Does Your White Jacket and/or Pants Get Dirty?

I'm considering getting a white jacket or pants this year and was wondering from those with experience if it gets dirty fast. I'm also wondering how it comes out on film, like does it blend in with the snow or do you still stand out?
Thanks,
Kyle

I've been reppin a white jacket/pants for three years now and its not as bad as you would think. However, you definitely do have to wash them more often than you would a darker jacket or pants, but I wouldn't make a different choice based on how dirty it gets. You are on snow most of the time so it really won't be a hassle. If you do a lot of urban skiing where snow might not be as consistent or even existent then I would probably recommend a darker colored jacket or suit. But for the normal mountain its fine.

Have an air raid jacket in white/red. White is the worst try and stay away from it. Chairs in the lodge, lift seats, lift grease and rail marks are going to be the worse. To get my jacket cleaned I had to bring it to the dry cleaners and get is specially cleaned for $40. It is now white, but it will never be white like new from the store.

Nope, they won't ever get dirty. It's scientifically impossible as snow is white.

All I'm going to say is that I find it hilarious people have no problem buying yellow/orange/lime green/ light blue snow pants where dirt shows up JUST as easily, yet everyone seems to freak out as soon as they want to buy white pants.
