Our best tips for cross-country attire
A successful ski trip begins with the right attire.
The choice of cross-country skiing attire is not only important for comfort but also for your performance on the ski trail. Johaug has created a great collection that caters to all types of ski trips, whether intense training sessions or excursions.
What you choose depends on the intensity you plan to maintain during the ski trip. Intensity determines how much heat you generate and the ventilation, insulation, and protection level you need. Here are our best tips!
High-intensity skiing outfits
For the outer layer, we recommend clothing with excellent flexibility, allowing unrestricted movement on the ski trail.
Our Advance Hybrid collection is an excellent choice for those in need of attire for high-intensity cross-country skiing. This collection features a tailored fit and materials with outstanding flexibility, perfect for those seeking full freedom during challenging ski trips.
On slightly cooler days, our bestseller Concept 2.0 provides extra thermal insulation with features like down in areas where we tend to freeze.
Outer layers
For high-intensity skiing, it's important to choose an outfit that prioritizes efficient ventilation over excessive insulation.
In addition to efficient ventilation, flexibility is important for performance and comfort.New in

Low-intensity skiing outfits
For relaxed ski trips with low intensity, we recommend outer layers with good insulation and materials that withstand weather and wind. The degree of insulation and protection you need depends on various factors such as weather, temperature, and intensity.
One of our favorites for low-intensity ski trips is the Advance Primaloft series and the Temping Primaloft pants. However, if you prefer a thinner outer layer, you can also enhance insulation on cooler days by opting for warmer base layers, or vice versa.

Base layers
During low-intensity cross-country skiing, body temperature doesn't increase to the same extent as with medium to high intensity, necessitating greater reliance on heat-insulating properties in the innermost layer.
