Ski and snow gear lists
Make skiing, snowboarding, snowshoeing, and winter running more comfortable with this checklist of recommended snow gear for different conditions—for downskill skiers, snowboarders, backcountry skiers, cross country skiers, winter running, and snowshoers of all skill sets and destinations.
We reviewed 27 men’s ski jackets to find the 7 best hardshells, backcountry, insulated, 3-in-1, sub-$350, and waterproof coats. Here are our top rated winners.
We tested 50 lightweight, midweight, and heavyweight men’s and women’s base layer tops over four years. We put these base layers to work, and came out with the best base layers for warmth, durability, comfort, and ability to wick away sweat and odor over time.
We tested the best plus size ski and snow pants for warmth, waterproofing, and style. Perfect for slopes, snowshoeing, or winter fun.
