Hermès, the French luxury goods company, has started to sell a very expensive collection of ski clothing and accessories made in France. Many of the products are manufactured in a French factory that has been making Hermès swimwear since last year. Some of the clothing is made in waterproof leather. Leather is also used in the snow helmets and in the snow goggles. The most expensive item in the line is a down jacket in leather selling for €9,000.  The line is currently sold in about 100 Hermès stores around the world. A second collection is already under development for the next winter season.
