becasue of reading a few resent threads, i have come to realize that there are some fads this year and this thread is dedicated to posting any new fads, so those of us that are not "coll" can stear clear of these, thus not looking like a fucking tool...point in case..

1.FUR HOODED JAKCETS...
 
I wish white boys thinking they are gangsters fad would leave, but unfortunately they wont. There is nothing gangster about skiing. Steer clear of that one.
 
i want to know who told Quiksilver/Billabong/various expensive ripoff jeans makers that it was cool to splatter paint on their most expensive shit. I painted my place in september and HEY ive got jeans just like em now.
 
I've noticed quite a number of those lately, some a little different than others. You'd think that just having a regular hat would do the job right, but that is not the case. It seems that the "cool" hats are shaped like condoms, maybe they protect your head better?.
 
popped collars and shirts tucked into belts i want to roundhouse kick every popped collar (thats a lot). i mean really, have some originallity! also as previously stated pre-holed jeans i mean WHY i dont want a pair of jeans that looks like they are a hobos. i mean if you are wearing like you favourite pair of old jeans and you have had them for like years and they have holes in them then thats awesome but pre-holed? common!
 
not to been seen as a racist, however style seems to be everything in skiing now. One style=gorilla steeze. TO get low and gorilla, and for photos/ movies baggy clothing is what is needed. and baggy clothing=gangster. How many gangsters do you see out on the street wearing jeans as tight as your moms. So to your quote, there is alot gangster about skiing. Sorry.
 
Ohh Em Eff Gee. All of you need to get your heads out from under those rocks. These Fads have been around for the last atleast 2-3 years.

Knitted Hats? Fur Hoods? Bandanas? Ripped Jeans? Trucker Hats? Gash. Im sorry, Im not trying to sound over-exasperated or too much like a goober, but these trends have pretty much already reached their peak and died away by now. I mean, if you want to knit pick about current trends, why not ones that are actually current? The popped collar trend someone said was a good example, but how about scarfs? Or Two hoodies ( Im down with that) or Wearing Anon or R.E.D. Helmets (both are dope) and wearing touques under helmets (dope as well) and goggle sag (also dope) Im really not trying to harp too much, but it just seems to me, in my opinion only, that those examples are not good.
 
spending more than $5 on poles is a new fad, although mixing and matching poles should really be the fad.
 
Good point, although it only brushes the surface of "Gangster". How many ggangsters do you see on the mountain? Not posers, but full on gangsters? Although baggy clothes can be attributed to the image of a gangster, baggy clothes go hand in hand with other styles such as Gothic and inline skateing. Gothics sure as hell arent gangster.
 
No, you are wrong. Just becasue skiers wear baggy clothes it doesnt mean skiing is gangsta. I belive the point the other guy was tryin to make was that skiing is a sport for the privilaged middle/upper class. "gangstas" dont ski. And imitating them is prety pointless becasue the lifestyles do not mix. Gangsta and skiing is contradictory.
 
defintely fur hoods. Nobody except middle aged ladies had them before the pros started rocking them. Now everybody wants to be cool and buys them. STOP BEING TOOLED AROUND.
 
i dunno about any one else but a lot of people i know have started spelling out internet lingo and saying them in real life. not ski related but its really annoying. examples would be tying "slash" instead of "/" or saying like "oh em gee" instead of "omg". jesus people isnt that the opposite reason for why internet lingo was created in the first place? and please keep it to the internet, stop saying these things out loud in the real world.
 
The big trend of the year is girls tucking their pants into their boots. I've seen it at least a hundred times in the past month and it might have looked good 1% of the time.
 
popped collars were huge, thank god that they are dying out.

Bud Light Presents: Real Men of Genius:

Today we salute you, Mr. Constant Collar Putter Upper. You, bedecked in popped collar, teach us that we no longer have to live with a cold, back of the neck. Sure, your pink alligator polo may look feminine to some, but not to the 17 other frat guys wearing the same thing at the bar. Where others may see thoughtless fashion conformity, you preach a higher gospel. You preach of a world where it's okay for a man to go tanning. You ask "why can't we wear make-up, and use shampoo with lavender essence?" So crack open an ice-cold Bud Light, Mr. Abercrombie (or is it Fitch?), because we all know, when we really need a piece of gum, you might have one...in your man purse.
 
the eskimo boots? those were big last year and the only thing i enjoyed about them is that girls seemed to love wearing skirts in freezing weather with those boots. that was nice
 
Any boots, they use those ugg things or whatever most often, but it's the tucking of the pants, often jeans, into them is apparently the "big thing" around here now. I don't get it.
 
i have aldready seen like 3 people with rainbow suspenders. and i was mad because i have always worn suspenders to hold my pants up.
 
there are so many things that i can comment on, but im not. because i would be a post whore.i hate fads. i have had these pantsfor a few years. they were realyy weathered. holes, torn bottoms. well someone asked me were i got them because they were cool
