Can I Ski in Jeans?

Jeans really aren't the best thing to ski in... Here's why.

1. They'll freeze. You'll freeze.

Denim isn't waterproof. And it isn't windproof. If you sit on a damp chairlift, take a spill, or get caught in a storm, jeans won't offer the warmth and protection that waterproof ski pants will.

2. Fashion first.

A lot has changed in ski technology, and that doesn't stop with boards. Fabrics, goggles, helmets, and boots have changed, too. Nowadays, long, straight skis are out of style. And as much as we love the nineties, jeans are out, too.

3. You risk looking like a Jerry.

Ski fashion aside, no one looks good with dry calves and a damp seat. (A Jerry is kind of like a novice or non-skier.) Jeans are for Jerrys; snow pants are for skiers.
