Hi, is it possible to rent ski clothing (pants, jackets, gloves) in the La Thuile, Aosta-Valley region
(for a family of 4 for a 7 day period)?

Didn't see any clothing hire when I was there a couple of years ago. There are a couple of ski hire shops in town, only one of which I can remember: Berthod Sport (http://www.berthodsport.it/). Loads of articles on J2Ski about starting skiing and clothing. If you have friends that ski, try borrowing some gear from them. No need for a specialised ski jacket - wear layers, with a waterproof outer. And you should be able to pick up some gloves without spending a fortune. Good luck.

Layer up and you will be fine. Also, you can pick up second hand items very cheaply online.
