1. Base Layers: Kosha thermals for snow

Your winter trip packing list, Kosha, should always start with the right foundation, and base layers are the foundation of any winter clothing. Base layers are your first, and most important, layers of protection from the cold.

These Kosha thermals for snow act as your invisible protector against the chill. They keep you warm, comfortable, dry, and insulated throughout the day.

Go for merino wool or bamboo-based thermals because these are soft, warm, and insulating and offer you the right amount of fit and shape, alongside mobility. Don’t go for cotton-based thermals as they trap in body moisture, making you feel a lot colder. 

Start with the right base—Kosha thermals for snow blend warmth, breathability, and style for all your alpine escapes.

2. Mid-layer, which matters

Once we have set the right foundation, we need to build the warmth with the right mid-layer, which matters. From a carefully curated collection of Kosha snow travel essentials, go for mid layers made of fleece or merino wool.

The reason is that both of these layers are lightweight, and they keep you warm without the unnecessary bulk. Look for mid layers that come with adjustable strings and hoods for your comfort.

3. Kosha’s Waterproof Jackets: Stylish and Warm

Now that we have figured out our base layer and mid-layer, Kosha waterproof jackets should be the next thing on your Kosha snow travel essentials list, as they are the most important while travelling.

Picture yourself travelling to a place with unpredictable weather conditions, where a sunny morning can quickly change to a snowy and windy afternoon. That’s why you need Kosha’s waterproof jackets.

Kosha waterproof jackets shield you from the outside weather, prioritizing functionality over fashion. Kosha’s Women's Waterproof fleece-lined Jacket might be the perfect choice for your next alpine adventures 

Shield yourself from wind and snow with Kosha waterproof jackets—essentials made for elevated adventures.

4. Bottoms that work

You need bottoms that work, and simple ripped or baggy jeans just would not work. Simple jeans might not keep you insulated and warm, and they aren’t even waterproof, making them a bad choice for winter travels.

Go for Kosha’s waterproof ski pants as these pants are breathable, they keep you warm, insulated, and protected from unpredictable weather conditions. 

5. Accessorize

A major part of Kosha snow travel essentials is the accessories. These accessories can elevate your style while offering you additional warmth. Be on the lookout for these accessories while creating your winter trip packing list, Kosha, for your next alpine adventures:

Beanies: 

Make sure to include woolen caps or beanies in your winter trip packing list, Kosha, as they give you warmth and save you from a bad hair day.

Scarves:

Scarves are a major part of Kosha snow travel essentials, as they look great with outfits, elevating your style.

Gloves:

Gloves are essential to have as they keep your hands and fingers warm on the go.

Woolen socks:

Woolen socks keep your feet warm on the go. Go for pieces like woolen socks for women for that extra comfort.

Step into warmth—technical socks by Kosha are the hidden heroes of snow travel outfit essentials.

6. Footwear for function

For footwear, don’t go for leather boots as they are too out of style. Instead, choose warm, insulating, waterproof snow boots. Also, go for shoes that have a proper amount of space for socks or even foot warmers.

Check for inner padding, zip or lace fastenings, and ankle support. After spending a day in the snow, your feet will appreciate it.

7. Packing Tips to Travel Smart

Here are some tips to travel smart:

• Keep handy layers in your bag, and don’t overload your rucksack.
• Make sure to keep those pieces that are dry-fit, as they are quick drying and odor-resistant.
• Pack multi-purpose items, such as a middle layer, which might function as sleepwear as well, saving you some space in your rucksack.
