Best Ski Pants for Youth

A pair of ski pants should fit comfortably and not restrict your ability to ski. It will depend on your height, weight, skiing style, and the base layers that you use under your ski pants.

While fit is personal preference, you should choose ski pants that fit comfortably. If they're too snug, you'll lose heat easily and be uncomfortable. If they're too loose you might find that the snow can get in.

Most comfortable ski pants have an "adjustable" fit, meaning the waist and legs can adjust to different sizes by using Velcro straps and belt loops. This will help to ensure the pants stay comfortable as you grow and change.

Best Brands of Ski Pants for Adults

Three-layer models are the norm for premium ski pants. They feature a waterproof membrane as well as an inner liner to wick away moisture. They're more expensive than 2-layer models, but they offer a better fit and improved next-to-skin comfort.

They're made with big brands such as Gore-Tex, eVent and other durable materials. This makes them a great choice if you are serious about skiing and want to have a durable pair. The top-rated Arc'teryx Sabre 3-layer pants is a great choice. It has a high-quality 80D shell that provides both insulation and waterproofing.

Ski pants with insulation

If you're looking for a pair of ski pants with insulation, look for ones that have a 60-gram (or more) synthetic filling. This will give you enough insulation to provide a light base layer that keeps you warm while you ride the lifts and in the backcountry.

Also, a pant should have a generous cut with an adjustable waist. This is especially helpful for those with muscular legs who need extra space.

Comfortable ski pants will have thigh vents that allow air to flow through the legs. This is particularly important for children who may sweat a lot. They also keep the fabric from puffing up along the sides of their legs, which can make it uncomfortable on hot days.

Rating of Breathability

The average ski pants will have a breathable rating of 10,000. This is enough for most people. This number is determined using a scale called the moisture vapor transmit rate (or MVTR). It measures how much water or sweat can escape from a square meter of fabric over a 24-hour period.

Many ski pants have zippered ventilation panels. These are usually located on the outside or inside of the thighs. While this is often more effective at shedding warmth, it can also increase bulk and impact comfort. So, we recommend first trying the outer vents along your thighs.
