Tight Pants and Skiing

only if:

A. You're a racer

B. You're over 50

C. You can really, really shred the BC

D. You're a superhero
 
Not EMO pants but retro pants all right like Blake Nyman in the 11th hour but maybe a little looser then that.

My reason for slightly tight panst is that if the pants are to baggy you can't move in them at all
 
everyone has a different idea of what fits...

i won't hate on tight pants, i just prefer the way larger, baggier ones look.
 
not really cause if you were the pants where they should be worn you can do all sorts of movements and in order to stay warm you just where more under the pants like one or two pairs of long under wear
 
Jon Hartman wears jeans with no insulation in the backcountry, miles from any warmth. Something about freezing his emotions...

Exactly. Tight pants= more layers= less movement. baggys good as long as its not fucking huge.
 
From what I've seen it dosen't really look like that Hartman guy can pull it off that well either. Something about tight pants and skiing makes him look constantly flaily/sketchy, in pictures anyways.
 
i like em somewhat baggy, but i dont go overboard. how comfortable can it be to have to reach back to pull them up every 3 seconds. sure it is the OMG GANGSTA thing to do.. but isn't very practical. sure you can wear a belt, but i find it still doesn't work right
 
He pulled it off pretty well here:

Actually, tighter pants restrict the amount of dead (cold) airspace between your body, which creates heat, and the layer... but they do get wet, hence, you have to be a badass
 
do whatever you like, i just like my pants a little baggy, not like xxl, i think baggy is just more comfy
 
I think the really tight pants looks weird because the boot is massive, the pants should atleast have the same diameter as the boots. However I hate baggy pants when I'm not skiing.
 
wear whatever you want unless it is a skirt- that really would be gay. but plenty of people besides emo kids wear tight pants; 80s'metal gods, Hessians, Ninjas, skaters, greasers, punks and a whole assortment of aerobics teachers.
 
Most tighter pants are made out of stretch material so you can still move in them just fine. And you don't have to worry about your XXL's falling off all the time and just ski....
 
just that jibij hartman dude can rock it well, and i have yet to see it look decent on somone else...
