It's that time of year for new threads and there's a nikita (girls boarding brand) jacket thats bangin! It only says Nikita pretty small on the arm, but I feel like I would be a total gaper for wearing Nikita since im a big time skier.... What are your thoughts?

Do any girls know some killer coats out this season?

so you're afraid of looking like a gaper because you're wearing a snowboarding jacket?
cuz it's really no big deal, i bet at least a third of ns has either a snowboarding jacket or pants.

I do believe there are a few female skiers sponsered by Nikita, Kim lamarre, so why would you look like a gaper.

Gapers wear jackets that were on special at walmart. Not nikita. So don't worry.

I can't say i have ever seen a snowboarder wear Saga, LDC, Trew, Orage, Siver, Armada or any other ski company brands but I know tons of skiers that wear snowboard outerwear. Even I wear special blend, which is owned by forum, which is owned by burton.

Agreed. I was looking into a Nikita coat but I did get something different. Sick jackets though. But I ride with a ton of skiers who kill it a rock boarding outerwear. I say go for it if you like it. A jacket to look into is the Purple / Blue Oakley Air Raid. Tight jacket in my opinion and I haven't seen anybody sporting that style yet. That is if you want something different. But I say go with what you want girly! Don't worry about other people.

Actually, lots of people give a shit. Thats why there are so many different outerwear companies. Theres no way your ever gonnu get rich in the industry if you dont think people are loyal to certain brands.
Stop being loud and negative

Word Dawg I appreciate the heads up and totally forgot I was trying to "Get Rich" in the ski attire industry- wow, I know i was beating a dead horse but how self-conscious can you people get just let your skiing do the talking. Half the people on this site that simply talk about having the "coolest gear" and can't even slide a rail no one gives a shit what gear you have

Just one second buddy. I don't care that your not trying to get rich in the ski industry, plus Im glad your not. You made yourself a lightening rod bcoz you sought attention with your caps lock and fucks and shits. Lots of people give a shit. Your just being ignorant. Thats why there are outerwear companies, bcoz people will keep buying outerwear. And Im not going to type that again. You should just be the bigger man and try to coerse me into repeating myself and then All never post in this thread again. Be the bigger man.

Yeah my roommate is sponsored by Nikita and she's a skier...I don't think they support the skiing side of the industry a whole ton, but all the gear looks nice.
