Jacket... Or Tent?

Could someone please fill me in on this uber-sized XXXXXXXL jacket phase that seems to be on the rise? I haven't seen it round my post here in the mid-west, but it looks like it's exploding everywhere else. I'm not following the motives at all here. I mean in a sport dominated by skinny white guys like myself, who are we really kidding?

The word that seesms to be thrown around alot is "ghetto", something that seems to decieve me without end. It doesn't matter where you are in the continent, Vermont, Utah, Whistler, it won't take long to notice that your local ski slope is one of the furthest points from the local slums.

On top of that, they deduct from proformance if anything, we go and spend hundreds on skis that way mere pounds so that we got room for our twenty pound "ghetto tent".

What are we thinking?

That solve your problem?
 
XXXXl is the shit ya huuurd. trust me if you saw someone doing a sick ass cork 7 in tight pants it would look like shit, if they are thugged out in a huge ass jacket down to their knees and some Saga pants it looks freakin amazing and badass. skiing is a sport for gangsters. JEA JEA JEA DIPSET BITCH
 
No one said to ski in plum smugglers.

But it's a XXXXXL? Who's gonna take your steeze seriously when you look like an animated pine tree with your ass hanging out?

 
i remember the days when form followed function...it was so boring back then.

I have a question. Why do real gangstas wear baggy clothes?
 
Hmmm, is my oakley XXL onepiece with the crotch one inch above my knees really necessary...NO! Does it look plain stupid awesome standing in a liftline confusing old people...HELL YES! Are my other ski pants this winter a pair of slim-fit cowboy cut waterproofed wrangler jeans...YEP! Does it matter what other people wear on the ski hill...na, juss worry about yourself maing, let the kiddies do what they want, they aren't hurting anyone.
 
This is the answer I was looking for, this guy put it well.

It's as much to disinguish ourselves from those before us as it is to look good.

Slim-fit-cowboy-cut-waterproofed-wranglers... heheh I didn't know they made those, but that's pretty sweet.

Sorry if I offended y'all, was just looking for a little feed back, this fad hasn't really reached our little niche yet, saw it making a huge prescense on NS, wanted to know what it was about. Muchos gracias.

I saw Tanner Hall today wearing clothes that would've been baggy on the 300 pound man next to me at the airport, so rockin' the tent must be cool! Yeah, hop on the bandwagon!
 
I still think carhartt coveralls are the best... I may have to get myself one this year. The fact that they aren't waterproof sucks, though.
 
i dont kno about everyone else but its just so much more comfortable to wear baggy pants and jackets. it makes you feel all floatly and shit
 
LSD makes you feel all floaty and shit, but good luck finding that in the Ghetto, to expensive for the brothas, and so are skis. You show me a skier and I'll show you a white dude from the suburbs.
