Here’s the Best ’90s Slope Style to Steal, Just in Time for Snowboarding Season
Back in the 80’s, before Shaun White could even put on his own snowsuit, not to mention become an ambassador to men’s Fashion Week, snowboarding was staking its claim as a counterculture even more out-there than skateboarding. Snow Beach: Snowboarding Style ’86-’96, a new book edited by Alex Dymond and published by powerHouse Books, takes an in-depth look back at those early days before with the aim of setting the historical record straight—and memorializing the fluorescent nylons, ultra-reflective goggles, cheetah-print hair, and other style trademarks that ruled the ’80s and ’90s. Take a look back, here.
