When choosing you should ensure its made from waterproof material which keeps cold and moisture out but still allows your skin to breathe. Your ski wear should be made with PTFE membrane. PTFE means polytetrafluoro-ethylene which is the material used with polyster and/or along with nylon and provides breathable comfort but also protects against moisture. Another essential is gloves or mittens which protect your hands. They must also be flexible, waterproof and comfortable. You need a hat to keep your head and ears warm and sunglasses to give 100% UV protection. Lastly make sure you use sunscreen to stop you getting sunburned.
