Hurry! The Ski Wear Ordering Window is Closing…
Although it’s the middle of summer, you’re running out of time to order before customers hit the slopes. That’s because manufacturers like LotoGarment typically need a three-month lead-in to create and deliver large orders for ski jackets, snowsuits, ski pants, and other winterwear items. And despite having 9000 m² of factory space, 400 skilled staff, and 18 production lines, they quickly become busy at this time, as the company responds to an avalanche () of orders for ski wear. Customers will start to research what to wear skiing in only a handful of weeks, so make sure that you’re ready!
A Brief History of Ski Wear
We can trace the roots of skiing back as far as 4000 years thanks to cave paintings that depict figures with planks on their feet. We’re not bothered with them now because we can guess what they were wearing: woolly mammoth pelts probably. Modern skiing gained traction at the end of the 19th century, thanks to Norwegian efforts to popularise it, but it was the Austrians who first tried to make it stylish.
Mathias Zdarsky and Hannes Schneider turned skiing into a popular sport and Austrian culture gave it the folk dress aesthetic, with earthy colors and simple items like lederhosen adapted for the slopes. Women began skiing more in the 1920s, and many abandoned skirts for trousers.

Men’s Snowboard Jacket
These days, ski-wear shoppers are looking for more color, and lighter, more comfortable fabrics that keep out the cold and wet. And although we say skiers, we might as well go off-piste straight away and also include snowboarders!
This men’s snowboard jacket is typical of the slightly understated color scheme that snowboarders often prefer. It’s made of 100% nylon, and it’s also possible to specify recycled materials if customers demand them.
The men’s snowboard jacket’s waterproofing can disperse 8000mm of rain in 24 hours, but is also breathable, which is a must because winter sports are a sweaty business! The fabric’s breathability is rated at 5000gsm, meaning it can allow enough perspiration to pass through to keep the wearer cool and comfortable no matter how many frontside 720s they perform on the half-pipe.
The Velcro cuffs are easily adjustable, and it also features two openings on the side seam. To enhance convenience and accessibility, we have incorporated two side seam openings equipped with waterproof nylon zippers, allowing for easy opening and closing. What sets our prints apart on the men’s snowboard jacket is their stunning 3D effect, particularly when contrasting colors are used to complement the main color, resulting in an irresistibly attractive appearance.
For insulation the snowboard jacket’s body and sleeve padding are made from Dupont™ Sorona®, a remarkable and versatile fiber. Thanks to a unique kink in the PTT polymer chain, Sorona® possesses a natural snap-back capability, ensuring that the garment retains its shape over time. Whether it is used solely or combined with other fibers, the Sorona® insulation delivers unparalleled performance, offering exceptional warmth, softness, and durability. Style, convenience, and comfort have never been so affordable in a men’s snowboard jacket.

The pocket bags are made from 380T polyester taffeta, and mesh ventilation is strategically placed under the arms to promote breathability.
Dupont flat polyester provides optimal warmth without compromising mobility. The stretchable lycra cuffs with thumb holes offer a secure and snug fit, and all pockets are equipped with YKK waterproof nylon zippers, ensuring belongings stay dry and safe. To guarantee maximum protection against moisture, the seams are fully taped.
The special fleece mesh behind the zipper allows for ventilation and prevents stuffiness. Multi-layer insulation materials have been strategically placed in areas prone to feeling the cold, and a brand-themed elastic strap offers added convenience. Silicone windproof skirts prevent wind and snow from entering the top, enhancing overall comfort.
Practicality is key, as you can see from the zippered pockets that provide ample storage for the wearer’s essentials. The women’s ski jacket suits downhill skiing, snowboarding, and other snow activities.
