Hestra Fall Line 5-Finger Gloves for $120 ($165)
Conquer frigid slopes without sacrificing dexterity this season with these grippy, insulated cowhide gloves from Hestra. On my coldest ski days last year, my beloved Hestra gloves were always the first things I grabbed to put in my boot bag. They also saved my precious fingers when it dipped to -3 degrees and I had to walk my (very energetic) lab mix. The brand’s Fall Line model has a removable liner so that you can adjust the warmth as you please. And unlike other styles, it also comes with wrist leashes.
Burton Lightweight X Base Layer Pants for $39 ($65)
I don my lightweight Burton base layers whenever I want a fun, breathable pop of color under my bibs. Not only does the brand rotate its unique prints seasonally, but it also uses synthetic Bluesign-approved materials so that your mountain apparel is a bit more eco-friendly. Sure, Merino long johns are less stinky, but synthetic base layers are generally more durable and quicker to dry. They’re also a bit more affordable, and when you factor in this 40% off sale from Evo, Burton’s bottoms are a screaming deal.
Patagonia Capilene Midweight Zip-Neck Top for $89 ($99)
Patagonia’s Capilene series is my all-time favorite synthetic base layer system, so much so that I took the brand’s hoody to all 63 national parks back in 2020. This midweight top has the same diamond grid to help trap warm air close to your body while a high, zippered neck keeps drafts out when you need it and vents excess heat when things get steamy. And, as is the norm with Patagonia, this midlayer is bluesign-approved and Fair Trade-certified.
Patagonia Powder Town Jacket for $230 ($349)
With pit zips, an adjustable hood, and security pockets galore, has all the features you’d want from a premium, slope-ready winter coat. A 100% recycled polyester shell with a PFC-free durable water repellent (DWR) finish helps keep the elements out, and a button-up powder skirt helps you stay snow-free if you take a tumble. Its integrated RECCO reflector will also give search and rescue workers a leg up in an emergency.
Patagonia Powder Town Bibs for $145 ($299)
Sometimes ski pants just won’t cut it: You want those trusty bibs to keep snow out and your core cozy. Patagonia’s Powder Town Bibs are not insulated, meaning you can layer up or down as needed throughout the season. They sport a waterproof, breathable membrane that’s designed to shed moisture when you’re earning your turns. They also have a 100% recycled polyester shell with a PFC-free DWR finish, making these bibs an excellent blend of weatherproof and breathable. Zippered hand and bib pockets also make storing small essentials like sunblock and a lift ticket easy.
Zeal Beacon Goggles for $95 ($249)
My all-time favorite eyewear for skiing, Zeal’s polarized , are now on sale. Not only are they compatible with glasses—something my poor vision appreciates—but they’re also designed so that the bottom of the goggles’ frame sits closer to your face, giving a greater vertical periphery for those steep and deep double black diamonds.
Gnu Barrett C3 Snowboard for $420 ($600)
We dubbed the best women’s snowboard of 2025, and you can score last season’s version on sale right now. It’s still designed with the same aggressive C3 camber for high-speed lines and the occasional freestyle romp. It also boasts a medium-firm flex, ideal for pushing your speedy boundaries in intense terrain.
Nitro Alternator Snowboard + Team Snowboard Bindings 2025 for $819($910)
The eye-catching Nitro Alternator was our all-around favorite snowboard last year, designed for riders to hop seamlessly from freestyle terrain to cliff drops and everything in between. As such, it’s a versatile snowboard, with a stiff (but not too stiff) flex rating and standard camber-style rocker. Best of all, if you get the board with bindings, it’s nearly $100 off.
Nordica Enforcer 100 Skis 2024 for $560 ($800)
We’ve reviewed Nordica’s ever-popular Enforcer 100 Skis many times and found it’s a top all-mountain ski. In our past tests, it excelled in messy, variable conditions and remained stable at high speeds on ultra-steep slopes. Our ski experts noted that it’s an excellent pick for intermediate slope stars hoping to up their game or expert skiers who love to explore off-piste.
Blizzard Women’s Phoenix 7.7 Skis + TLT10 Bindings for $360 ($600)
Are you a beginner skier dreaming of moving up from the scuffed edges of rental gear this season? The from Blizzard can help you do that. A 6mm rocker design makes turns and transitions on hard groomers more manageable, and this model’s binding mount points are placed slightly forward for a female-specific center of gravity. The package includes TLT10 Bindings, which can be set with a DIN of 3-10, so you can easily adjust their clawing grip as you graduate to harder turns and gnarlier steeps.
Arc’teryx Sentinel Bib Pants for $560 ($700)
Fear no powder as you send your favorite double blacks this season with Arc’teryx’s high-rise . Made from a waterproof nylon face fabric with Gore-Tex Pro, these pants are designed to keep the wearer dry season after season. Cuffed ankle guards also help keep icy muck out from down below and integrated RECCO reflectors add peace of mind to those committing to back- and side-country expeditions.
