What Are Ski Suits?
A ski suit is also called a snow suit. Ski suits cover most of the body, as they are basically a hooded jacket and a pair of pants. Warm, inner padding as well as an outer, windproof and waterproof nylon shell are the main features of a ski suit. Men’s, women’s and children’s ski or snow suits are available in many different colors as well as styles. For instance, some of the jackets of ski suits have a cinched-in, or drawstring, waist while other models feature a shorter, bomber jacket look. Although the jacket and pants of a ski suit are padded, the fit skims the body rather than covering it tightly. Skiers and others must be able to move or walk comfortably in the suit. Also, ski suits are made to be placed over layers of clothing. Thermal underwear, plus a sweater and slacks are typical clothing items worn under ski or snow suits.
