Skiing and snowboarding is not just a sport, it is a lifestyle. Brands were a little slow at the beginning to act on this trend, but over the last few years have expanded their product line to include more urban style clothing.
Dare2b are no exception, and I checked out the Exult Shirt and Ease Off Hoody. Both of which can easily be worn on the slopes on those glorious spring bluebird days as well as looking the part when enjoying Apres ski.
Dare2b Exult Shirt – Fresh Khaki
I just love the simple and casual design of the Exult shirt. The rugged style detailing would not look out of place about town and looks stylish worn on top of a base layer top when enjoying milder weather on the slopes.
The Exult shirt is made from a winter weight fabric that is windproof and also Anti-bacterial odour control treated and believe me, after a hard days shredding on a goggle tan topping day in spring time sunshine, this is something your friends will be thankful of!
The shirt is equipped with a couple of good sized chest pockets and the cuffs are adjustable.
The spec may not come with technology that was the brainchild of Nasa scientists, but it does the job and looks great – I love it!

Dare2b Ease Off Hoody – Cloudy Grey
The Ease Off Hoody is a simple but stylish zip-through hoody made from winter weight brushed back jersey. As with the Exult shirt, this hoody looks equally as good worn under a shell jacket or as outerwear on those mild weather shred sessions, as it does about town or lazing about in the chalet.
The hoody has two zipped pockets to stop contents falling out while on the slopes (especially handy if you keep your ski lift pass in there!), ribbed cuffs and hem, and as would be expected, a drawcord hood.
Although this is a no thrills hoody, it is warm, well made and soft on touch to the skin. I think of Hoody’s as the swiss army knife of clothing as they can be worn in most situations and in fact, I am actually wearing the Ease Off Hoody as I am writing this review!
