im looking into some outerwear for next year and im wondering how big is too big. I currently wear a black oakley jacket size medium baggy fit(fits like large). I was wondering if a 3XL hoodie and a 6XL tall tee underneath would be too big or unporportional. Im 5 ft 8 and 120 pounds for refrence. Thanks NS.

I  remember when I was younger and was obsessed with Tanner and Simon.  I also remember seeing what they wore and wanted to have the same, not because I wanted to look like them, but because i wanted to look better.  When I say look better I don't mean fashion. I wanted to look like I was a better skier and fit in, and not look like a fucking gaper.  I think this is the same thing that goes through kids heads that see pros today, but it has gotten rediculous.  6xl? Seriously?  If you want to ski in a dress fine have fun but you look retarded I don't care what anyone says.  Now obviously I think baggy ski clothes is okay, but not taken to extremes.  I don't wear tall tees or have giant clothes but yeah mine are baggy, I don't like tight clothes.  Honsetly guys we aren't black.  I would love to see one of you walk into a ghetto doing the bird and wearing a tall tee.  Obviously skiing is about fun and expressing yourself that is why I love it, but I just don't understand why kids dress like this.

if you are 5'8 120 you should not be worrying about clothes, you should be worrying about food.  eat some food work out and mabe you can fit into the 6xl

yeah i just got a 3xl hoody and it hangs 2inches down from my jacket... so it fits more like an L or XL no size tag on it so maybe it is haaha got it online. But yeah i think ima layer down to 6x it goes just past my kneeees. And no im not following a trend. I would be the only one at my mountain rocking a tall T at all... but i guess i am adding to it but i like the idea sooo. and no i dont go along with everything Tom Wallisch duz or wat everyone else does everyone loves i feel ghood. i know im going to get bitched at but that edit blew. Henrick self edit dooooopppe. i like wat i like i wear big clothes to school just not 6x. i feel they are comfartable and ilike them bottum line. Sorry for starting a NS war just asked a question for refrence.

Too funny!  Yeah the NSers from Great Britain can order their tall t's in plaid and ditch their poles for bag pipes.

I think you may have missed the sarcasm in my post.  Check my profile, I am definitely not a long T wearing kid.  I'm an old man (though I do like baggy stuff!)  And I have never done a cork 7 in my life.  Goofy 540s are about all I am willing to try now.  Anything else results in a trip to the hospital :)

i think someone who knows tom wallisch should pay him 20 bucks to post an edit of him on ns in super tight clothes and see how many kids start dressing in super tight clothes

I think we all know that the obvious answer to this question is that you must wear the biggest you can find.

if i was going to wear a 6x tall tee under something i would get an XL jacket. I think it would look goofy to have a medium jacket with a sundress underneath it.

these is probably one of the easiest problems to resolve. here how you do it
1. go to finish line or footlocker
2. pick out some tall tees of different sizes
3. try them on
a. take off the hanger
b. insert your head into the head hole
c. insert your arms into the arm holes
4. make a decision based on how the different sizes fit.
5. get a fuckin brain

ps. Ace, a 6xl you go to your boots.

6XL tall tee?

that might be a little too big. 3XL hoodie might be okay
definitely try the stuff on 1st though
see if they have like a XLT or 2XLT

6XL will look like dress though
