Snow Gear Essentials
Snow Gear Essentials brings together clothing, footwear and outdoor gear for time spent outside in the snow. Browse practical options to help you prepare for winter outings, whether you're heading out for everyday activities or enjoying the season with family.
Outdoor Travel Bags
Outdoor travel bags are an essential part of any snow gear checklist, helping keep winter clothing, footwear, accessories and personal items organized from the drive to the mountain to the trip home. Choose from travel backpacks, duffel bags, rolling luggage and spacious totes to match your plans, whether you’re packing for a ski weekend, a family getaway, a day at the lodge or an extended winter vacation. Look for useful capacity, comfortable carry options and easy-access compartments that make it simpler to separate base layers, sweaters, gloves, hats and other cold-weather essentials. The right winter travel bag also helps bring order to bulky snow gear and everyday necessities. Pack ski goggles, hand warmers, scarves, socks and après-ski clothing in a roomy duffel, or choose a backpack for smaller loads and hands-free carrying between the car, airport and lodging. For family travel, multiple bags can make packing easier by giving each person space for their own winter layers and accessories. With practical designs, versatile sizes and classic outdoor style, L.L.Bean bags are ready to accompany snow-season adventures near home or farther afield.
