Club clothes

A race suit and a warm-up suit (top and bottoms) in club colours, made only for ŠD Gorje.
- Race suitprice when you orderThe price depends on the supplier; Tomaž tells you when you order. The club pays half.
- Warm-up suit (top and bottoms)price when you orderThe price depends on the supplier; Tomaž tells you when you order. The club pays half.
- When required
- At all home races and at the award ceremony (when the results are announced).
- How to order
- In September Tomaž collects orders by e-mail: athlete's name, clothing size, item. They are made only if there are enough orders.
- Second-hand
- You can also get them from older athletes who have outgrown them.
The club pays for the blue club T-shirt for the Zvezde na snegu concert and the club jacket for athletes.
How to buy
Ask the coach before you buy. Children grow fast, so second-hand is often best.
Helmet for roller skis and bike
A bike helmet marked CE EN 1078. The right size: two fingers above the eyebrows, strap snug under the chin, it doesn't move. Replace it after a hard fall. Buy second-hand only if you know it hasn't been dropped.
Cross-country ski boots
To start, combi boots (classic and skating). At most one size bigger so the foot doesn't move. The boot's binding system must match the skis' bindings: ask the coach before you buy.
Poles
For classic up to about the armpit, for skating up to the chin or mouth. The coach will tell you the exact length for your child.
Clothes
Synthetic or wool, not cotton. A thin breathable hat, ski gloves and a spare pair, a windproof jacket. For races the club race suit and warm-up suit.
Club skis: how it works
Bring them to the ski service before a race when the coach says so. Older athletes take turns waxing at training. At the end of the season clean them and return them to the club, where they are protected with wax. Your own skis or the club's? The coach recommends the club's, because the season fee also covers roller skis.
Shop discounts
With the blue card you get 50 % off at Alpina, and Nordic gives club members 30 %. The coach forwards shop offers.
Second-hand and swapping
Children grow out of gear fast. Look at the Flea market on the site or ask the parents of older athletes. In winter the club holds a second-hand gear fair. You can often get club clothes from older athletes. Aluminium poles are heavy.

Missing something? Look at the Flea market.
Club parents sell, give away and swap the gear their children have outgrown: skis, boots, roller skis, clothes.
