Are you heading to the slopes this winter? Well you can leave your fluorescent ​salopettes and North Face jacket at home as Cirencester based Barrington Ayre have got your snow style sorted. 

Using fabric and a design of your choice, the bespoke tweed ski suits are waterproof and breathable with full working shoulder pleats to allow for full movement as well as special arm pit pleats to create even more movement whilst leaving room for air to circulate inside the jacket keeping you comfortable and dry all day.

The extended rear of the jacket also provides added security and comfort and with the lapels being able to button up around the neck you will keep dry and warm even in the wildest white outs!

The trousers have extended fishtail back to keep any air or snow out and the wider bottoms fit perfectly around the boots.

The tweed ski suit will set you back a tidy £1,250 but you will definitely look the most stylish on the piste and for après-ski.
