Vibrant colors or black and white? Snowsport trends in 2020

We visited this year's sports trade fair ISPO in Munich and took a look at the new fashion trends in the world of winter sports. Good news: There is something for everyone!

Striking looks with bright colors, patterns and extraordinary material mixes could be found in abundance at the fair, as well as the exact opposite - black and white combinations. More restrained colors and patterns were also displayed. The classic blue-and-red combination was especially popular. Check out our photo gallery to find out what trends you can expect next season.

If it's gaudy colors and prints you're looking for, Sportalm Kitzbühel is just the right brand for you.

Bright colors like orange and pink dominate Bogner's collection as well.

At first sight, the Aerismo Jackorak MPC Extreme by Tenson continues the line of colorless fashion. However, the zipper at the back hides a colored segment. It expands the jacket, allowing the wearer to easily fit a back protector underneath. The Jackorak is among the 2020 ISPO AWARD winners.

Schöffel's purely black ski outfit comes with a brand new technology: INTELLITEX® Heat warms both jacket and pants. The heating elements located in the thigh and back areas are activated via a button and can be set to three different heat levels. On cold days, the technology offers comfort as well as protection and an improvement of performance. When muscles are warm, they are stronger and less prone to injury.
