A one-piece ski suit or snowsuit is sometimes referred to as a freedom suit. The term best describes what the original use for ski and snow suits were––to improve the aerodynamics of the downhill skier. Today, one-piece snowsuits are used by an array of outdoor enthusiasts to stay warm and protected against the elements.
Snowsuits typically cover the wearer from head to wrists to ankles, feature various zippers to get in and out, often belted at the waist, and, depending on the style, sport flaps with buttons or velcro for breathability and comfort.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a one-piece ski suit called?
Are snowsuits warm?
You bet! Snowsuits are warm and comfy. The functionality of fusing the two of the most important outerwear pieces together is not only great for keeping snow out but provides better heat retention and regulation.
Hitting the slopes and ready to get speedy? Opt for a slim-fitting snowsuit. Shaving off some space gives snug snowsuits an aerodynamic edge.

What do skiers wear under their suits?
Layering up is always a good option but many snowsuits offer good insulation and are great at retaining heat. So, it all depends on who you are and what you’re looking for.
Sport skiers and ski racers may want to consider compression gear––this allows for a tighter fitting snowsuit and, though debated, could help with muscle recovery after a hard day out on the slopes. Warm bodies and snow fort-builders should also consider fewer layers because, unlike a two-piece suit, it’s not as easy to take off if you overheat. In that case, long underwear is a great option.
Consider a snowsuit with a little wiggle room for cool bodies or for low-output activities. In addition to the aforementioned long underwear, these suits can be warmed up with toasty fleece layers and comfy pants.
