Ski Clothes

Hello,

I%26#39;ll be having a go at skiing for the first time, nothing too adventurous.

1. Pls advise what are the basic clothes one should wear for skiing?

2. What should I look for when purchasing ski clothes?

3. Where can I get ski clothes, preferably at bargain prices?

4. I%26#39;ll be visiting Innsbruck, Going %26amp; Achenkirch. Which would be the

best place to get the ski clothes (in terms of easy availability,

bargain prices and reasonable quality)

Nothing too expensive as I%26#39;ll not be going on a ski holiday every

year.

Many thanks for your response. Cheers!!

The Ski clothes will be the cheapest in Innsbruck - look at shops like Hervis, Sports Experts, ...the concierge of your hotel will help you for sure.

But have you also thought of renting skiing clothes? It is possible in some sport shops in skiing villages. Maybe contact the reception of your hotels in Achenkirch and Going or the tourist offices and ask in advance.

Hi Ulrike,

I was under the impression that whilst ski equipment can be rented, ski clothes can%26#39;t.

Ok, I%26#39;ll ask the hotels I%26#39;m going to be staying in and the tourist office.

Tks for the suggestion.
