Pint-Size Gear That Performs
While hand-me-downs and thrift shops are good options for the ultimate snow outfit, new gear is always fun.
When it comes to on mountain attire, locals of every age gravitate toward gear that is both functional and fashionable. In addition to what's mentioned here, young Aspenites are fond of Obermeyer ski pants and POC helmets. The North Face is another good option for durable snow pants. Also, look for gloves that have space, or even a special pocket for, hand warmers–they make chilly days all the more enjoyable.
