I just wear a pair of boxers on the bottom half and a t-shirt on the top half, under salopets and jacket. Good solid boots are a must for walking around the resorts especially at night as the snow that is nice a fluffy during the day on paths/ roads / tracks will freeze and if you're only in trainers / shoes you will be more like a snowboarder and spend most of your time on your ar*e!!!
See you on the piste!!!

Slippers !! :lol:
Absolutely essential.
Nothing worse than getting back to the ski room, exhausted, aching, tired, hot/cold (delete for season) or even drun* from the apres ski (obviously talking about others here - not J2'ers, non of whom would ever risk spoiling their skiing by over indulgance) etc etc etc
And after struggling to get those d*** boots off having to bend down to tie shoe laces or pull on shoes/boots.
:thumbup:
Top tip this one.

Don't mix synthetics and natural fibres - the breathe at different rates. Avoid cotton at all costs - as said above it doesn't keep you warm or dry.

Thermal, thin fleece and or thick fleece, shell.
