Hit the slopes fully kitted out
A ski trip needs gear most holidays do not — layered thermals, goggles, hand warmers, high-altitude sun protection — and missing one piece can cut a day short. This builder produces a categorized ski packing list sized to your trip and tailored to whether you bring your own gear, plan après-ski nights, use the spa, or are still learning.
How it works
The tool organises everything into on-mountain clothing, gear and lift essentials, off-mountain and evening wear, sun-skin-and-first-aid, and documents and tech. It builds the on-mountain layers around the three-layer system — wicking base, insulating mid-layer, waterproof shell — and scales base layers, ski socks, and evening outfits to your trip length.
Toggles adapt the rest: own gear adds skis or board, boots, poles, and a padded bag (plus an airline-rules reminder), while renting swaps in a booking reminder. Beginner adds wrist guards and impact shorts for the inevitable falls. Après-ski adds smart-casual outfits and evening shoes, and spa adds swimwear and flip-flops. The sun-and-skin section is deliberately full because altitude UV and reflective snow make sunburn and windburn a real risk even in the cold.
Tips and example
For a 7-day trip with your own gear, après-ski, and the spa, you get full thermal layering, a few days of base layers and ski socks, goggles and helmet, skis and boots in a padded bag, evening outfits and swimwear, high-SPF sun care, and your documents including winter-sports insurance — around 45 items across five categories. Pack the gear bag carefully and confirm your airline’s ski-carriage allowance in advance, then copy the checklist and tick items off as the cases fill.
