Partnership brings new opportunities to skiers
Iglu Ski has agreed a partnership with retailer Decathlon to bring new products and services to skiers.
A particular highlight is the opportunity for skiers to trade in old gear, and the old gear will receive a ‘Second Life’ when it is resold by Decathlon. It’s a really straightforward way to ensure skis don’t end up in landfill.
