Skida’s “Friends of Liz” fashion raising
money for U.S. Ski Team’s Stephen
Skida apparel has just
launched a special, limited-edi-
tion “Friends of Liz” headwear
line to provide financial support
for U.S. Ski Team athlete and
2010 Olympian Liz Stephen of
Montpelier, Vt.
Stephen, 24, handpicked the
fleece-lined print — with fuchsia,
turquoise, black and white checks
— and Skida founder Corinne
Prevot is donating 100 percent
of the material, design, and labor
costs for the limited-edition wear.
Proceeds from a “Friends of Liz”
hat or headband purchase ($25
to $35) goes directly toward off-
setting Stephen’s costs for pur-
suing cross country ski racing.
Stephen is a seven-time U.S. na-
tional champion and, this winter,
charged to career-best results at
the 2011 FIS Nordic World Ski
Championships in Oslo, Norway,
where she piloted the U.S. to
ninth in the 4 x 5K relay and was
the top North American finisher
in the 30K free, racing to 16th
place.
