Kappa has become the Official Technical Sponsor and Supplier of the Fédération Française de Ski, the French ski federation, in a deal that runs until 2034. To launch the partnership, the Italian brand has unveiled a red, white and blue collection for the athletes, coaches and staff who will compete in championships during the 2026/27 season, across alpine skiing, ski cross and snowboard cross.
Winter sports have become a core part of Kappa’s calendar. The brand already dresses national teams such as the US Ski and Snowboard team, and every season it presents ski collections for amateurs too. The French collection was developed by Kappa’s Research & Development department with tested technical materials, for both the intensity of racing and the long hours of training.
The 4CENTO and 6CENTO lines for the French ski team
For racing, the 4CENTO line includes the 400 KOMBAT FFS suit. It uses Kappa Ski Vacuum System Technology® and a Skin Fit cut: the suit actively releases air to keep the athlete aerodynamic and fast.
For everyday training, the 6CENTO range has insulated jackets, trousers and mid-layers that can be adapted with taped seams and ventilation zips. The standout piece is the 6CENTO 602C FFS jacket, a protective shell with a two-layer stretch construction, a snow skirt and elasticated cuffs.
Where to buy the Kappa x Fédération Française de Ski collection
The collection is available on the Kappa website and at the official Kappa store in Val d’Isère, together with the brand’s other winter pieces.
