Durability is the name of the game for the Obermeyer Brisk Teen Boys Pant, a warm, waterproof insulated ski pant built to survive young rippers. A tough fabric keeps growing skiers dry through long resort days, and a regular cut leaves room to layer. It is the no-nonsense everyday pant for kids who are hard on their gear.

Why we like it:

The rugged ottoman-weave fabric is the unsung hero; it resists the scrapes and scuffs teen skiers dish out while keeping the weather firmly outside. Simple, durable, and warm is exactly what this category needs.

Features and Functions:

The Brisk uses Obermeyer's HydroBlock Sport waterproofing on a durable 100 percent polyester ottoman weave, rated 10000mm waterproof and 10000 breathable, with 60 gram insulation for warmth. The hard-wearing construction is made to survive a full season of teen resort skiing.

Fit and Sizing:

A regular fit leaves room to layer and grow into. True to size, with a waist adjuster to fine-tune the fit.

Bottom Line:

For teen skiers who beat up their gear, the Brisk is best at warm, waterproof, durable everyday protection. A dependable workhorse pant for lift-served days.
