For the 2024-25 season we are excited to announce the rollout of new uniforms!
Those who were with us last year will be aware that we will be getting new uniforms from Helly Hansen. The new uniforms are being shipped and our current projected timeline for distribution is the middle of December.
Staff that will be working before the new uniforms arrive will be given last year's uniform alongside a new raincoat to start and will have the opportunity to exchange once the new uniforms arrive.
Skiers will all be in blue, riders will have black pants with a blue jacket.
The outer layers (jackets & pants) are shells, so plan your layering accordingly for the upcoming season. The pant lengths are all the same, HOWEVER, there are ways to make them longer & shorter, yay! There is RED stitching along the bottom seam that can be removed to make the pants 5cm longer. There is also an elastic button system on the inside (as seen in the pictures) to shorten the length. These buttons are on both sides to ensure equal length all around.There are male & female cuts to the uniform
Uniforms are Helly Tech® Professional – click HERE for more details on the technology.Helly Hansen is VERY committed to Sustainability, please click HERE for more details.
Due to this commitment to sustainability, their method of waterproofing is a little different from traditional (and harmful to the environment) Gore-Tex. Oil, dirt & salt will affect the waterproofing, so please take good care of your uniform.

You can bring your uniform into the Springs for a trip to the cleaners and this should be done frequently.Outer jackets may start to look “wet” on the outside sooner than Gore-Tex models, but the waterproof membrane is underneath that, so you should still be dry on the inside.
