my snowboard friends were saying how they hate when skiers wear stuff like burton and when snowboarders wear skier stuff. do most people think this way? it seems kinda gay, like my fashion loving sister wouldnt even care, and these GUYS do.

People should wear what they want. Sure it's nice to support a company that supports us, but when it comes down to it, I don't think people care at all.
Who's gonna notice the brand of your clothes, anyway? Only the people the are really into skiing or snowboarding. And these types of people realize that Skiing and Snowboarding are basically the same, and we both love the same mountains and snow.

I'd prefer to support a skiing company, but style/how much I like it trumps sport-specific shit any day.

If I feel that this company sells at a lower price and has a dope/good quality product I will buy from them.
I chose to buy the DC jacket because it had a better quality and a lower price than pretty much all of the other products that I could try on. I got the orage pants because they have the best quality, and they were 50% off. If I had the choice I'd probably pick a skiing company if it had equally good looks and quality to the snowboarding ones, and had the same price. But I don't really have the cash for that choice.

You should be able to wear anything.... but this is skiing and snowboarding. Everyone's so picky it's lame. But if ur hectic, you can pull off anything

you have no good contributions..
But wear what you want, I know a kid who kills it harder on boards than anyone I know and he wears a generic jacket he got from an Op Shop for $2.
