About Snowgum Jindabyne
Snowgum is a proudly Australian outdoor clothing and gear brand with deep roots in the snow sports community, and their Jindabyne store is a key stop for visitors gearing up for Perisher. Originally founded as a specialist ski and alpine wear company, Snowgum has expanded into a full-range outdoor brand while maintaining its reputation for durable, well-designed cold-weather gear. The Jindabyne outlet sits on the main Kosciuszko Road strip and stocks the full Snowgum range alongside select third-party brands.
While Snowgum's primary focus is retail rather than equipment rental, the Jindabyne store offers snow clothing hire — jackets, pants, gloves, beanies, and base layers — which fills a critical gap for visitors who own skis but don't have adequate snow clothing. They also stock accessories like goggles, neck warmers, hand warmers, and thermal socks that are easy to forget when packing. The staff are experienced snow-goers who can advise on layering systems for the variable conditions common in the Australian Alps, where mornings can be sub-zero and afternoons surprisingly warm.
Snowgum's advantage is brand quality at reasonable prices — their own-label jackets and pants are designed specifically for Australian conditions and priced well below European ski wear brands. For families making their first trip to the snow, Snowgum Jindabyne is the place to outfit everyone affordably without sacrificing warmth or waterproofing. Their central location and generous opening hours during ski season make it a convenient stop on the way to or from the mountain.
