From the slopes to après ski, winter days in the mountains are equal parts thrill and endurance. Whether you are carving confident turns as a seasoned pro or easing your way down gentle green runs for the first time, one thing matters more than most people realise. Your kit.
Cold, damp gear can turn an epic day into a long one very quickly. Staying warm, dry and comfortable is not just about what you wear on the hill, but how well that gear is cared for. Snow, grime, sweat and everyday dirt slowly degrade performance fabrics, robbing them of breathability and water repellency. The good news is that with the right care, your skiwear can perform like new all season long.
Here are our top four ski wear care products to keep your kit working hard, from first lift to last run and straight through to après ski.
1. Tech Wash®
All best practice aftercare routines start with a proper clean. Tech Wash® is specially formulated to clean synthetic and waterproof outerwear without damaging the technical coatings that keep moisture out. Unlike regular detergents, it removes dirt and impurities while revitalising existing water repellency.
Clean fabric breathes better, sheds water more effectively and feels more comfortable to wear. If your jacket or pants are looking dull, feeling heavy or no longer performing the way they should, a wash with Tech Wash® is the essential first step.
Perfect for ski jackets, pants, insulated layers and shells.
2. TX.Direct®
When washing alone is not enough, TX.Direct® steps in. This treatment restores durable water repellency to synthetic ski wear, helping water bead and roll off the surface once again. At the same time, it maintains breathability so sweat vapour can escape, preventing that cold, clammy feeling inside your jacket.
TX.Direct® is ideal for gear that has seen a few seasons of action or long days in wet snow. Use it after cleaning to bring tired outerwear back to life and keep you dry through changing mountain conditions.
Best used on jackets and pants once their water repellency starts to fade.
3. Glove Proof
Cold, wet hands are a fast track to an early finish. Gloves take a beating on the slopes, constantly exposed to snow, ice and abrasion. Glove Proof is a highly effective sponge on waterproofer designed for leather, synthetic, combination and padded gloves.
It helps prevent water absorption while maintaining grip and flexibility, so you can keep control of poles, zips and bindings. Regular treatment extends the life of your gloves and keeps your hands warmer and drier throughout the day.
Essential for ski gloves, mitts and snowboarding gloves.
4. Visor Proof
Clear vision is not a luxury on the mountain; it is a safety essential. Visor Proof is a high-performance spray-on rain repellent for snow goggles and visors. It enhances visibility by causing water to bead and disperse quickly, helping you see clearly in wet snow, sleet or variable conditions.
A quick application before heading out can make a noticeable difference when the weather rolls in, or temperatures fluctuate.
Ideal for ski goggles, helmet visors and snowmobile visors.
Look after your kit, and it will look after you
Winter days in the hills demand a lot from your gear. With the right care, your ski wear will keep you warmer, drier and more comfortable, run after run. A simple maintenance routine not only improves performance but also extends the life of your favourite pieces, season after season.
From nervous first-timers finding their feet to seasoned riders chasing fresh lines, well-cared-for kit means fewer distractions and more time enjoying the mountain. And that makes the après ski taste even better
