Went to Lidl today, they are doing motorbike gear at the moment. Thoroughly recommend their thermals, tops and bottoms. Also their motorcycle gloves, very good for skiing in & if you do dry slope racing as well, as have protection so you don't rap yer knuckles on the poles.

A lot cheaper than the ski racing gloves you can buy.

Really like them.
:-)

I have four pairs of those. They are so well fitted that I sometimes wear them under jeans, which would normally be uncomfortable with fleece. I really lucked out and bought four pairs at T J Max four years ago for $15 a pair :D

Hi Eljay,
Lidl have specials each week.
A few months ago they did ski gear - it's ok.
They do sailing stuff sometimes, including wetsuits, motorbike gear and also they've recently been doing fishing gear as well.

I don't think it's stuff that lasts for years, but for for occasional use or for someone trying a new sport, you can't go wrong.
You'd have to hide the B square logo on the ski helmet tho!!!!
(actually I tried one on and it was a no go - totally odd shape - less it's my head )

They are too warm now though,I wore my thin thermals yesterday skiing...and was still hot!
