    Don't know about online but if you're near Kildare Village it's worth a visit to a shop call Tog24.

    Good stuff and reasonable enough

    Ive heading nxt week for 1.5 wks skiing hols, and bought most of my gear in TK-max. There are a number of shops:
    - 50 degrees north (expensive, v.good gear)
    - TK-max, cheap, gear reasonable once your not doing extreme ice sports
    - Sports shops (lifetstyle, champion etc) - good for base layers, fleece tops etc
    - Snow & Rock, same as 50 degrees, have sale on atm, still expensive but v.good gear.

    in reality you need to list what you need and shop around, also try on gear so they fit properly, do it now as sales are on.

    dont know where you live mate, but aldi/lidl on the st. margerets road in finglas testerday had tons of snowboarding/ski stuff including suits, goggles, gloves, trousers, jackets, thermal vests, thermal under garments etc etc etc

    sorry i cant remember if it was lidl or aldi but as they are 2 shops next door to each other, you can simply try them one by one as they are a 30 secone walk from each other.

    Tk-max always has a good range if you dont mind searching through the racks. Always better priced. The shop in Blanch usually has the biggest variety.:cool:
