Granola look gives way to sleeker X-C fashions
Article Abstract:
Nordic ski fashions have moved away from the practical homespun look to a sleeker, more colorful up-to-date look, that is both functional and versatile. More retailers are responding to the growing demand for X-country skiwear by stocking multi-use garments, equally suited for both Alpine and Nordic skiing. Buyers are selecting more varied clothing for the beginning as well as the racing-oriented skier.
