Properly looking after your ski wear means that you'll be able to maintain it for years to come and ensure all the features work as well as the day you bought it. Clean ski wear not only looks better but it also performs better on the slopes. We created this guide to inform you on the best and easiest ways to clean and take care of your ski wear.

The first place to start when it comes to washing your ski wear is to inspect it for any heavier or more noticable stains. You can pre-treat those before putting the entire jacket in for a wash. Before using any kind of stain remover, it's best to try it on an inconspicious section of the clothing to ensure it doesn't effect the material or make the colour run.

Once you've removed any of the big stains, it's time to make sure all the pockets are empty and close any pockets, zips etc. This makes sure that your ski wear doesn't get snagged on itself.

You can then put your ski wear in the washing machine on a gentle wash and with the correct style of fabric cleanser. When washing, make sure that whatever else you put in the washing machine is made from a similar material. Different types of fabric need to be washed in different tempertures or with different cleaning products. For example, wash your ski jackets and ski trousers together, then your fleece/mid layers, base layers etc can be washed together.

Once the ski wear items have gone through the wash, they can then start to be dried. Air drying is the safest and easiest option, however if you have items of clothing that has a down style filling, then they can be put into the tumble dryer with a few tennis balls, that will help to re-fluff out the filling.
