As any snow poser will tell you, what you drive to the car park at the ski fields is perhaps just as important as how much Moncler gear you"re draped in and how you pronounce apr s ski". They"ll also not like being called a snow poser, in case you"re curious.But what to take? If you roll up in a black or silver Range Rover, you"ll likely lose it in the car park, buried in the snow and a sea of black and silver Range Rovers. If you take a G-Class, that says something very definite about you (we"ll leave the specifics to your imagination). And, if you take a van, random tourists will jump in, expecting a lift back down to town and wondering how much to tip you. But not this van, says Citroen. This one"s purely for friends (or big families), who spend their lives at Zermatt, Verbier and Chamonix. And, apparently, who like to be colour-coordinated. Yes, it wouldn"t be snow sports without a raft of branded merchandise in which to wrap yourself, and Citroen has jumped straight down the black run in that regard. So, there are branded blousons, beanies and blue-visored helmets, scarfs, parkas and even iPad covers. And, if you were wondering what exactly a blouson is, it is at least in Citroen"s mind a puffy vest. We"d likely disagree on that point, but this isn"t TopFashion.com, so let"s move on.
