Must Have Winter Gear from Columbia Sportswear

If you’re going to do anything great outside during a Canadian winter you need to be well dressed. Wether you deal with rain or snow during the winter months you need a warm head, hands and feet.

This winter, I’ve been keeping warm with new Columbia Sportswear accessories.

I would have been freezing during my recent trip to Whistler if it wasn’t for my Columbia neck warmer, toque and ski gloves.

{Neck Warmer}

This is a must have accessory for any outside sport. Let’s face it, wearing a scarf isn’t always the best option. This Columbia neck warmer is the perfect solution. It’s extremely soft and keeps your neck very warm.

{Toques}

Columbia has so many styles of toques and hats available now. I received two great toques, one grey striped toque and one purple striped toque. I was very impressed on how warm and dry this toque kept my head while skiing on Whistler mountain. I also really like the fleece lining in the toque.

{Gloves}

I received a pair of Absolutely Waterproof gloves to put to the test during my ski vacation. These gloves were awesome. My fingertips didn’t get cold once while wearing them. Columbia has a large selection of waterproof gloves and mitts in store and online right now.

{Boots}

My favourite product tested while in Whistler are my Women’s Minx Slip Omni-Heat boots. I cannot say enough about these boots. They are easy to slip on, keep your feet warm and have incredible grip (perfect for those icy sidewalks). I played in the snow with these boots on, I went sledding, I walked through snowy Whistler village in them. I love these boots so much.

Now that I’m back home in rainy Victoria, I have worn the boots on cold mornings. These boots are waterproof so they work great in all west coast weather.
