Men's Ski & Snowboard Pants

Loading spinner
The search for the perfect pair of men’s ski pants (or snowboard pants) can be trying. But if you’re planning to hit the slopes this winter, you’re going to want to put the time in to research which outdoor clothing is best for you. The last thing you want to be left with are snow pants that aren’t properly waterproof or a toque that doesn't keep your head warm.

The best men’s ski pants on the market

Who knew that there was so much variety when it comes to men’s ski pants? The main categories of pants are “uninsulated”, “insalted”, and “soft shell”. No one type of pants is superior to any other. The kind that you’ll want to buy depends on the conditions on the ski hill as well as your personal preference.
While uninsulated pants can be adapted to meet many different weather conditions with layering, they’re not ideal for super cold environments. Insulated pants will be best suited to most skiing conditions. Softshell pants are highly breathable ...and great for milder weather where you don’t have to worry about moisture.

Tips for choosing men’s ski/snowpants

The best ski pants for men should offer a comfortable, flexible fit. Although you might think that you’ll want something tight-fitting to keep you aerodynamic, you’ll actually want to invest in a pair of pants that offers ventilation and breathability. Believe it or not, it is possible to overheat on the ski hill.
You’re also going to want to make sure that your ski pants can keep you dry. There is nothing worse than getting soaking wet halfway through a ski outing. That’s one way to find yourself sequestered in the chalet all day. Not the worst way to pass your time, but also not what you signed up for!
Lastly, we can’t pretend like style isn’t an important factor in choosing the right ski gear. If we don’t love the items that we buy for outdoor activities, we’re not going to look forward to using them. The great news is that many of your favourite bands make very stylish ski/snowboard pants. These include the likes of The North Face, Mountain Hardwear, and Columbia.

Frequently Asked Questions


Is there a difference between ski pants and snow pants?

In general, snow pants fit a bit more snug than snow pants. However, in some cases, you might find their use to be interchangeable.

Is it better to have too tight or too loose sky pants?

Neither! Ski pants shouldn’t be too tight or too loose but instead somewhere in the middle.

How do I know what size ski pants to buy?

Ski pants are often used with layers underneath, so it’s not a bad idea to go up from your regular size.
