SCOTTY JAMES GOES THE K-WAY®
words by VERONICA TLAPANCO SZABÓ
At the top of a halfpipe? Barrelling through the air, 20 feet above hard-packed ice? That’s where you’ll find Scotty James with an ease that only comes from years of Olympic medals (silver in Beijing 2022, bronze in Pyeongchang 2018 to be precise), four-time world champion, and seven-time X Games gold medalist. Now, the snowboarding powerhouse is taking his expertise off the pipe and into your winter wardrobe with a fully dedicated collaboration with the K-Way® and Scotty James capsule.

For Winter 25/26, this sleek all-black collection, jacket, pants, vest, and neck warmer has been crafted with Scotty’s hands-on input. Every zipper, seam, and pocket reflects his technical know-how and insider experience gathered on the slopes. The result? Waterproof up to 20,000 mm, ultra-breathable, heat-taped seams, and DWR-treated fabric ready for falls, abrasion, and everything else the mountain might throw at you. And yes, there’s also a pocket for everything, ski passes, gloves, snacks, your phone because seasoned snowboarders will know the struggle of shuffling your board toward the lift while digging around for one of these items in your bag.
From a visor-equipped hood for maximum visibility in the pipe to adjustable pants with belt loops and glove-holder rings, this capsule is fully engineered with performance and comfort in mind. Want to see it in action? Watch out for Scotty at the FIS World Cup in China from December 8-14th and the Aspen X Games this January, where K-Way® will be outfitting him with a special supply created just for the occasion, to fly high, stay dry, all in Scotty style!
