soo as a dude i am totally not embarrassed to tell people that i shave my legs as soon as ski season starts. a few years ago i got tired of my ski socks pulling my leg hair and just feeling awkward as all hell, on a whim i thought maybe ill try shaving my legs and iv ben doing it ever since. id like to think i'm not the only guy on the mountain who does this but if i am i'm okay with it because my legs now feel absolutely awesome!

bash on me if yah want but this is defiantly a don't knock it till you try it thing.

I actually do the exact opposite. I grow out my leg hair until it's thick enough to keep my legs equally as warm as ski socks. Eventually it gets so thick I don't even need to wear ski pants.

On the real though, men should be able to stand the pain.

OP if you let it stay it'll just grind off from skiing.


Don't let that stop you from having silky smooth legs if that's your thing though!

I have never heard of anyone doing that before... I guess it's interesting to say the least.

I just let the boots take the hair away. After a solid 10 days on the hill most of the hair on my shins and calves is gone.

I shave my legs, but that's because I don't like the feeling of hair on my socks.
I have friends who have the same problem as you, and they tried a different brand of socks and their problem was solved.

I usually just shave everything on my body and super glue it to my face so I have an epic powder beard.

I did this when I actually skiied park and got shinbang. Diminished the resulting pain some. But not anymore.

I can't grow leg hair on my shins where my boots press against anymore, so....not really an issue for me at this point. Definitely don't shave them though, dude. C'mon. You must have some really fucking hairy ass legs, in which case, you must look very silly with bushy eyebrows and smooth legs.
