Here I am, heading over to H&M because I want to buy my 8 year old kid some Jogging pants. Why H&M? His mom buys stuff there, so I know sizing... no need to try shit on.

What are my eyes greeted with?






Like "Skiwear by move" from the pseudo-hip Mall clothing store?

Man, when I was your age stores like this ripped off Snowboarding.

Normies would rather buy fast fashion stuff instead of buying some ugly shit from walmart that's the same price and same quality.

These kits are for people who can't go skiing without making an 18 slide instagram post the next day

Snowboarding scares normies, skiing makes them feel safe.

I've seen plenty of big box stores sell ski jackets and pants in the past, usually by some weird in-house brand name. It comes and goes, I think.

Check these domes out at my local.

OP acting like skiing is some niche thing and not the favorite winter activity of the upper class and a massive mainstream tourism industry

to me ski fashion and skiing/ski culture are not the same. they can merge harmoniously like Jon and JL, or sunice and their ski gear. or get completely taken out of context from skiing, directly to fashion like tecnica moon boots. some people dont actually want to go skiing, they want to look like they go skiing. it doesnt make sense to me either but whatever...

Zalando is some mainstream Euro online clothes shopping giant. They are ubiquitous like Amazon.

I'm baffled that Laax chose them as their main sponsor this year.
