Our Mission
Playful by design. Grounded in function. Skida brings joy and whimsy to the outdoors through limited-edition designs, original styles, and a fresh perspective.
our origin
In the winter of 2008, Skida founder Corinne Prevot picked up some patterned stretch fabrics from the May Store in Lyndonville, Vermont, and made colorful hats for her cross-country ski teammates and friends at Burke Mountain Academy. The demand for her colorful hats soon grew—and so did the variety of prints she offered. As the buzz snowballed beyond the New England ski community, new products joined the line to keep everyone protected and joyful across the seasons.
Women-Led
Skida is proudly women-founded and women-led.
“As an independent, women-owned brand, we get to choose the language, the messaging, and the purpose behind everything we do. As a business, leaning into our own independence is an expression of freedom and flex on our femininity,” —Corinne Prevot, Skida Founder & Creative Director
From design to adventure, we champion creativity, leadership, and the power of women. With intention and style, our team brings warmth to every product—and every pursuit. Thank you for sharing the Skida love and for supporting our women-led business!
Responsible by Design
Seventeen years after Corinne sewed her first hat, our dedication to local, small-scale production lives on through our core Vermont Collection, which includes our original Alpine and Nordic styles. To keep pace with the growing demand for these products, we’ve partnered with a network of local sewists who carry on a rich tradition of cottage industry in our state. Through our work with them, we remain committed to local production, limited edition products, and a fresh perspective.
buy a hat, donate a hat
Skida Plus One [+1]
Skida [+1] is our way of giving warmth where it’s needed most. For every Alpine or Running Hat purchased using a Skida +1 promo code, we donate a hat to a cancer center — your order, plus one more for someone in need. To participate, visit the program page, choose a hospital's donation code, and apply it in your cart at checkout.
Today, Skida [+1] continues to spread warmth to hospitals across the country, one hat — and one act of kindness — at a time.

a shared spirit of performance & progress
U.S. Ski & Snowboard Team Partnership
Skida is proud to be the official headwear partner of the U.S. Ski & Snowboard Team through the 2026 Winter Games. This multi-year collaboration includes a co-branded line of hats, neck warmers, and headbands, each of which is designed for performance and rooted in our longtime connection to elite athletes.
From the bold Cloudspin print to the high-vis Neon Waves design worn by XC coaches, this partnership celebrates a shared commitment to excellence, individuality, and fresh perspectives — on snow and beyond.
Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion
“Through product rooted in print and function, we aim to provide a style for everyone. We believe the outdoors is for all and that accessible, functional gear is key to inclusivity. We strive to create something for everyone so we may all take to adventure feeling like our truest selves.” – Corinne Prevot, Skida Founder
Skida celebrates uniqueness and does not tolerate hate. We believe everyone deserves to experience the joy of the outdoors. Through our partnerships, events, sponsorships, and general attitude toward building community, we are committed to making space for all—regardless of race, gender, beliefs, background, or ability.
