Skida x U.S. Ski & Snowboard Team: Gear That Supports The Journey

Team USA apparel collaborations are having a distinct moment this winter, and with the Olympic Games Opening Ceremony just 16 days away, spiritwear has never looked better. Make your support count toward the athletes themselves and opt for winter accessories from Skida’s U.S. Ski & Snowboard Team Collection. 

For the beloved Vermont brand, backing the athletes has always been at the heart of its existence. It’s a cornerstone of why Corinne Prevot started the brand in the first place; to show up for the people who dedicate their lives to the sport, in spirit and in sales, as they chase their wildest dreams. 

For each signature pattern, Skida’s athlete ambassadors—olympians Paula Moltzan, Julia Kern, Ryan Cochran-Seigle, Gus Shumacher—work alongside Skida’s team to ensure their respective stories remain at the center of the pattern’s concept. From the local slopes of the Northeast to the towering glaciers of Alaska, each athlete brings his or her individual style and personality to the collection. 

“We’re so excited to roll out the new Skida x U.S. Ski & Snowboard print. We look forward to seeing it on snow as our athletes prepare for the big year ahead.” said Trisha Worthington, Chief Revenue Officer at U.S. Ski & Snowboard.

“We know that Skida products have been a longtime favorite of athletes on the world stage, and we are so excited to be able to support the team as a whole as they set off on this big year,” said Skida founder Corinne Prevot. “While we’ve been partnering with Olympic athletes through our Athlete Program for fifteen years, working directly with U.S. Ski & Snowboard allows us to support more athletes and deepen our connection to the sports we love.”

As part of their continued partnership, Skida and U.S. Ski & Snowboard are launching a fresh line of co-branded hats, neck warmers and headbands. The capsule collection will feature the brand’’s new “Stargazer” print, which symbolizes athletes’ high ambitions while giving a playful, retro-inspired nod to the winter night sky.

“We’re thrilled to roll out the new Skida x U.S. Ski & Snowboard print,” added Trisha Worthington “We look forward to seeing it on snow as our athletes prepare for the big year ahead.”

In addition to its direct partnership with the U.S. Ski & Snowboard Team, Skida will also continue to support multiple U.S. Ski & Snowboard athletes for several years through its Athlete Program.
