Starting in April 2025, ordering will open for a new lineup of non-ski-event, nationally approved uniform options. They are all designed to keep you looking sharp and professional while representing the organization off the snow providing first aid services - or simply representing the CSP in a formal setting.
A uniform that works as hard as you do
Each item in the new collection has been carefully selected to meet the needs of Canadian Ski Patrol members. The uniforms feature strategic white cross placements and are crafted to withstand the demands of your important work.
Women’s and men’s PS softshell jacket
A lightweight softshell jacket great for cool spring, summer and fall days. May also be a great mid-layer for alpine patrollers. With four-way stretch fabric, it includes zippered chest and hand pockets, adjustable bottom hem, brushed fleece inside collar and hand pockets, and elastic cuffs. The polyester-blend outer material is durable water repellency (DWR) treated for added protection. There are white crosses on each sleeve, and a white cross on back. Includes a Velcro patch for attaching a CSP name badge (must be the HH-sized name badge).
Women’s and men’s PS Riftline short-sleeve polo shirt
A versatile short-sleeve polo shirt made with 100 per cent Polymaide waffle pique fabric. It includes a ribbed collar and cuffs for increased comfort. There are white crosses on each sleeve, and a white cross on the back. Includes a Velcro patch for attaching a CSP name badge (must be the HH-sized name badge).
Women’s and men’s Fox short-sleeve shirt
A tailored button-up short-sleeve shirt using a two-way stretch fabric made of 100 per cent polyester. Includes a chest pocket with button, and a back yoke with ventilation for extra comfort. White crosses on each sleeve, and a white cross on back. Includes a Velcro patch for attaching a CSP name badge (must be the HH-sized name badge).
Women’s Badgerette and men’s Badger long-sleeve shirt
A tailored button-up long-sleeve shirt using a two-way stretch fabric made of 100 per cent polyester. Includes a chest pocket with button, and a back yoke with ventilation for extra comfort. White crosses on each sleeve, and a white cross on back. Includes a Velcro patch for attaching a CSP name badge (must be the HH-sized name badge).
Women’s and men’s TECH short-sleeve tee
A short-sleeve technical shirt made of odour-resistant and lightweight 100 per cent recycled polyester materials. Includes white crosses on each sleeve, a white cross on the back and a white cross on the chest. Due to the light weight of the TECH material, a Velcro patch is not included on this item. CSP recommends members wear a plastic CSP-approved nametag.
Women’s and men’s TECH long -sleeve tee
Just like the TECH short-sleeve t-shirt, in a long-sleeve version. Made of odour-resistant and lightweight 100 per cent recycled polyester materials. Includes white crosses on each sleeve, a white cross on the back and a white cross on the chest. Due to the weight of the TECH material, a Velcro patch is not included on this item. CSP recommends members wear a plastic CSP-approved nametag.
Women’s and men’s PS convertible pant
This pant is one you may find yourself using nearly 12 months of the year. Made with four-way stretch polyester-blend fabric, these pants have an adjustable bottom leg, five pockets, belt loops, a gusset in the crotch for ease of movement, along with articulated knees for better comfort and fit. The material also includes a durable water repellency (DWR) treatment.
Women’s DOE and men’s STAG mountain bike short
A great short designed with mountain bikers in mind. Made with four-way stretch polyester-blend fabric, these shorts have an adjustable waist, mechanical ventilation zippers, multiple pockets and a gusset in the crotch for movement freedom. Includes a white cross on the font left leg near the hem.
Women’s and men’s PS short
A great short without too many bells and whistles. Made from a polyester and elastane-blend material, it has back pockets, a thigh pocket on the right leg, front fly with zipper closure, and belt loops. Material is durable water repellency (DWR) treated.
Women’s and men’s FOX quick-dry short
If your patrol duties in the spring, summer or fall have you in potentially wet conditions, the FOX quick-dry short is your best choice. It is made with a quick-dry fabric (polyamide and elastane) and has a four-way stretch and gusset in the crotch for movement freedom. The FOX quick-dry short also has five pockets and belt loops for greater adjustability.
HH-sized CSP name badges
Remember that HH upper-body garment styles require members to have a CSP name badge sized specifically for HH. The HH-sized name badges currently used on the HH alpine jackets and vests are compatible with these non-ski event upper-body garments.
