Packing Guide: Jeremy & Angie × Ski Trip Essentials
Celebrated globetrotters and content creators Jeremy Austin (@jeremyaustiin) and Angie Villa (@missangievilla) first discovered skiing on a 2021 trip to the French Alps—and were instantly hooked. Now seasoned snow lovers, they’re sharing their tried-and-true ski trip packing list and tips. From slope essentials to après-ski comforts, here’s how to get ready for your own perfect ski holiday without missing a single must-have item.
Slopeside Staples
“Our packing list always starts with the big three: AK Ski of Switzerland skis, Atomic boots and Atomic poles. From there, it’s all about the essentials from French ski brand Fusalp—a helmet, goggles, gloves, base layers, mid layers and ski pants. And of course, you have to pack a Moncler jacket. With our gear dialed in, we can head to the mountains knowing we’re covered for every run, and spend the rest of the trip focused on the adventure and the après.”
Kiwi Collection tip:
The Chedi Andermatt tops Jeremy and Angie’s list of favorite ski getaways. They love starting the day in the private outdoor sauna after a fresh snowfall and ending it surrounded by the resort’s luxurious comfort.
Ski All Day, Style All Night
“We love packing après-ski outfits that feel relaxed but still stylish. Loro Piana layers are warm and elegant, Mackage adds that sleek finish and Moon Boot is unbeatable for comfort. For dinners, we switch to Prada or Moncler boots with Giorgio Armani Neve trousers—pieces that let us feel put-together without overthinking it.”
Glow After the Snow
“Slope days are tough on skin, so Dr. Barbara Sturm products are always in our bag, especially the Sun Drops SPF 50 and Face Cream Rich. Après-ski, recovery is key. We rotate between a cold plunge, sauna or steam room and always finish with something simple and comforting: a warm hot chocolate.”
Kiwi Collection Tip:
For Jeremy and Angie, nothing beats Italy’s Dolomiti Superski region—a vast alpine playground covering 12 resorts and 1,246 kilometers of slopes, including Cortina, Alta Badia and Val Gardena. For tips on where to stay and what to do, check out our latest article, Winter in the Dolomites.
Alpine Adventures in Focus
“When it comes to camera gear on the slopes, we rely on the Sony Alpha 1 and DJI Mini 5 Pro to get the best shots. Alpine conditions can be tricky, so we always use a solid carrying bag and move fast. The key? Know your shot, snap it quickly and keep your gear safe while doing it.”
