These are the ski socks I picked up this year as a small bonus gift to myself when I got myself new boots. My old pair of smartwool ski socks has lasted me 10 years, hundreds of days on the mountain and are still going strong!
Smartwool Ski Targeted Cushion Winter Haze Print Over The Calf Socks - Men's | REI Co-op
I'm still rocking a pair of the REI co-op goretex gloves, as i have been for some years now. I think that they are going to be the best value for warmth and utility out there, since gloves are getting so expensive these days.
REI Co-op Gauntlet GTX Gloves - Men's | REI Co-op
Whats warmer than gloves? Mittens. For those really bitter cold days, a pair of mittens will take you much farther than gloves and these are a great deal, and even on sale right now, offering exceptional warmth for their weight.
Gordini AquaBloc Down Gauntlet Mittens - Men's | REI Co-op
Personally I think these are going to be the best deal for quality and value that you're going to find in a new snow pant. These are a nice all-rounder.
REI Co-op Powderbound Insulated Snow Pants - Men's | REI Co-op
These are the pants that I wear most days skiing. I went up a size for mine and they are just the right amount of baggy without too much park rat vibe. Pricey yes but mine have beat up like crazy and still hold up.
Mens Lift Pants- Storm
Once again Rei manages to squeeze out the competion in terms of value with their powderhound jacket. It'll keep the snow and wind out, and the heat in, while looking pretty stylish too. North face products have been mostly fashion centered a few years now and quality has been...
REI Co-op Powderbound Insulated Jacket - Men's | REI Co-op
Merino WoOOoooOOl. Sorry to say but its pretty much impossible to beat merino wool for a base layer. Nothing stands up to cold and sweat quite like it, and if you take care of it, its a buy it once for life scenario.
REI Co-op Heavyweight Merino Base Layer Bottoms - Men's | REI Co-op
Just like the pants- the merino wool base layer shirt is the best warmth to weight ratio that you will find. Add in the smell and sweat fighting properties and we have a winner.

I have been wearing a buff of some sort for probably at least 15 years in all conditions and places. I wear the exact same buff in the summer to keep the sunburn and dust away as i do in the winter all the way down to 10 degrees farenheight. I don't ...
Buff Original Multifunctional Headwear | REI Co-op
Think that you need to spend 100's on a pair of oakleys to get magnetic, interchangeable lenses? Think again. These outdoor master goggles look just as good as the big boys and the magnetic lenses are insanely easy to swap out. The clarity of vision ...
PRO Snow Goggles + Lens Bundle
In a world full of giro ledges, rock a smith! Or not, I linked the Giro one too :). But nothing is a more important piece of gear than the helmet, don't think that you don't need one because you're a beginner- you need it more than anyone! And if you...
Smith Method Pro Mips Snow Helmet | REI Co-op
This helmet has been all over Tiktok lately as one of the fashion trends in ski culture (at least with males age 15-20 in particular). May as well throw it in here! No helmet, No steeze.
