Adult Ski Suit - where to buy in UK
 
Can anyone reccommend any shops or web sites in the UK that sell one piece
adult ski suits.

My Berghaus suit is quite old now, and Berghaus themselves no longer make a
replacement.

You'll find that almost no-one make one-pice suits any more. Why would
you want one?

Maybe he's after a lycra competition suit?

Not true - they had one piece outfits in Decathlon when I was there in
November

Over the last couple of seasons there have been a few one-piece suits
come out for the painfully hip. They tend to be more of a boiler-suit
style and I've only seen 3 people carry the look off.

I think Nike ACG might do some, or they might have been pre-production
samples. Not sure.

I like the one I have but it is getting old. It is harder to loose anything
put in inside pockets, and if you fall in deep snow there are fewer entry
points for the snow.

But then I liked our suitcases that did not have wheels and were easy to
carry, put in a lift etc.

Ah well, the key to that is, of course, to avoid the falling over :-)

OIC, you're just a luddite. Welcome to the club.

I take it you've not yet been caught on the slopes with a gippy tummy
and only a hole-in-the-ground toilet available.

There are some very Baggy snowboarding one pieces about (the sort that isn't
the same shape as your body at all), but they look far worse than a 70's
nordica suit does now.
