Men's ski pants come in a variety of styles - you can buy heavily insulated ski pants, or thin shell pants. Both of these styles are available in bib-style, straight pants, or even cargo pants for a more modern look. However, your ski pants need to keep you warm and comfortable, and they must allow optimal flexibility. Below is a selection of the top men's ski pants that will do just that.

Patagonia's Men's Primo Pants are a durable, lightweight shell pant made to ski in all day, all season long. This tough 3-layer recycled nylon shell is bonded with waterproof/breathable GORE-TEX® Performance Shell on the outside with the DWR (durable water repellent) finish that prevents saturation and repels even the wettest snow. Other features include a gusseted crotch, articulated knees, external thigh vents, tough scuff guards and internal gaiters.
Spyder Tarantula Men's Ski Pants
The Spyder Tarantula ski pant is one of the most popular ski pants in the traditional black ski pant style. The suspenders are Spyder's "trademark" and the ski pant comes in both insulated and shell style - insulated is best for cold days, while shell pants will protect you against wind and moisture but won't keep your legs warm. Available in short, regular, and long lengths, the Spyder ski pant will offer optimal performance.
