Whether you’re returning to your favourite Alpine resort, venturing onto new snowy pastures for 2023 or hitting the slopes this season for the very first time, a good set of ski gear is a must.

But calculate outerwear, flights, accommodation, lift pass and one too many apres ski parties once you’re out there, and your ski holiday can add up to a costly affair.

Thankfully, Aldi is here to ease some of the load with its new range of affordable ski gear. More than 70 per cent cheaper than most ski wear on the market, the essentials start from just £6.99. Better still, it is kitting out the entire family with kids’, men’s and women’s styles.

From adult ski jackets, trousers, gloves and balaclavas to children’s helmets and hats, the budget supermarket’s slope-ready range is just as affordable as it is stylish.

Currently available to buy from Aldi’s coveted Specialbuys section, sizes are selling out fast. Here, we’ve rounded up the best of the supermarket’s ski gear to tick off your winter escape checklist.
