Ski and mountain headbands

Our selection of Headbands for Skiing gathers the warm headbands of the mountains: women's headband Cairn Agnes in knit and Bula Powder headband in fleece, to keep your ears warm while cross-country skiing, ski touring, snowshoeing or strolling in the resort.

Ears warm, head cool.

Between a headband and nothing

The headband covers the ears and forehead, the areas most sensitive to the cold, while leaving the top of the head free. It is suitable for intense activities where a beanie would cause too much sweating: cross-country skiing, uphill ski touring, snowshoeing, winter trail running. It also allows for a ponytail and can easily be carried in a pocket for those moments when the sun returns to the slopes.

Other accessories

Winter sports accessories also come in various forms:

All the accessories are brought together on the accessories page.

Mesh or fleece

The mesh headband, like the Cairn Agnes from the French winter sports brand, offers an elegant look, sometimes lined with soft fleece inside. The fleece headband, like the Bula Powder from the specialist mountain accessories brand, is lightweight, warm, and dries quickly: it’s suitable for intense efforts. Merino wool models regulate temperature and limit odours.

Choosing the right one

The headband should fully cover the ears without squeezing the forehead, to avoid headaches. A wider back offers better protection for the neck. On alpine ski slopes, a helmet is preferred, but a thin headband can be worn underneath. It can be paired with a neck warmer to protect the lower face in very cold conditions. It should be washed by hand or on a delicate cycle, and dried flat.

Good deals

Good deals can also be found in the good plans, promotions, clearance sales, sales, and Black Friday. The new arrivals feature the latest collections, and items shipped in 24 hours are prepared and sent out within 24 hours. The highlights of the year follow a stable order: Black Friday at the end of autumn, year-end festivities, winter sales, French Days in spring, followed by summer sales and back-to-school promotions.

Frequently asked questions

Headband or beanie, what to choose for skiing?

The headband protects the forehead and ears while allowing the top of the head to breathe, ideal for cross-country skiing or uphill hiking. The beanie, which is warmer, is better suited for very cold days and breaks.

Mesh or fleece headband, what’s the difference?

Mesh, like that of the Cairn Agnes headband, is stylish and breathable. Fleece, like that on the Bula Powder, is softer, dries quickly and retains heat better when the wind picks up.

Can you wear a headband under a ski helmet?

Yes, provided you choose a thin headband that doesn’t alter the fit of the helmet. It adds a layer of warmth over the ears but the helmet must remain securely positioned on the head.

How to properly wear a ski headband?

Position it right at the eyebrows, so it fully covers the ears, then pull it slightly up at the back. It allows for a ponytail and stays in place without slipping during activity.
