Aldi’s famous Snow Gear Special Buys sale is back with the range hitting the middle aisle shelves in mid-May.
The highly anticipated snow sale will see more than 70 products on offer with prices starting from just $4.99 and nothing exceeding $100 as the snow range makes its comeback on Saturday, May 18.
Rodney Balech, group director for National Buying at Aldi described this year’s range as “better than ever”.
“Whether you’re planning a solo ski trip or a friendly snowball fight with the family, Aldi’s Snow Gear range offers everything you need at an affordable price, without compromising on quality.”
“We’re the also introducing more unisex options for kids, making it easier than ever for parents to hand down outfits to save on buying new sizes year after year.”
“While price and affordability are on everyone’s minds this year, we have also ensured that every item in our range meets the highest benchmarks.”
Mr Balech said they work with their partners across the globe to create “high quality products across every layer”.
“[And] now in more sizes than ever. Each item is embedded with innovative technology that is built to provide top-of-the-line durability and comfort in all conditions, so you can feel assured that both you and your budget will feel great carving down the slopes in this year’s range.”
So, what’s on offer? A lot.
Snow gear can be very expensive – a snow jacket alone can cost in the hundreds. But Aldi will have its Adult’s Premium Ski Jackets for just $99.99 and Ski Pants for $79.99, which are made to be highly waterproof to 20,000mm, breathable to 20,000g, and have fully taped seams to ensure ultimate performance, comfort and durability. They also happen to look gnarly too.
For first time visitors to the snow, Aldi has also dropped its most affordable new snow jacket. “The price tag isn’t the only impressive thing about our new Adult’s Quarter Zip Snow Hoodie ($49.99). This highly waterproof and breathable anorak is perfect for newcomers to the snow looking to set themselves up with the right gear without having to blow the budget,” Mr Balech said.
“With fully taped seams, wind resistance, an external ski pass pocket, and zipped side ventilation, this jacket will keep you warm and comfortable in all conditions.”
Those looking to get kitted with the essentials for two adults and two kids including all outerwear, gloves, goggles, helmets, thermoboots and kids knitted accessories, can do so for less than $750.
Meanwhile, those looking for just a jacket, pants, gloves, beanie and socks, can kit out an adult for less than $150 and get the kids ready for less than $100, the retailer says.
For the kids, there’s the Toddler’s Snow Suit for $34.99 and there’s even “mini-me” designs that include matching sets for adults and kids. The sizing for teens and young adults has also been extended to give more options for those growing up, and a new Adult’s Quarter Zip Snow Hoodie ($49.99) has been added to the range for less than $50.
