I book packed in the tetons with these and they worked great, not too warm not too heavy. They vent great and are loose enough to allow a full range of activities

I liked the overall feel of the pants. The waist was comfortable and the plastic band helped them stay up. The length felt a little long (but I'm short). Also, material sliced easily on ski edges. Not recommended for telemark skiing. For the next model, I would suggest a scuff/rip guard on the inside ankles (like most ski pants have).

Vents inside the legs do not stay zipped
The pants are very large for the size guidelines
If they fit better they would look very sharp!

I am 5 feet 8inches tall with long legs and have difficulty finding snow pants long enough. These were just long enough. Although, they probably wouldn't work for anyone taller. Very comfortable with light pants underneath. May not be warm enough in severely cold conditions but did well while I was skiing in the high teens.

 
Great pants!

Pros:
Breathable, High-Quality Material and Stitching, Lightweight, Plenty of pockets, Stylish
Best Uses:
Skiing
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Love these pants. Very comfy, totally unrestrictive, stylish. Only minor negative is that they seem slightly overlong, but then perhaps I'm slightly vertically challenged at 5'4".
Only wish I'd got them at sale price! Might have to buy a 2nd pair...

Kept me warm (with base layer underneath) while skiing in 15-20 degree weather. Waist is very comfortable - sits a bit lower than other ski pants.

 
Nice pants
By internet shopperVerified Purchaser from Tucson, AZ on 1/7/2007
Waist:
Feels true to size
Length:
Feels true to length
Pros:
High-Quality Material and Stitching, Lightweight, Plenty of pockets, Stylish
Best Uses:
Cold Weather, Snowboarding

I bought the "driftwood" color and was disappointed to find that the color was significantly lighter than pictured. It is actually a light sand color rather than the dark cocoa color shown.
The pants fit nice, have great features, feel very high quality and proved to be great in the snow. Just surprised the color was not as pictured since that is a major product feature.

 
Great... but not perfect!
By Stacy from CT on 1/6/2007
Waist:
Feels true to size
Length:
Feels true to length
Pros:
Breathable, Lightweight, Stylish
Cons:
Leakage at thigh zippers
Best Uses:
Skiing, Snow Shoeing

These pants are great in cold weather. The only problem is with rainy conditions- water leaks through the thigh vents to get your knees slightly wet. Other than that- they kept me very dry.
I recommend changing the vent zippers-- adding a storm flap or welding.

 
New School Pants - all sports
By KiraVerified Reviewer from Las Vegas, NV on 1/4/2007
Waist:
Feels true to size
Length:
Feels true to length
Pros:
Breathable, High-Quality Material and Stitching, Lightweight, Packable, Stylish
Best Uses:
Skiing

I really think these pants are great for skiing and snowboarding. The only problem I found was the zippers for the vents zip up/down so when your moving around a lot and closed they tend to find a way of opening up.
Next time you guys make these pants, switch the zipper around.

Feels too long, Feels true to length
Pros:
Breathable, Great fit, High-Quality Material and Stitching, Packable
Cons:
I don't like snow pants
Best Uses:
Camping, Cold Weather, Feild trip to the Mt's, Hiking

I really don't like how snow pants fit my body since I am very skinny and I like things to as my mom says, "sucks on to my body". These are the best fit I have ever found in snow pants.
