Best 44 Ski & Snowboard Brands for Clothing and Gear — How to Buy for Less by Brian Martucci on November 2, 2020
Surprisingly, some cold weather destinations made our list of the top outdoor vacation destinations to visit on a
budget.
But not everyone is a fan of cold weather. Winter brings a host of unique risks and
challenges not present in warmer seasons. If you live in a cold climate, you no doubt have a winter preparation checklist that will help you find fun outdoor winter activities. After all, winter is an ideal
time to get outside and stretch your legs, as long as you have the right clothing and
gear.
And what better way to take full advantage of the cold season than to spend a
day on the slopes?
Alpine sports such as skiing and snowboarding aren’t cheap. Even
getting to the mountain can be expensive. Equipment rentals or purchases weigh on the wallet
too, and for safety and comfort, skiers and boarders should buy the right apparel and gear. The
high-end brands listed in this post are trusted for quality, durability, and fit. When properly
cared for, they’ll remain useful – and stylish – season after season.
Every dollar
you save on clothing purchases is a dollar you can put towards skiing and boarding more often.
Fortunately, it’s possible to find items from trusted brands at less than suggested retail
price.

#43. XTRATUF
Trading on its origins in Alaska’s perilous commercial fishing
industry, XTRATUF makes high-performance footwear for a variety of on- and off-shore
applications. You won’t be strapping your men’s 6-inch ankle deck boot or 15-inch
Legacy boot into ski or board bindings
anytime soon, but you’ll be happy you have either as you trudge through the slush on your way to
the apres-slope happy hour. Add fleece boot liners for extra warmth and moisture protection;
you’re going to need it.
Like Muck
Boots, XTRATUF offers free shipping and returns on all orders in the continental U.S.
Sale items are non-refundable, though it’s difficult to imagine being dissatisfied with one of
the toughest boot brands on the market.
