Favorite colors!

I thought it would be cool if we had a place to post there outerwear "kits" and color combinations they like. Inspiration for color combinations is always useful.

Pictures appreciated!!

My kit as of last season. The checkered pants were much loved but they have been replaced with solid grey, and im planning to pick up a new shell soon whenever I have the money.

Well i love my ski outfit this season. See avatar. I have to wear black pants when I am teaching so when I am not I like to have fun with colors.

I am a function over form kinda guy so I prefer very bright colours that work as a built in, passive, newschooler-snowboarder defense system.

Plaid.

That’s my current outfit on the left. I miss wearing my orange pants, but I think that they are a bit too much with the current jacket. When I wore the orange pants with my previous blue jacket, I was accused too often of being a Broncos fan. Too bad Phil won’t let me wear my black gortex pants anymore.

I see way too many people spend big dough on ski clothing only to cheap out on boots and skis.

Jilly gets it.

Seems like more and more skiers are dressing in drab, dull colors now. It's like a gardeners convention. Brown is the new volcano red.

That's because bright orange makes the Jerry's think you can do backflips. And that's a big expectation to live up to

This year’s colors are terrible! I was buying a jacket and pants for my son’s GF but I had to go to last year’s fashions. It’s fine. I was just disappointed in this year’s colors. I will always like bright reds and blues.

I am actually a fan of the drab colors, but I guess thats just me.

Nope. I know a lot of guys that prefer the drabs. My son has dressed in grays and blacks, for skiing, his entire life. My hubby, however, is a full on skittle! My son expressed that he would like to have a red jacket. We bought it for Christmas. I know a lot of dudes who sport the Darth Vader look. In time, we will bring them into the light.

I bought a bright blue shell and neon yellow/ green pants for this season. And I'll probably still sometimes wear this :

Plaid.

Hmmm...we could clash. I'll be skiing in my kilt this year.

Sounds like good ventilation.

Have done plaid in the past but prefer green nowadays. I like to make is easy for family to pick me out on the hill.
