Why Rent vs. Buy Your Snow Clothes
"Renting is the way to go if you’re just getting into skiing or snowboarding. You get to try out all new and different things, and get confidence on the mountain before fully committing. It’s also great if you’re a casual, once-a-year type of skier who maybe lives somewhere a little more on the warm side. In any case, renting your snow clothes can be great for your bank account and for mama earth."
