Ladies Ski Pants

Is it okay to buy snowboarding gear for skiing?

I understand that snowboarding gear is a bit bagger. Would this be functional or practical for skiing? would i look out of place wearing for example the more articulated knees in the snowboarding pants. I do like the look of the snowboarding gear as opposed to the skiing gear from a purely aesthetics stand thanks for the advice in advance. I've only been skiing a few times and each time i used my mates old season gear. This is what i was looking at: http://www.surfanic.co.uk/PRD_ProductDetail.aspx?cid=2&prodid=2827&Product=DEVILOCK-MENS-PANT-NEW-TWEED-OLIVE http://www.surfanic.co.uk/PRD_ProductDetail.aspx?cid=2&prodid=2818&Product=DREADS-MENS-JKT-NEW-TWEED--OLIVE

1. man have you seen the pro skiers in the freestyle comps, go for it so long as you are comfortable and look good that's all that matters, i am a boarder but know a skier that wears burton gear all the time. The gear looks good to me so just do it
2. whatevers comfortable for you. if you like the baggy look then yeah totally go for it. just get the right boots :) ha
3. No. Snowboard clothes get very jealous of other sports. They have been known to revolt when worn for snowmobiling and cross country skiing. Since alpine skiing is snowboarding's biggest rival I have to strongly recommend against wearing snowboard gear when skiing. I wouldn't want to see your clothing get upset and cause you to crash.
