Founders Story

It all started with a borrowed jacket.

After more than ten years off the slopes, I joined my boyfriend on a ski trip. I didn’t own any ski gear, so I borrowed my mom’s old jacket. I rediscovered the magic of the mountains, but also noticed something: her decades-old jacket was still better quality than most of the “new” pieces on the market.

The following year, I went looking for my own skiwear and that’s when the frustration began…

“In my search for a premium, timeless ski suit, I ran into the same issues every single time. With a size XS bottom and S top, nothing ever felt right. I always had to compromise: too tight here, too loose there. When I finally found a fitting suit, it was more expensive then the entire ski trip.’’

Then came the turning point. In 2022 in Santa Cristina, I wore a cheap suit I’d managed to find. It fit poorly - too short in the body, too cold for most days - but still, I felt incredible. I realised something powerful: the right skiwear can transform how you feel. But why didn’t a brand exist that offered this confidence, fit, and timeless luxury at a more accessible level?

That question became an idea I couldn’t ignore.

Today, Permaux has created the ski suit I once dreamed of: timeless, elegant, and empowering. It enhances multiple silhouettes, offering both comfort and confidence. It’s built to last, season after season, a piece to wear, rewear and even pass down, just as my mom once did.
