ve misjudged the number of ski layers you need. Cold hands and feet can significantly reduce the enjoyment of your ski day, so carrying heating pads in your pocket or backpack is a smart move.

Single-use hand warmers can often stay warm for up to 12 hours, and many types generate heat simply by cracking the heat pad or through air exposure. The same process applies to foot warmers, though it's best to activate them indoors as it requires removing your ski boots.

Besides taking care of your hands and feet, remember to maintain your skis. Regular waxing and tuning will make your skis perform wonderfully on the slopes. Check out our products for ski care - Ski Maintenance.
