I'm getting some 2016 Bent Chetlers, and I have no clue what bindings I should put on them, I know I should stick some really nice ones on them, but I'm money tight now, what should I put on them?

if youre looking on the more inexpensive end, i would go for the rossignol axial. ive had them on all my skis for the last 4 years and they work really well for everything. you can usually find them pretty cheap too

I guess money isn't a huge deal because I work at a ski shop so I get deals on bindings, but I'm still looking for something that'll work great and last a while, but won't look gay af on the ski. I was thinking maybe Rossi or Atomic bindings. Or marker. Those are the main ones I get deals from.

You work at a ski shop and can't figure out what bindings you want...?

Get sth2 or attack 13. You want a wide screw set for better power transmission on fatter skis. They're also durable and a low stack height. Both killer bindings

Well I haven't worked here long enough to know, and I don't sell bindings/skis. I'm in the rental department. Like j started this season, so of course I'm trying to take advantage of the deals I get.
I just wanna get a couple picked out options that I should go with.

NEW QUESTION:

I'm thinking maybe go touring bindings...I don't go touring a ton, but would like to get into it. Is that a dumb idea?

I would go with marker griffons, or dukes for touring.

jester if you are going straight alpine binding

duke if you want the AT option, but those really suck to tour with (heavy AF) and if any of your friends have a good AT setup (e.g. dynafits on light skis) you are going to be significantly slower and probably not having a good time

If your touring:
They are all pretty good. I ride Baron 13s, they are heavy but strong and cheap.

If you are staying in the resorts:
I live the Marker setup, rossignol and look P14 bottle bindings are best I have every rode on.
