Skida, the Vermont-based accessories brand, is proud to announce their all-new Pursuit Collection featuring a multi-use Liner Gloves and a new Performance Hat and Headband. This line was engineered in collaboration with Skida’s athletes to meet the demands of training and competing at the highest levels of sport.
This collection combines top-notch performance with environmental responsibility – each piece is crafted with certified BlueSign PFA-free fabric.
The standout of the line is their new Liner Glove, arriving after years of requests from athletes and Skida fans alike. Designed as the perfect base layer for your cold-weather adventures, the gloves deliver exceptional insulation and ample dexterity, featuring touch-screen compatible technology. Whether worn alone or under your favorite mitts, they allow you to tackle every task and temperature shift with ease.
The performance headband & hat were built for race, endurance, and high-intensity pursuits. Though designed to endure the most intense of pursuits, they are just as comfortable for everyday adventures. Thoughtful details include helmet compatibility, anti-slip technology, and optimal breathability.
“With every new product, we strive to be intentional and address a real need. The Pursuit Collection was born from feedback from athletes and customers seeking lightweight, breathable, and warm gear, designed to offer uncompromising performance in any condition,” says Eliza Nixon, Skida Brand Manager
Founder Corinne Prevot started Skida as a teenaged cross-country ski racer in 2008 with the goal of making headwear that could wick sweat and stay warm through hard, Vermont winter workouts. As Skida has grown, so has the level of athletes the brand serves. In recent years, Skida has developed partnerships with winter athletes—including Julia Kern, Bea Kim, and the and U.S. Ski and Snowboard Team—performing at the highest levels, and the Pursuit Collection is designed specifically to meet their needs.
“The Pursuit collection is the soft, thin layer that you put on and forget about during your chosen pursuit,” notes Nordic Skiing Olympian Julia Kern. “Last season, I always had the pursuit headband and hat in my bag, whether it was a race day or a day backcountry skiing in the mountains. I like the collection because it breathes super well during hard efforts like races or on warmer days, and it also fits easily under a helmet. The Pursuit headband became my go-to race headband last season because I was able to put it on and not think about it; it stayed in place and kept me warm but wicked well when I was sweating.”
