SUMMIT 1886: The Ski Capsule

Ski wear for the slopes and the moments in between.

SUMMIT 1886 is our ski collection: technical ski wear for men and women, made for winter escapes and time spent at elevation. It's one of our bestsellers, proven on the slopes and sold as far as Courchevel in the French Alps, at Bernard Orcel.

 

The Ski Capsule

A Saudi brand on the slopes

For a brand born in Riyadh, a ski collection is a bold step, and an important one. SUMMIT 1886 takes the same approach as everything else we make: pieces that perform on the slope and look right off it. Every piece moves with you and keeps you comfortable, flexible, and protected through a full day outside, then carries you straight through to the evening.


“SUMMIT 1886 came from a real passion of mine. On every ski trip, I wanted something that represented Saudi Arabia in those places. Something made for our people, so that while we’re out enjoying the mountain, we’re also representing where we come from. We built real technology into every piece, but above all I wanted it to stand out. I wanted people to be proud of a Saudi brand,” says Fahad Aljomiah, co-founder of 1886.

The Ski Capsule

Built with technical fabrics

The collection is made from technical performance fabrics chosen for real winter conditions. Shells are wind-resistant and water-repellent while staying breathable and light. The puffers are filled with 90% duck down for warmth without bulk.

The details follow suit: storm cuffs wide enough to fit over gloves, waterproof-seam zip pockets, adjustable hoods, articulated knees for movement, and reinforced panels where boots and ski edges wear things down.

For him

The Alpine Ski Jacket is the anchor of the men's range: a structured, hooded shell in Deep Chocolate Brown with Soft Sand colour-block panels, a waterproof front zip and a zip pocket on the sleeve. The Welded Ski Puffer brings the warmth, with 90% duck down, a woven micro-houndstooth shell in Graphite and four zip pockets with waterproof seams. The Arctic Eclipse Technical Alpine Jacket completes the outerwear.

Below the waist, the Cargo Ski Pants and Arctic Performance Ski Pants are built for long days on the slope.

 

For her

The Belted Lux Down Jacket in Midnight Navy is the statement piece: a shaped, slightly cropped down jacket with an integrated belt that defines the waist and a storm placket against the wind. The Belted Downhill Jacket and the Alpine Ski Jacket offer two more ways to wear it on the mountain.

The Stretch Alpine Ski Pants are tailored with a slight flare, articulated knees and reinforced lower legs. For a single piece that does everything, there's the Ski Jumpsuit in white and black.

The Ski Capsule

The HorizonVue Ski Goggles

The 1886 HorizonVue Ski Goggles are the first ski accessory 1886 has made, developed in close collaboration with professionals for real winter conditions. The silver-mirrored lens sits without a traditional frame around it, giving a wide field of view. An adjustable elastic strap with silicone backing keeps them in place, soft foam padding keeps them comfortable, and they fit over most helmets. The woven 1886 logo on the strap finishes them.

The Ski Capsule

Finish the look

Wool beanies, 1886 sweat bands and the Distressed Weekend Bag complete the capsule, from the first lift to the trip home.

How to wear it

On the slope. The Alpine Ski Jacket with the Cargo Ski Pants, or the Belted Downhill Jacket with the Stretch Alpine Ski Pants. Add the HorizonVue goggles and a wool beanie.

After the slope. Keep the puffer on and swap the ski pants for something easy. The Welded Ski Puffer and the Belted Lux Down Jacket are made to look as good in the lobby as on the lift.

For the trip. Pack it all in the Distressed Weekend Bag and travel in the puffer.
