Skiing Adventures with Spotty Otter: Gear Up for the Slopes!

There’s nothing quite like the thrill of skiing—the crisp mountain air, fresh powder beneath your skis, and the sheer joy of gliding down the slopes. Whether your family are seasoned skiers or taking their first snowy steps, having the right gear is essential to making the most of your winter adventures. That’s where Spotty Otter comes in!

Our Patrol Collection is the ultimate choice for little adventurers hitting the slopes this season. Designed with skiing in mind, this high-performance range is fully waterproof, windproof, and crafted to handle the challenges of snowy terrains. Here's why it's a must-have for ski season:

Why Choose the Spotty Otter Patrol Collection

Warmth Without Bulk: The Patrol gear is insulated to keep your kids toasty, even on the chilliest of days, without restricting movement—perfect for active fun like skiing.
Waterproof & Windproof: Designed to withstand snowy tumbles and blustery weather, keeping them dry all day long.
Durable Design: Skiing is tough on gear, but the Patrol Collection is tougher, made to handle everything the slopes throw at it.
Perfect Fit: Adjustable features ensure your little ones can move comfortably and focus on the fun!

Don’t Forget the Layers!

No matter how great your outerwear is, layering is key when it comes to staying warm on the slopes. Spotty Otter’s thermals and fleeces make excellent base layers, offering unbeatable warmth and comfort. Start with a soft thermal base layer to trap heat, add a fleece for extra insulation, and finish with your Patrol or Forest Leader gear to keep the elements at bay. These layers work together to ensure your little explorers stay cosy no matter the weather.

Forest Leader: A Versatile Alternative

If you’re looking for an alternative to the Patrol range, the Forest Leader Collection is another fantastic option. Fully waterproof with a cosy fleece lining, the Forest Leader can be a great choice for skiing, especially if you layer up with our thermals and fleeces underneath. It’s perfect for sledging, snowball fights, and exploring snowy landscapes, both on and off the slopes.

Accessories Matter!

Don’t forget the all-important ski accessories! The Patrol Gloves and Mitts are designed to provide unbeatable warmth and protection from the elements, ensuring your little adventurers’ hands stay dry and cosy, even during snowball fights or hours on the slopes. Pair them with one of our Spotty Otter neck warmers or bobble hats for added comfort and protection against the cold. These finishing touches not only keep kids warm but also ensure they’re kitted out in style for their snowy adventures.

Get Slope-Ready

Whether you're tackling green runs, racing down blues, or enjoying a family day in the snow, Spotty Otter has the kit to make every moment memorable. The Patrol Collection is ideal for ski holidays, while the Forest Leader—paired with the right layers—is perfect for snowy fun back home.
