Ski clothing hire

Is it possible to hire ski clothing in Andorra (i.e. ski jacket, ski trousers and gloves)? If so, any suggestions?





We are travelling from Australia and do not want to be carrying ski gear for the rest of our trip!





Thanks.

I%26#39;ve never seen anywhere where you could hire.





Where are you going before Andorra? There are plenty of places in UK where you can hire, more still that you could buy so cheaply that you could consider them disposable.





If you%26#39;re not visiting UK i%26#39;m sure folk could point you in the right direction for cheap buys elsewhere. Decathlon always has half decent skiwear at cheap prices.

Have put my feelers out. Have been told there is no ski clothing hire in Pas De La Casa ( Grand Valira) and they have not heard of it elsewhere in Andorra, but are checking for me.



Not sure I would want to wear someone else%26#39;s ski trousers or gloves though, unless my own family !!!



Agree with Stockport, you can buy cheap gear in the UK ( TK MAX especially), and modern ski wear is not thick and bulky like it used to be. You can buy polo necks, fleeces, gloves, hats and everything else in resort. Andorra is a tax free country, so prices should be lower than other ski resorts.



Do you have your own ski wear already? If your skiing is at the end of your trip, you could sent a suitcase by mail in advance to your hotel, so it would be there ( hopefully ) when you arrive, then you would only have to take it home. Not sure about the cost though!!! Maybe more than buying new gear.

Thanks for the replies. I will look into buying some ski gear in the UK.
