Current black pants at the mo. Not sure what I'll end up with. Despite Far Queue's suggestion not sure I can get away with purple trousers.


You can't do black and orange....i did that and i looked a bit dull.


Better than black and brown which was my previous "look" :shock:

To be honest, I've not spent money for the sake of it or for fashion reasons. My old jacket was pretty bulky, not particularly breathable so I ended up over hot and sweaty a lot of the time and I got soaked through on our last holiday when we experienced a couple of days of falling wet snow at lower levels.

Therefore Gore-tex (or equivalent) was top of my list.

I am looking at the Norrona Lofoten Gore-tex pants in green. Can I get away with orange over green or will I look like a prat? Answers on a postcard please.
slippy slidey snow......me likey!

What I am trying to say is that people should just buy and wear what they want to, and not worry about what anyone else thinks.

I'm fine both with people who want to buy the latest fashions, and those who have ski gear 20 years old etc. etc.

In fact, when I'm ski-ing I never notice what anyone's wearing anyway - except that if someone in my group lesson has a very striking jacket, for example, it does help when I'm trying not to lose the group :lol:

I quite like the orange and purple combo.

A deeper shade of purple may be more appealing but def better than orange and black

This is like Trinny and Susannah, but with some grade A wit and sarcasm thrown in for good measure. Great stuff - keep it up!
