The Top 10 Snowboarding Style Trends for 2025/2026
This winter’s snow style has a lot to love: bold colors, relaxed fits, and retro-inspired graphics
Snowboarding style in 2025/2026 is more than just what riders wear on the mountain — it’s influencing graphics, colors, and silhouettes throughout street culture. And because snow, skate, surf and travel all overlap, these trends naturally inspire the pieces we live in every day: tees, hoodies and comfortable layers.

For 2025/2026, this trend is clearly visible. Here’s a look at what’s happening on the snowboard slopes this season, and how some of those ideas flow to and from the world of streetwear — including pieces from brands like ours here a 1923 Main Street®.
10 Trends that are shaping where slope style meets everyday streetwear
1. Retro Aesthetics Make a Comeback
This year’s snowboarding style brings back a lot of ’90s and Y2K influence: bold color blocking, geometric shapes, and that slightly nostalgic energy you see in vintage snowboard graphics.
Riders are leaning into loud palettes and geometric graphics — the kind you’d see on old-school snowboard decks.
2. Color Gets Bolder — with Metallic Elements
Bright, saturated colors are back on the slopes (along with the dreaded neon), but we’re also seeing metallic and reflective touches popping up.
3. Relaxed Silhouettes Lead the Way
Snow gear is leaning into relaxed, mobility-focused fits — roomy in the right places but clean overall. Watch for articulated joints, freeride-friendly shapes, and a shift away from overly baggy, sloppy designs, to a more stylish baggy look.
On the streetwear side, boxy tees and slightly oversized hoodies feel modern and pair well with the comfortable, easy-going style associated with snow culture. So if you’re grabbing a hoodie or tee in our shop, you may want to size up for that larger look.
4. Layering Is a Season Essential
Riders are mastering layering more than ever — mixing textures, weights, and silhouettes. Modular layering — pairing base, mid, and outer layers in flexible combinations — is shaping snow style, with riders prioritizing warmth, breathability, and versatility.
Layering sweats over tees or pairing a hoodie under a lightweight jacket is a winter street staple. Tees with high-contrast graphics under open hoodies mimic that slope-ready layered look. For 1923 Main Street apparel, we have designs in coordinated mini-collections: shirts, hoodies, and crews that mix and match visually.
5. Slope-to-Street Versatility
More riders want pieces they can wear before, during, and after a day in the mountains. This is influencing colours, prints, and silhouettes across the industry.
This is also where streetwear really shines. Hoodies and sweatshirts that work from morning coffee runs to après meet-ups naturally reflect the snowboarding lifestyle, even without technical features.
6. Baggy Is Back — But with Intention
Baggy snow pants have returned, but this time the fit feels more intentional. The resurgence of baggy snow pants is influencing broader fashion. It’s part practicality, part nostalgia.
On the streetwear side, pairing wide-leg bottoms with slightly oversized tops creates a balanced silhouette that fits right into the modern streetwear landscape. Comfortable, relaxed, but still put together.
7. Sustainability Matters More Every Year
Snowboarders have always been connected to nature, and brands are responding with eco-conscious materials and processes. With our culture embracing sustainability more than ever, more recycled materials and eco-conscious designs are becoming staples.
At 1923 Main Street we have always been about ethical production in everything that we do.
8. Clean, Tech-Inspired Minimalism
Technical snow gear is becoming sleeker and more minimal — matte finishes, simplified details, and monochrome tones. Performance wear is getting smarter and more streamlined. Watch for clean lines and subtle tech-inspired shapes to dominate.
For streetwear, this means minimal graphics, tone-on-tone prints, or simplified mountain motifs on hoodies and tees bring a modern, understated look that still nods to the slopes.
9. Outdoor Aesthetics Continue to Grow
Earth tones, outdoor motifs, and functional influences continue from the gorpcore trend. Outdoor utility is influencing both mountain and city fashion. Practical gear, textures, and colour schemes spill into everyday wear.
For 1923 Main Street streetwear, we have adventure-inspired graphics and natural palettes that work seamlessly on hoodies and tees, as our brand has always been rooted in travel culture. For us (and likely for you), this is not a trend.
10. Personalization and Limited Drops
Customization is big this year — riders want gear that expresses individuality. Riders love gear that feels unique — small runs, customizable options, and personal expression. Watch for manufacturers offering more limited-run items to cater to this trend.
