Unibock Shell Jacket
“I’m a big fan of a shell jacket for skiing, so I was thrilled when the CSP announced they were going to have a shell from Helly Hansen as the new uniform jacket. Having a shell allows you so much flexibility to fight against all conditions that the winter can throw at you. Cold: you add a mid-layer; warm: you only use the shell; wind: the shell is windproof; rain: no issue; snow: bring it on! So many pockets to hide your snacks, and the hood is excellent to wear over your helmet for those long, windy/wet snow days. The Sequoia shell is a great modern fit and allows you to have a good range of movement when you need it to.
“Great material, comfortable (even on the chin where the collar is padded with a soft material to protect against a rash); I could wear this shell on every ski day if it weren’t for the white cross patch on the back and sleeves. Love it!”

Sequoia 60g Insulated Jacket & Cedar Utility Vest
“I loved the jacket from the moment I put it on. I was comfortably warm wearing it with a light jacket; it’s perfect for layering, depending on the weather. I had never worn a vest and was not sure how I would feel about it. I quickly fell in love with wearing a vest and am now a convert. It fit comfortably and had more than enough room to hold everything I usually carry in my pack. The fit is flattering, and it hangs long enough to protect me when sitting on the chair lift.”

Pilsner Pants
“I purchased the HH Pilsner pants last year, and I absolutely love them. I didn’t believe the chart at first as they’re European sizing. Following the sizing chart is a must, and they fit true to the chart. The pants are comfortable in all temps, and ventilation is good on those warm days on the hill.”
