Just for fun I want to see everyone make their own pants tier list based off looks only. I thought this would be fun to do and maybe also do it with other kinda of ski gear. I made a list of the pants I know off the top of my head but feel free to add more(this is not my rankings just a list to help out)

haraut apparel
sovyrn
lizard stuff
arsenic answer pants
woofbiz
capeesh
Anytides
random thrifted pants
Virtika

Woof is absolute worst that’s all I know. Just rectangles the colorful ones are especially bad.

I don’t even know what capeesh’s look like

anytides don’t look bad but I wouldn’t call em the best

harlauts look good baggy or skinnier yes I don’t care if everyone obviously has em

Answer pants have a weird narrowing shape but can look good with the bigger sizes. Made really well and are pretty versatile regarding temperature

virtika shells have decent shape just horrible company and ugly ass color choices. Made pretty well In my experience.

thrifted shit is too subjective to judge.


every pair is just not waterproof plain and simple. So maybe prepare for wet ass and legs on rainy days.

Lizard stuff seems pretty sick and decently shaped. Nice n simple


sovyrn also can look sick but have too much a parachute vibe. Look like they’re made pretty well. Not the biggest fan of some of the crazier colors.

Like those ridiculous ones sleepy grill rode for a bit.

Mf's find out baggy pants is trendy, throw logic out the window, and buy the most ridiculous pants they can find because its poppin (honestly sleepy grill is an exception, he has good taste imo)

Its the same with poles. Long poles are in and dudes be rockin MASSIVE poles that look dumb

Or when kuura koivisto started pole swinging and then dudes start pole swinging landings off a 180, it looks unnatural as fuck

Following the trend is fine if you really fw it but don't just find out something is trending and sacrifice aesthetic to be the most trendy. Its a bad look

i feel like the prices y'all mention sometimes aren't too low, and you're not even always getting decent waterproofing? on ski pants..??

I'm from Finland, so I will never order a pair from the USA, since the shipping will be too much. Take that into consideration reading this:

lizard stuff (makes them on his own, immaculate vibes, would love a pair)
capeesh (wish i had a pair but a little bit too expensive)
harlaut apparel (easiest to get at least for me and alright price too)
wearleathers (heard good things)
bsrabbit (simo peltola sponsor (the finnish guy))
sovryn (unique and will be 1/1!)
woofbiz (cool sick pairs)
arsenic pant (cool video they made about them)
anytides (lil too expensive)
offset.apparel (cool concept for having an option for a custom pair)
If you're lucky at thrifts then would be top 1, since you might actually find a good pair (I've never gotten ski apparel from thrifts)
virtika (no)
