An Incredible Array of Heinous Snowboard & Ski Themed Christmas Sweaters

 
It's almost Christmas, the festival where we all celebrate terrible clothing design. Here's what happens when you combine garish woolwear with snowboarding and skiing...



Section 1 - Embarrassed people modelling Christmas sweaters

In the footsteps of the classic blog Sad Etsy Boyfriends here's our own sad Etsy boyfriend


Allright, I'll model the stupid sweater, but do I have really have to wear the jeggings?


Tinsel? What the fuck is the tinsel for? I'll only do it if I get to wear the cowboy hat.


I used to have aspirations


Despite the contrary evident of the apologetic photo, this guy has managed to deceive himself into thinking loves his jumper, in fact he wrote a whole article about it on the Telegraph.


Whereas this guy from the Late Late Toy Show has nothing to hide, he fucking loves Christmas!
and men


Section 2 - Particularly impressive miserable second-hand Christmas jumpers

A Christmas dress, extending fashion disappointment below your crotch


As camp as Christmas


Christmas sweaters used as a paedophile warning device



Section 3 - Snowboard specific Christmas jerseys

Yup, it wasn't just skiers afflicted by this

Santa snowboarding down vagina mountain


We even have our own shitty waistcoat


You can buy this one for €40 from Funky Christmas Jumpers, if you fancy ruing someone's Christmas



Section 4 - Other Christmas jumpers you can buy right now

Priced at £20 to shift at John Barrie 


This fetching Ellesse number can be yours for £40 from ASOS 




There's one available in the US for $69 from Urban Outfitters 

"This sweater is GNOMEtastic" - I'll be the judge of that mate


And you can buy this for a frankly terrifying £79 from the usually understated department store John Lewis 


Section 5 - Vintage Christmas jumpers
Proving that our elders don't know better.

You wouldn't want to run into this man of action on a lonely mountainside





Must be the latest from Shaun White's Target range








This lad in a hat is awesome. He's the gift that just keeps giving...



I aspire to be that man


Section 6 - High Fashion Christmas sweaters

You can always rely on the fashion industry to come up with some gems. This time out it's Dolce & Gabbana who pick up the reins


There's a lot to hate here, but what the guy on the right is doing to snowboarding really needs to be stopped






Section 7 - Olympic Christmas Sweaters

Not to be outdone Ralph Lauren got involved and he's done it all over the US team's Olympic uniform

Despite being an ice skater, I used to have some dignity

It's really from the say-what-you-see approach to design

Well, at least the snowboard gear should be better, it's getting designed by Burton.

Wait, what's that you say?

It's out already?

What does it look like?

Shit
