Let’s improve your ski outfit together!

At Decathlon we always ask ourselves lots of questions to best meet your needs as athletes.

Thanks to this co-creation platform, and especially thanks to you, we will be able to answer all these questions and above all in a more reliable way.

We're at the beginning of the process and the first thing we need is to know exactly what matters most to you about your ski outfit.

Your answers will help us determine the priorities to be given to our products and to form communities by specific theme.

From a timing point of view, here is what is planned:

end of 2021: listen & identify your issues.

November 2021: communication of survey results.

December 2021: communication of the selected project(s) and creation of reflection communities.

We thank you in advance for your help.

On-site product test

WEDZE ski jackets and pants test // Men (L) // Chamonix

CompletedFrom Monday 14 to Monday 3/25/20223 Participants

Dear Co-creators

Have you ever felt cold air or snow unexpectedly touching your skin while skiing? It's clearly not the most pleasant thing, we agree!

Most of the time, these air and snow inlets take place at the junctions between two parts of your equipment: between the jacket and the gloves, between the jacket and the pants, between the jacket and the helmet and between the pants and shoes.

As you have understood, we are currently working on the snow and air tightness of these 4 junctions.

Objective: The objective of these tests is to characterize the limitation to air and snow inlets of the junctions that we develop and that we use on WEDZE ski jackets and pants.

Profiles sought: Experienced skiers

Number of candidates sought: 15

Hours: 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Program: Fun!

You will make several SNOOC descents (sled with a seat mounted on a ski) on the slopes with different outfits and answer a few questions on the ability of the equipment you are testing to limit the entry of cold air and snow at the junctions. . In other words, this test combines business with pleasure!
