There’s no two ways about it, Jean-Claude Killy is a man of taste.. A master of 60s Alpine Ski, he stormed the scene with record-breaking feats in Downhill and Giant Slalom events.

Here are our top 6 gear picks to get that classic alpine ski style!

Howlin’ sunglasses, VALLON

Classic style, maximum performance. The Howlin’ from VALLON are inspired by an aviator shape. Sporting a detachable headstrap, they are the perfect all-round sunglasses from the slopes to après on those warm spring days!

Titan ski jacket, Spyder

Famously captured in classic combinations of red, white and blue, Killy carried his own style into a timeless collection of ski gear named after the main man himself. Before this, he was known to sport items from Spyder. We like the Titan jacket in Electric Blue from Spyder.

Polo shirt, Lacoste

With a taste for speed on and off the pistes, Jean-Claude wore the classic Lacoste polo shirt with a timeless composure.

Ski Aviators, VALLON

Bringing back those 70s retro vibes, every big-name skier from this era had a pair, and we are glad to say VALLON have brought the Ski Aviators into the 21st century.

Explorer II watch, Rolex

Rolex is famed for sponsoring the biggest names from sport and exploration worldwide, and JCK was no exception, a lifelong ambassador he also now serves as on the Rolex board of directors.

Groomer Beanie, Amundsen Sports

Simple pleasures. The bobble hat is a must-have for when the sun drops during the end-of-spring skiing evenings. We love Amundsen’s Groomer Beanie, (or if it were a little less mask-like, the Heroes Ski Mask - chapeau!)
