There are many types of men's snowboard pants and many companies that produce them. We have selected some of the best brands such as: Burton, Horsefeathers, Jones, L1, Norrona, Patagonia, Quiksilver, Rip Curl and Volcom. The various characteristics that we must observe in a snowboard or ski pant are, for example, the water columns that represent the degree of impermeability of the pant, i.e. the higher this number is, the greater the protection from water and snow it will give us, the degree of breathability which is instead how much the membrane is able to let out the water vapor that our body develops during moderate activity. There are many variants and materials/membranes that are used based on the needs common to the various brands such as Polartec, Primaloft and Gore-Tex which, being very technical, help to increase the breathability, warmth, and impermeability of the garment and finally we have proprietary membranes of some brands which are equally technical but which are used and produced exclusively by them. Today companies tend to use "dynamic" membranes that manage to modify their structure to thermoregulate and control the breathability of the garment being worn. Another factor to consider are the production standards of the fabrics since today it has become very important to try to safeguard the planet's resources and try to pollute it as little as possible during the production processes, without neglecting the attention that some brands dedicate to improve and keep the conditions of the people who work in the factory healthy and safe and are subject every day to certain factors which, if not controlled, could harm their health and safety.
