Does anybody know if ski pants for pregnant woment exist? Heading out in late Jan with a 24 week pregnant wife who is finding it a little difficult to get in to last seasons gear.
Thanks

avoriaz_al, welcome to Snowheads. I have a gigantic pair of salopettes I bought very cheaply in a Marks and Spencer outlet store (couldn't resist). Very good spec, they were a size 16 I think, but my 24 week pregnant daughter in law fitted in them a treat and as they have shoulder straps, rather than anything tight round the waist, they were comfortable. They've only been worn for that week - she didn't ski, just walked around in them. Where are you (geographically)? and where are you going? Ours are in our apartment in France but we'll be there on 5 Jan.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

I don't know whether M & S still do ski gear - I think it was because they were discontinuing them that they were so cheap in the outlet store. You could perhaps try them - if you draw a blank, maybe we could work out a way to get our salopettes to Avoriaz?

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

I have a friend who is pregnant and has done the same - just bought an extra large pair! But she says ones with braces are more comfortable as they support the bump.

the M & S ones were big - I bought a size 12 too, which is gigantic compared to an ordinary 12. There were three assorted ones left on the rack, at £5 each, and I bought the lot. A teenage pair in a nice restrained airforce blue fitted my daughter - the others are very dull dark navy. Having checked the M & S website they only have a few odds and ends, no ski outerware as far as I can see. I think all but the most pregnant could get into the size 16s I bought - and being a woman's size they are not as long in the leg as an XXL men's pair would be. I am quite ready to part with them in a good cause if we can work out the logistics!
