im thinking of buying a pair of skiiny pants but i can find any really skinny ski pants iv looked at the westbeach cut pants but i want something skinnier. also what do you think of he skinny ski pants??????

 
holden for sure, but even their pants arent that tight, like a mens small or medium just has that fitted look with plenty of extra space. if you want like super tight, then you will probably just have to sew them, which is super easy. that or buy like womens holden or airblaster. but if you want my opinion, go for holden, buy it in a small if your not gonna sew it, or if you are gonna sew it, buy it in a medium so you have a little extra material to work with.
as for what i think about it, yeah its awesome!!! it makes more sense movement wise cause your not sagging down to your knees, its warmer, and it looks sweet! skiing is too full of one specific style, so i say get some and make skiing cooler!
 
my friend has a pair of foursquare pants. he says they are pretty comfy. he says they aren't tight or anything, but just right enough to give you flexibility without wearing baggy pants. he says he even sweats with those on and they come with side vents that open up,

i forget what they're called, but they're on foursquare's homesite
 
i got some cloudveil skinny pants for sale, they're a softshell so they stretch and wont be restrictive, 35 shipped if you want em, they're a tan color
 
I want to buy some L1 thunder pants. Does annyone know how they fit? Or if someone could find out for me.I dont want them skin tight like in the picture, and they need to be long enough

Im 6,1 (188cm) should i go L or xl?thanks for advising ++K
 
burton makes one pair that are hella tight. but i dont know hat they are actually called.holder has slim stuff. capp3l also has some sick skinny stuff, but capp3l is hella expencive.my best suggestion is get a pair of normalcut pants professionally tailored.
 
i dont think he means putting your pants on after your boots, he means putting the openings over your boots. but if i got that reversed i hope you arnt serious.
 
no you arent. have you ever worn them?

check holden, some Special Blend, some Sessions.

or just sew them up. i swear i should have copy and pasted this but here you are:

1) take pants, turn inside out

2) put on pants, pin or measure how skinny you wan them to be from the INSIDE of the leg

3) take off pants, sew along line. USE A STRAIGHT STITCH. you can either sew through the crotch which will give you a girls style pant, but will look better, or just sew up the legs which will give you weird folds in the ass.

4)turn right side in and try on. note where you need to change the fit and modify.

5)once you like the fit, turn them inside out again and sew with a cross stitch.

6)its your choice whether to cut the extra fabric out or not. i usually do but then you have to line it with tape or weather proof strip or something. depends on the pant.

A NOTE ON BOOTS

obviously your going to need to leave extra room for ski boots. this might create some weird folds on the inside of your pant if you just stop sewing so what you can do is steadily sew further and further outwards. then put the pants on and put the boots on and force the pants over the boots. DO THIS BEFORE YOU CROSS STITCH. this will tear the stitches where they need to be torn.

this will create a couple pockets of fabric you can just loosely sew together by hand so they don't look weird.

THERE youre done. its a mission and usually takes 2 or 3 trips back to the sewing machine. but you havent spent any money!
 
man if only someone was nice enough to post this when i was making my first skinny pants. it takes a while to figure it out on your own.

make sure you leave a little extra room in the knees! if you dont leave a little movement room or add some articulation youre gonna have some major mobility issues.
 
i just bought a pair of yellow west beach pants that are skinny but they don't even fit over my bots that well so i took them back:(
 
Check to see if you parents have any from their day. im rocking my dads old pant and they are quite slim. but sweet. or value village usually has a couple of older pairs. just make sure you wash them, i always get itchy just going into that store. haha
 
I'm not planning on tightening my pants, but out of interest do you only sew in the inside of the leg or do you cut the outside around the knee as well?
 
and if you are sewing them (its just the easiest thing), use a nylon thread since its the strongest and re-inforce the crotch area
 
personally i think that baggy pants look better, skinny ski pants remind me of noobs, but if thats your style and you like the feel and the looks of the skinny better then go for it!
 
i use to rock tight pants last year. the easyest thing to do is sew them. but if your gonna do it yourself get a shitty pair of pants first and try it on those first. you dont wanna mess up brand new pants.
 
there standard pants, dont get womens pants because those things are way to tight, just by some and sew them in
 
Custom sewed Planer Earth Pants. Crazy tight. Took a pair of trashed pants, and sewed up the inseams. Not a daily wear pant, but super fun to break out some days.
