Ski clothes

My 14 month wait for my trip to Bulgaria is nealy over and so i better get my ski clothes sorted.
What would you say is the average amount of ski clothes id need for a week away?
I was thinking 2 pairs of ski trousers but my dad (who as never been skiing in his life) says id only need 1 pair.
Also what is better Sun glasses or goggles?

Last thing ... is Dare2B a good make for ski clothes?

Thanks all

One pair of saloppettes/ski trousers will be absolutely fine.
Goggles and glasses in my view, although if only one then goggles first. You can ski in bright sunshine in goggles, glasses are next to useless in poor visibility/white out.
Bought my son a dare2be outfit this year (full size adult) including base layers, gloves and beanie. Really impressed with quality, especially for the price.
Everything survived the week and gloves were jolly good in cold conditions (and fully waterproof).
Hope this helps - enjoy !!

ah yes i never thought of that with the ski goggles and sunglasses. ill prob go with the goggles and maybe get a cheap pair of sunglasses. looking at trousers theres some in the shop 3000mm. what does that mean? think its something do with waterproof?

Cheers for the advise anyways.

Sm4sh,
One of the good things about Borovets is that no-one is going to care how stylish/chavvy you look, and there is plenty of cheap okay ski gear around. I reckon Dare2be is fine, but there is even cheaper stuff around if you're on a very tight budget.

I bought my salopettes (ski trousers with shoulder straps) from TKMaxx for only £30. They don't look at all stylish but I've worn them on 2 ski holidays now and they were fine. You don't even really need a special ski jacket if you already have one that's waterproof and breathable. I wore my normal jacket for my first few ski holidays. And I never wear special 'thermals' - I've got very old cotton leggings to go under my salopettes and thin stretchy jumpers to go over my T-shirt and under my ski jacket that I've had for years.

I'd say you need 3 pairs of ski socks - cheap tube socks are okay although the very expensive fitted ski socks are possibly better, and wash the socks half way through the holiday so you can wear clean ones every day - feet get very sweaty ski-ing!

One pair of ski trousers/salopettes

3 pairs of thermals/tops and leggings - or cheap substitutes to wear next to your skin

1 Ski jacket or similar

1 pair of warm waterproof gloves

1 woolly hat or helmet

A neck warmer in case the weather is awful (but it's not essential) which can be pulled up to be like a balaclava.

Goggles and sunglasses

Lipsalve and high factor suncream - it's amazing how one's lips dry out at altitude

TK Maxx is great if they have the stuff left and the above posts are spot on

Remember in life "you get what you pay for"

Don't buy cheap gloves, it's not worth it. I got frostbite in Italy wearing a pair of new C&A ski gloves years ago. I was chucked out of my ski school class and told I could only come back with new gloves. My fingertips lost all feeling for 3 days. I took the gloves back to the store when I came back to the UK, and got a refund.

One ski jacket.... Skiing only not for going out at night
One pair sallo's
One pair of decent gloves....... as Bandit says buy good quality
One pair of ski socks
Three base layers
A couple of pairs of pants !!!
One ski hat
One pair of Sun glasses
One pair of goggles
One of those Ruff's for your neck in cold weather.
A couple of T-shirts for cold weather.

Ps and a hip flask filled to the brim with a fine Cognac :D

PPs don't buy beanie hats as they don't cover your ears in cold weather
