"Timed perfectly before the ski season, a two-day October Prime sale is offering steep discounts—often up to around 60%—on a wide range of ski gear, with some items priced as low as $6. The author (and her ski-coach father) recommends stocking up on multiples of basics like socks, gloves, and goggles, while also taking advantage of heavy markdowns on waterproof ski jackets, insulated snow pants, base layers, helmets, goggles, boot bags, and small accessories. Standout bargains called out include a heavily discounted Moerdeng men’s waterproof ski jacket, Columbia Women’s Modern Mountain 2.0 pants, Smith Optics Mission MIPS helmet and Smith Squad goggles, plus practical extras such as boot bags, AirTag packs, hand warmers, and portable chargers. The piece emphasizes investing in waterproof outer layers and up-to-date helmets/goggles for safety and warmth, noting that fall has historically been one of the best times to find the lowest prices for the upcoming 2024/25 season." - Anna Popp Anna Popp Anna Popp is a New York-based associate editor at Travel + Leisure, covering all of the best travel products, from luggage to outdoor gear.
