Chloe Kim's Must Haves, From a $7 Lipstick to a $216 Face Cream

Chloe Kim is not your average 24 year old. The pro snowboarder has been conquering the slopes since age 4 and was propelled into global stardom at 17 after becoming the youngest woman to win an Olympic gold medal for the women's halfpipe. Then, four years later, she did it again. "I love making history," Kim tells PS in a recent interview to discuss her latest collab with Roxy.

It's that kind of attitude that led Kim to land a 1260 on the halfpipe earlier this year. The snowboarding trick involves completing three and a half (!) full rotations in the air while performing a grab — and Kim's the first woman to have nailed the move in competition. "For me, doing something that's never been done before — there's nothing quite like it. I think that feeling is better than any medal I've ever won," she says, adding that she's on a mission to show people "what crazy tricks women are capable of."

Fortunately, when it comes to breaking records, Kim says she's in good company, nodding to the host of women athletes who came before her (including Alex Morgan, who was a particular motivator for Kim in her teens). Now, she's glad to see the attention and appreciation placed on women athletes in recent years. "It's about damn time," she says. "Now women's sports is blowing up, as you were saying, but it's been a long time coming. There have been so many incredible women that have contributed to this change, used our voices; I think we all worked together for this goal."

For Kim, that goal doesn't mean just tackling the exclusionary nature of sport, but fashion, too. It's why she was so excited to work with Roxy on her most recent collection. "They were a brand for women, by women, and that meant a lot to me, especially when it comes to outerwear." From its inception, Kim was heavily involved in the design process — from sourcing the Japanese watercolor prints that would inspire the florals on the jacket to her push for deeper pants pockets. "[Women] have so much stuff," Kim says, adding that with most outerwear, "I can't even fit my iPhone." When it came time to design her own pants, she had one request: "I need deep pockets — and a lot of them."

This isn't her first foray into athletic fashion either. In 2021, she co-founded one of the most popular media and commerce companies Togethxr, alongside Alex Morgan, Simone Manuel, and Sue Bird. You're probably familiar with the brand's "Everyone Watches Women's Sports" tee that made the rounds this WNBA season. Togethxr has sold $3 million worth of shirts, hoodies and tote bags with the slogan as of summer 2024, per New York Times reporting.

When Kim isn't making history with her company or out on the slopes, you can find her pouring into herself with therapy — both talk and retail. Ahead, she shares her must-have products for fitness, travel, beauty, and more.
