Looking for a pair of ski pants that aren't so bulk or baggy, I suppose the ski pant equivalent of the skinny jean. Budget of £100.
Do they exist?

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Possibly look at discounted Italian and French brands like Poivre Blanc or Hyra, from the likes of TK Maxx and Sport Pursuit.

My partner just bought a pair from Poivre Blanc, they are quite fitted but not as tight as her last pair! Probably a good thing! They can be bought online through their website.

If you spend the first half of the season eating tartiflette and drinking Mutzig, then your ski-pants won't be baggy anymore.
Problem solved

We all used to wear tight stretchy ski pants that had flare bottoms.

I've still got a pair, black, unused, male, large size. Go faster racing pants. Any offers or should I take them to Antique Roadshow?

I took advantage of someone on eBay who had purchased a nice pair of Rossignol pants but who couldn't fit into them. New with tags and at least half the store price.

Thanks for all the recommendations!
I had a look online but couldn't see anything that was 1) affordable, 2) in stock 3) in my size.
So went out shopping today and picked up a paid of Salomon Strike pants from Cotswolds. While probably not a fitted as I would have liked, they are quite snug and they'll look good with my new Fischer jacket!
Thanks all!

Too late for the OP, but Burton's TWC are good and fit athletic people well. As stated Volcom and others also have product which should work. Sizing is modern though - so if you're "medium" then you need "small" etc.

Also too late for OP, but I have Decathlon softshell black ladies' ski-specific trous and they're a very nice tight but comfy stretch fit. Belt loops also. Not very expensive, given the retailer, but a good quality. I've worn same pair for many years and trips and also fair bit of snowdome use, and are still in excellent appearance and never got me damp no matter what the weather.
Like all ski-specific stuff they are "bootcut" rather than utterly skinny. But they do come in 3 length options, and I have a sewing machine...
