Ski gear in Aldi Monday 27th

Can see non skiers buying this so the kids can go sledging on snow days

Unless you are outside queuing before opening, you will not get a sniff

Well tbh I was judging this before I even saw it, BUT after looking at the pics it doesn't seem too bad. If I was starting out I'd be steaming straight into this.... Put clothing prices in

Into prospective when there selling 100% merino thermals for £30. I've just spent £100 on icebreaker... Hmmmm can there really be any difference? If so £70's worth....

All the branded merino that I have come across is made in China. My merinos, are by Kühl, mountainlife, and a couple of icebreakers, all made in China.
If they are not merino, your friends will be avoiding you by Thursday......

Went along and had a look what the gear was like.

I think I was the only person there who had ever been skiing.

Said it all for me.

Just been down to check out their gear -

Was very impressed by the quality of the roll-neck tops and ski-tops. Bought a couple each of these. Also bought a set of the thermal underwear which I have not tried on yet, but seems to be reasonable quality.

For the price, this stuff does seem to be very good - it might not have a spider on it or say Salomon on the label but for base layers, its great.

Yes you would have to be seen in Aldi though ) but as long as you can bear to fight your way through the nutters and the chavs, I would reccommend it - the clothes at least. Not so sure about the goggles/helmets etc but the base layer clothing seems good.

If anyone asks tell them your wearing Aldidas, that will confuse them. :D
