Hi all!

Just learned how to ski, but the suit I borrowed is super old and started getting wet.

I'm looking for something ideally made in Europe, if not, at least from a European-based company (and made outside), that would be good for a beginner, fairly light and packable. And water-proof. :)

I really like the swiss shop Transa. idk how accessible it is from elsewhere.

But I'd recommend going in a physical shop and putting it on instead of buying online, as the size, fit and durability is very hard to judge online.
