Piste happiness - Oversize t-shirt

Pistenglück - Oversize T-shirt

German for "slope happiness". From the slopes to the bar.

Pistenglück – the German word for "slope happiness". That pure, unfiltered joy of skiing followed by après-ski. Powder in your face at 10 am. A drink in your hand at 5 pm. Friends all around. That's Pistenglück.

The CozyNorth Pistenglück T-shirt captures that feeling. With 240 gsm cotton, an oversize fit and overcut shoulders, it's more than a tee – it's a statement about why we go to the mountains. Not for the skiing. Not for the après-ski. For the whole thing. For Pistenglück.

What does Pistenglück mean?

The feeling there's no English word for

English doesn't have a word for Pistenglück. "Mountain happiness"? Too dull. "Ski joy"? Too specific. The Germans understood this needed its own word. It's a lifestyle feeling, not just an activity.

Why we chose this quote

If Ein Schnapsidée is total chaos and Konterbier is the recovery, Pistenglück is what ties it all together. It's why we do it. Why we go to Åre, the Alps, the mountains. For Pistenglück – that perfect day when everything comes together.

Why a thick après-ski t-shirt makes a difference

60% thicker than standard t-shirts

Standard tees = 150 gsm. CozyNorth = 240 gsm = 60% thicker.

What it gives you:

• Durability: handles 50+ washes, keeps its shape and colour
• Warmth as a base layer: under a fleece or hoodie on the slopes = extra warmth without bulk
• Quality feel: feels expensive (because it is)
• Versatility: thick enough for spring and autumn, breathable enough for summer

100% cotton – natural, breathable, soft

We skip the poly blend. 100% cotton for:

• Better breathability (less sweat)
• A softer feel (especially after a few washes)
• Natural ageing (a vintage patina, not a worn-out look)
• A quality look and feel

Oversize fit & overcut shoulders

Wide, casual fit – a relaxed vibe

The Pistenglück T-shirt has a relaxed oversize fit. Perfect for the après-ski vibe: relaxed, comfortable, not tight. Works on its own or as a layering piece.

Overcut shoulders – a modern cut

Overcut shoulders = the shoulder seams sit further out. This gives you:

• A modern oversized silhouette
• Room to move (important when you're active on the slopes)
• Comfort even with a hoodie or fleece on top

Crew neck – timeless

A classic crew neck (round collar). Not a V-neck, not a henley. Just a crew neck – timeless, clean, works for everyone.

Technical specifications

Size guide

Measurements are of the garment itself, measured flat: width from armpit to armpit and length from the shoulder. Small deviations (±1 cm) may occur.

Fit tip: Oversize fit means relaxed, not tight. For a more fitted look, size down. For extra oversized, size up. Most people choose their usual size.
