There are many options when it comes to choosing the right ski pants for you. There are many options, from budget softshells to high-end hardshell options. The key is finding a pair that's the right fit for your style and needs.

First, think about your personal preferences. Do bibs suit you better than pants? Bibs are more comfortable than pants and provide better ventilation, making them a better choice for skiing in cold weather.

You should also consider the shell material that you choose. Gore-Tex, although widely considered the gold standard in weatherproofing is, can be used with other shell materials. Good shells will protect you from the rain and snow as well as prevent moisture from seeping through your pants.

Third, consider pockets: While some pants have Velcro pocketing, zippered ones are better for keeping items secure and dry. For example, your avalanche beacon can be stored in a thigh-pocket.

Fourth, consider your budget. Although GORETEX pants might be more expensive than others, serious winter skiers will find them worth it. Conversely, budget-friendly models with no thigh vents (or a zippered gaiter) aren’t as well-suited for long chairlift rides.

Fifth, pick a baselayer that will work with your ski pant. Synthetic fabrics are light and comfortable so that you don't feel too hot/cold when skiing.


Sixth, choose a style that can be used in both the backcountry and resort. The best pants are versatile enough to handle both types of terrain. Look for options with waterproof or water-resistant fabrics, as well as design features like built-in boot gaiters that prevent snow from soaking into your pant.

Seventh, make sure you find the right fit. Your ski pants should hug your legs and not feel constrictive. Choose a flattering fit, as well as a wide range of sizes (including tall and petite).

Eighth, look for a pair you can last many seasons. For a sturdy design that can withstand years of abuse, check out brands like Helly Hansen.

Tenth, find a pair of ski pants that can handle rain and wind. You want to be comfortable so that you don't feel too hot/cold when it's cold out and warm in the inside.
