Odlo has been designing technical clothing since 1946. Originally, the brand produced thermoregulating suits for Norwegian speed skaters and cross-country skiers. Now based in Switzerland at the foot of the Alps, it remains one of the leading names in base layers and thermal clothing. Whether for skiing, hiking, trail running or running, you'll find Odlo technical clothing suited to your outdoor activities. Discover all Odlo collections available at Snowleader at the best prices!

Odlo, the benchmark for thermal base layers

This is the brand's core expertise. Thermal tops, bottoms, base layers: Odlo offers men's base layers, women's base layers and kids' base layers, suitable for all winter activities. The brand was a pioneer in developing the first synthetic base layer in the 1970s, followed by the three-layer system that became a mountain standard. Odlo technical clothing is designed to retain body heat while ensuring effective moisture wicking.

Stay warm, stay dry

Ever wondered why some winter outings stay comfortable while others become a struggle after the first break? The answer often lies in your choice of base layer. Odlo base layers are designed to keep you warm while wicking away sweat, even during intense activity. Silver ion fibres help reduce odours, while zoned constructions optimise ventilation where your body needs it most. The result: you stay dry and warm, whether you're skiing, snowshoeing or hiking in winter.

Technologies designed for performance

Odlo products are tested and worn by the Swiss-Ski Nordic teams, meeting the high standards of winter sports. From quick-drying fabrics to thermoregulating materials, every Odlo piece is designed to support your body during activity without restricting movement. The brand develops technical clothing adapted to different intensities and weather conditions.

Odlo collections available at Snowleader

Beyond base layers, Odlo offers a complete range of technical clothing for skiing, hiking, trail running and running. Discover the brand's various collections:

How to choose your Odlo base layer

An Odlo base layer is chosen in two parts: top and bottom, to cover your whole body depending on the cold and activity level. An Odlo thermal top is worn directly against the skin, under a fleece or jacket, to keep your torso warm without excess sweat. The Odlo thermal bottom completes your outfit for your legs, with the same focus on moisture management.

Get equipped with Odlo for trail running and running

Beyond skiing and the mountains, Odlo also offers a dedicated range for trail running and running, with Odlo trail running and running clothing designed for intense activity. To complete your kit, also find men's trail running and running clothing and women's trail running and running clothing available at Snowleader, from all brands.

Odlo FAQ

Can you wear the same Odlo base layer for skiing and trail running?

This mainly depends on activity intensity and season: a lightweight base layer suits both, while a warmer model is better for the coldest days and less suited to intense trail running.

How do you know if you should choose a fitted or looser base layer?

A base layer works best close to the body, as it wicks sweat more efficiently when in contact with the skin. A loose garment can reduce this effectiveness.

Do silver ion fibres require special care?

Regular machine washing at low temperature is usually enough to maintain their properties. It's best to avoid too much fabric softener, which can coat the fibres and reduce their effectiveness.

Should you change base layers between skiing and winter hiking?

Not necessarily, if your chosen model is versatile. For more intense hikes that make you sweat more, a lighter and more breathable base layer is often more comfortable than a thick model designed for skiing.
