We plan to spend Christmas and NYE in the Austrian Alps, no skiing, just enjoying the snow and villages etc
ALDI ski sale coming up soon, but the popular choice around here seems to be the MacPac Halo which is currently on sale at $139. I need to buy suitable jackets and shoes for the entire family, and confused with the choices available.
ALDI, MacPac, Uniqlo, Kathmandu and the list goes on…
What fill power puffer jacket will we need for the Alps, will non-waterproof be ok, is there an obvious choice between brands? Don't want to spend a fortune.
Shoes? Regular sneakers for dry walking conditions around town, then something like Merrell boots for snowy, wet conditions?
No Aldi in Austria, they are called Hofer. Just buy when you get there, there is also Lidl, usually cheaper!
