Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Decathlon and Go Outdoors both sell cheap ski gear.

Some Argos branches have skiwear. Our local ski shop sells second hand gear (ex hire) extremely cheap, usually good stuff in good condition. Look in charity shops, too.

Have a look on the Tchibo website. Stick 'ski' in the search box and bingo. Seems to be good enough kit; my kids have had sevearl pieces from thenm which have lasted very well. I have a brilliant windproof fleece from them, £20 about 4 years ago, best ski jacket I've ever had.

larry duff, richmond, The problem with Lidl, Aldi and Tchibo is that they all only have their stuff in for a week or two, and are unlikely to have any more in this season.

Always some good deals at outdoorsy-type shops at your local outlet mall. If you can get across the M62 to Castleford (J32) there's at least 4 such shops.

Certainly true of Tchibo, but they still have ski gear available to buy on their web site.

Hi Neilski,

If you're still in the Nantwich area you could try the Mountain Warehouse and Trespass factory shops at the Freeport Mall in Talke (just off the A500 between Audley and Newcastle).

I was in there at the weekend and they'd still got loads of skiwear on the racks...

Neilski, Cheshire Oaks outlet mall is not too far from you. There are at least 4 or 5 shops there doing ski gear. Mostly good quality at reasonable prices too. Also as another poster said TKMaxx, they are clearing out all their ski gear now so everything is reduced further. Depends if they have got something you like in the right size left though. Also Milletts branches have a sale on at the moment and have some reasonably priced gear.

Fair point but my Lidl still has ski and board gear in some weeks after it was released. Maybe the bigger ones keep it a bit longer if they have room on the shelves?

larry duff, Possibly. I only have experience of fairly small ones, and they often sell out within a few days.
