...in what is one of my favorite bookstores, they had stickers suitable for bumpers and other uses. One of them read : "Trump skis in jeans." My daughter explained it was the worst insult you could level at someone. At least in the Rockies.How skiing in jeans went from a coolly insouciant look to an embarrassing joke https://t.co/u8Y1gPXvqS— The Wall Street Journal (@WSJ) February 6, 2020
I laughed out loud when I saw this. On those seemingly more and more rare occasions when I ski (it has gotten very expensive, totally out of the question this year with the job hunt), I ski in jeans. I telemark, free-heel, ski (not very well by the way), which is practically a cult activity at this point. Wearing jeans is the least weird part of the whole spectacle. Besides, baggy ski pants hide the elegant knee bends and motion of the classic telemark turn.
