Reflections - Ski clothing rental in Switzerland
Buy less, use more, go explore! That rallying cry feels as fresh today as it did when we unboxed our first rental ski jacket in Verbier back in December 2022. Three winters and thousands of happy turns later, we’re taking a moment during our summer break to reflect on where we started, and why our skiwear rental is so well received by our customers.
What we do: high performance ski clothing for hire
We specialise in premium skiwear rental. Our service is focused on quality and convenience: users choose their outfit on our website, and we deliver to their accommodation in the Swiss Alps.
From a Verbier skiwear rental pilot to a Swiss‑wide service
Launching for Christmas 2022 in the ski resort of Verbier was equal parts nerve‑wracking and exhilarating. We had done our homework, partnered with trusted brands - but was it really going to work?
Thanks to a bit of good old-fashioned elbow grease, our supportive brand partners, visionary hoteliers and a small army of early adopters, that first season was a great success. The glowing feedback from customers told us we were on to something.
Fast‑forward three winters and Cirkel Supply now delivers premium ski outfits across Switzerland - with the international tourists skiing in Verbier, Zermatt, St Moritz being our top customer groups. We’ve stayed true to Swiss reliability while scaling our logistics, so that your outfit arrives at your accommodation a day before you do (and leaves the day after your last après‑ski session!).
Why travellers choose to rent their ski clothes
Scanning over the feedback from our customers - the leading rental motivations boil down to the quality, ease and convenience of our service.
Pack light, travel happy. No more wrestling puffa jackets and ski pants into heavy baggage because we deliver to your destination.
A few clicks and you’re sorted. Our Sizebay fit tool finds your size, our circular logistics get it to you on time - you simply have to choose your outfit.
Trusted brands. With Cirkel, you can rent skiwear from Patagonia, Picture, Houdini, Ortovox and more — freshly cleaned and ready to ride.
Family‑proof. We've got all ages covered from the tiniest powder hounds, to kids, teens, men and women.
Cash savings. Skiwear rental doesn’t just save you time, it also saves money - renting an outfit for your annual ski holiday costs a fraction of the retail purchasing price.
But don’t take our word for it, here are a few reviews from our customers:
“Seamless, friendly, fast service and reasonable prices — excellent gear really made our holiday easier! Especially great with fast‑growing kids.” — Kabira A.
“The Cirkel team was super responsive, even with last‑minute changes. Thank you for making our ski holiday such a pleasant one!” — Ryan P.
“Sizes were just right with their size guide.” — Chloe C.
Lessons from three winters on snow
Convenience beats ownership. Most skiers hit the slopes for less than 10 days a year; renting saves them money, time and storage space.
Fit matters. Our Sizebay integration ensures that skiers find the perfect fit - simply hit the button 'Find my size' on one of our product pages and enter your details.
Quality counts. Premium ski clothing lasts longer, performs better and looks sharper in holiday pics—we only rent skiwear aligned to this.
