Technology in North Face Ski Pants for Men

Outside of comfort and quality, the technology inside North Face men's ski pants is what sets them apart from similar pants. Here are a few key features.

The Chimney Venting system keeps you cool as you hike to gated terrain with vertical zippered vents on the outside of the thigh that have mesh backings to keep the snow from getting in. Ride all day long without having to dry off under the air-blowers at the ski lodge. Choose from The North Face men's ski pants with Hyvent, Dryvent, Apex Climate Block or Gore-Tex to keep wet snow and powder stashes from soaking through.

Venting on many North Face men's snow pants draws air in through the lower leg and releases hot air through the upper thigh vents, which is a big help on long, hard days when regulating heat matters.

Many North Face men's snow pants also use Heatseeker or PrimaLoft insulation that provides warmth without bulk. These materials are lightweight, which makes movement easy.

The men's North Face snow pants also come equipped with elasticized cuffs that prevent snow from entering the user's boots, allowing them to have warm and dry feet while going down the slopes.

Ski Pants vs. Snow Bibs

Ski pants and snow pants are the same thing: insulated or shell pants built for snow. The real choice is pants or bibs. Ski pants are easier to put on and take off and pair well with a jacket's powder skirt. Snow bibs like the Freedom Bib and Dragline Bib add a high front and suspenders that keep snow out on deep powder days and in the terrain park.

Choose a shell pant such as the Freedom Shell or Seymore if you run warm or want to layer underneath. Choose an insulated pants such as the Freedom Insulated or Chakal if you get cold on the lift.

No. The terms mean the same thing: waterproof shell or insulated pants built for snow sports. The bigger choice is between pants and bibs, and between shell and insulated styles.

Are North Face men's ski pants waterproof?

Yes. North Face men's ski pants use waterproof, breathable DryVent or GORE-TEX fabrics with taped seams, depending on the style, to keep wet snow out while letting sweat escape.

Should I buy ski pants or snow bibs?
