Ski trousers, snowboard trousers, snow trousers - technology and perfect fit

Regardless whether you need ski trousers for men, women or kids, they are an essential element of your winter gear. Without them, you won't be able to stay warm and safely ski down the slope. The trousers are made of high-quality fabric with a DWR coating and taped seams for protection against moisture. These models are also equipped with a membrane that will not only protect you against wind and ensure garment breathability, but also protect you against getting soaked after contacting snow. If you want to choose the best trousers for skiing or snowboarding, pay attention to details such as comprehensive pocket system, hooks and straps, reinforced elements, suspenders and ventilation.

How are ski trousers different from snowboard trousers?

The difference can be noticed in cut – ski trousers are more fitted, while snowboard trousers are looser so as not to restrict movement. Moreover, ski trousers often come with an elevated back to protect the lower back against cold. Snowboard trousers are sometimes reinforced in the bottom area to make falls less painful. Snowboard trousers are often equipped with hooks and special straps in the upper part of the trousers and lower part of the leg, to provide better protection against snow. There is also difference between reinforced elements – ski trousers more often come with profiled knees and reinforced trouser leg bottom to prevent material from getting sliced by a ski.

What membrane should the ski pants be equipped with?

The main function of a membrane is to provide waterproofness and breathability. It is described by two parameters presented as, e.g. 8,000/10,000. It means that its waterproofness equals 8,000 while breathability amounts to 10,000. Winter trousers with 5,000-8,000 membrane provide low protection against snow. That's why they're right for people who can boast some skiing skills and those who ski mainly in nice weather. Skiers and snowboarders that fall often or want to hit the slopes even in bad weather should pick a model with membrane rating that starts at 10,000. The most advanced 4F products have the waterproofness of 20,000.

What are key parameters of snow trousers?

Snow trousers must be equipped with a membrane and additional technologies protecting against moisture permeation. Leg length, thermal comfort, breathability and additional features protecting against snow from getting inside your trousers are also important. It's worth finding ones that fit perfectly your size, figure, and gender.
