The Jeans

The Jeans. Click to enter. Click to win.Everybody has their favorite pair of jeans. A few die-hards in Aspen (Benny the Blade, for one) still ski or ride in their jeans. 

Remember the Olympic Snowboard team's uniforms in 2010-- they wore THE JEANS.  They're the coolest snow sports pants ever made.  Burton and Gore-Tex combined forces to create the distinctive denim-like uniforms that helped the U.S. dominate the snowboard events at last year's Vancouver Olympics.

Now you can win a pair of THE JEANS.   Gore-Tex is throwing a contest...all you have to do is enter your best SNOW SPORTS vid...one plank or two.  Enter before  3/18/11.  So fire up your Contour or Go Pro, figure out your I Phone....recover your password on You Tube....just get something on tape.   Lay it down---show us your best run , trick, story, etc.  Be creative and you can come away with your very own pair of THE JEANS.   Oh ... and the super-duper GRAND PRIZE is a big-daddy, full paid trip to Jackson Hole....no big deal

The Jeans are water proof and breathable using Gore-Tex's Performance Shell technology.  They have a full satin lining, inner-thigh vents and a faux jean print (with fake worn spots).  These snow pants are the bomb and they're bomb proof.  AspenSpin does not ride a snowboard...but we want a pair of The Jeans.
