SlideStar is a custom winter racing apparel manufacturer specializing in speed skating suits, cross-country ski race suits, alpine racewear, and cut-resistant competition apparel for teams, clubs, academies, distributors, and sports brands.
Advanced Cut-Resistant Fabric Development & OEM/ODM Manufacturing for Ski Racing Brands
SlideStar specializes in the development and manufacturing of cut-resistant ski base layers for ski racing brands, sportswear companies, ski clubs and professional distributors.
With access to high-performance cut-resistant fabrics capable of targeting FIS-DITF 4-star and 5-star performance levels, we support customers in developing protective ski base layers with different fabric constructions, garment designs and customization requirements.
From fabric sourcing and product development to sample making and bulk manufacturing, SlideStar provides integrated OEM/ODM solutions for cut-resistant ski apparel.
The performance of a cut-resistant ski base layer starts with its fabric construction.
SlideStar works with specialized cut-resistant fabric resources to support the development of ski protection garments targeting different levels of cut resistance.
Our fabric development capabilities include materials designed to target:
FIS-DITF 3-star performance
FIS-DITF 4-star performance
FIS-DITF 5-star performance
Depending on the selected fabric construction and test results, different materials can be considered for specific product development projects.
We can discuss fabric selection, garment construction and testing requirements according to your target performance level.
Important: SlideStar is a cut-resistant ski apparel manufacturer, not a FIS-certified manufacturer. Our access to fabrics capable of targeting 4-star and 5-star performance does not mean that every fabric, finished garment or SlideStar product has received FIS approval or certification. Final performance and compliance must be verified through the applicable testing and approval procedures.

The final star rating depends on the applicable FIS-DITF testing requirements and verified test results. Fabric selection alone does not establish the rating of a finished garment.
