BOULDER, Colo., February 18th, 2022 – It takes dedication and hard work to succeed in the sport of ski racing. Our founder Lasse Kjus took that passion for ultimate performance to develop skiwear like no other. In search of speed, KJUS collaborated with another legendary athlete Ted Ligety and SHRED., a premium helmet, eyewear, and protection company co-founded by Ted, to develop the perfect race suit.⁠

We’re excited to introduce this limited-edition downhill ski race suit available for both adults and juniors and approved by the International Ski Federation (FIS), the highest international governing body for the sport. The FIS is responsible for the Olympic disciplines in skiing and snowboarding as well as setting its international rules, we’re delighted to have its support and approval behind this race suit.

The KJUS X SHRED. Ski Race Suit is engineered by the same crafter as Ted’s personal race suits and designed by KJUS. With these collaborations, we’re able to offer a high-quality professional-grade race suit that’s built for speed with a head-turning look.

After years of ski racing, I know how important a good suit is when it comes to performance. Flexibility and comfort are key and having a professionally made ski suit that’s designed to give you complete freedom of movement makes all the difference on those runs, said Ted.

KJUS president Brooke Mackenzie said: We are proud to support the next generation of ski racers with this collaboration with Ted’s company SHRED. KJUS has always supported avid skiers with our premium skiwear and we’re now pleased to offer ski racers a chance to improve their performance with this special race suit.

KJUS x SHRED is available now on kjus.com for both adults and juniors.
