Marmot Cargo Pant - Men's - 2007 BCS

Hard to really review since I sent 'em back, but if it helps anyone they are VERY baggy. Definitely a "park/pipe" fit if that's what you're into. Even baggier than a set of Burton's that I have, which really surprised me.

It doesn't seem as if marmot put much thought into these pants. The articulated knees are nice, as well as the design and function of the cargo pockets. I've found the knee pads to be nice whether tele or snowboarding. My gripes: h20 doesn't bead very well when wet. The surface material absorbed much of it, however I never felt it on the inside of the pant. The leg vents are small and should definitely be larger. The main hand pockets at waist are just like jean pockets with a small piece of velcro keeping it closed, still allowing snow to enter the pocket when you turf it. All and all, not too impressed. I purchased a pair of rip curl pants a few years ago and liked them much better than these. On a side note, they fit snug, which I like for the back country, but not for the lifts.

I agree with the review(160 days) below. The price was right on these until about 50 days on the mountain. These pants have great storage and the material is durable but they absorb moisture now. Skiied a couple times last week when it was dumping and came home soaked both times. A good pant for a bluebird day but I'd keep looking if your about to drop a $150.

Two seasons with this cargo pant and I wouldn't purchase another pair. Biggest gripe is that after about sixty days on the slopes they go from waterproof to an adhesive sponge. I've tried all waterproofing products and nothing will restore them to their new state. Good price and works great for the 30 days a season person, but if your spending half the year on the slopes or in the backcountry this is not the pant for you.

I have owned Marmots Corbet, and Free Flight and these are the best for the price. I bought these in size large because the Marmot XL seems to be too big for me. For ref I'm 6Ft 220lbs. I used these pants all winter for Alpine Skiing, XC Skiing and walking my dog. They are very low key Snow pants and when it was cold and snowy outside I'd wear them to the store or around town. Bottom Line...If a friend wanted me to recommemd a snow pant. I'd tell them to save themselves $50-$100 and buy these.

They look good. Cut is nice trough the knee and thigh. The waterproofing does wear out after about about a year to year and a half. Well thought out pockets and waist adjustments. I paid $99 and feel like it is a pretty good value, but I wear other pants when the weather gets nasty. Spend more if you want more.

Spent 4 days @ Snowbird in everything from 8" deep powder to groomed runs and dripping chairlifts (got above 32 on a couple occasions near the bottom of the mountain). The pants had no sign of wear, tear, wetness, etc. Good thing I bought black - I'll be wearing these for years to come!

P.S. I wore only a thin pair of stretchy tights underneath and felt very comfortable even when it dipped down to about 20 degrees with a 25 mph wind.

Liv e in the UK and bought these cargo pants off the internet so was a little bit apprehensive about what I was going to receive. First impressions were good, perfect colour match with my Helly Hansen ski jacket. After trying them on, was surprised with the size of the pants. One of the reviews said that if you wore anything over a 32 inch waist then you should go for a large. I ordered a medium (I usually wear 32 inch jeans) and found them to be on the large side - at least equivalent to 34 inch jeans if not more. After a week's skiing holiday, was very pleased with the ski pants - warm (considering it's really a shell pant), windproof and good water repellency. I removed the kneepads as I'm a skier and as far as I can tell they are designed for boarders who have to kneel on the snow regularly.

Sweet pants. They run a little big. I ordered an XL, but exchanged them for a L. I'm 6'2", 230 and usually wear an XL in everything, but the L fits perfectly. I thought the knee pads were useless because they hit about mid-shin, so I just took them out.

Though it's not the absolute perfect pant, for the money it can't be beat. Great for skier or snowboarder, the Cargo pant has many features not found on more expensive pants. Tons of pockets. The mesh lining turns into a soft thin fleece lining around the seat to give just that little extra warmth while sitting in the snow or riding the lifts. The removable knee pads are a nice bonus too. If you are looking for a pant that's a little more burly looking than the rest, look no further. As for waterproofness, they kept me dry while skiing in the rain at Panorama this spring, so no problems there.

The Marmot Cargo pants have met and exceeded my needs. These pants are 100% waterproof and have ample pockets for all of your snowboard tool needs. The knee pads are a must for any snowboarder, and the extra fleece lining in the seat never leave you cold and wet. Marmot has done it again!

I just purchased my second pair of this pant. I bought this pant 2 years ago, and am just peplacing it now after over 200 days of skiing and I still stay dry.
One of the features I love about this pant is the knee pad pockets. I telemark and wear a knee brace. This pant is perfect!! The knee pad is in the pant and does not interfere with my knee brace. Very comfortable pants and looks great as well. I highly recommend these pants

I'm a big Marmot fan and these pants are solid. Functionally they work just fine - what you would expect from ski/snowboard pants. Two gripes. One, Marmot sizing is too small. I wish they made sizes more like The North Face. I normally wear a Medium for almost all men' stuff, but needed a large here. They are true to their sizing. If you wear anything over a 32" waist, you need the large or higher. Second, the knee pads are too low. They are off about 6". I think it's a great idea to have them, but I had the same problem with both Med & Large sizes and I am 5-8. Otherwise solid offering from Marmot
