I'm an odd combination of a 32" waist and a 33" inseam and I generally like my pants to be longer. Should I go with a large?

I have a 32" waist and a 32.5" inseam. I liked the fit of the Tour in Medium. The back of the pant still covered part of the shoe. A large I found just fit way too "dumpy"

I purchased the Stotic Tour. I know these are now disco'ed but this style & its predecessor have very similar features. So the review_ I'm 5'10"210 34 waist muscular frame. I have read the post which were very helpful. People said the pants were for tall thin people & they were right. So when I made my purchase I brought the XL it was the correct choice for me. Note; because the pants are a slim profile cut getting a size larger makes them look like a nice loose fit. Espically for us people that have a but LOL!!! The length was fine because they are tapered at the bottom. so they stretch over the ski boots and fit nice over regular boots. The big plus was they stretch like crazy. I seriously mean extremely flexible not once did I feel like I was coming out of them because they were to loose or confined because they were to tight. Its an inherent problem for 34" we fall into the L & XL category. I laughed when we got to the slopes my friend asked if I was changing. The fact that they were insulated is a pro-bo. My snow bro was complaining cause he didn't have his insulated NorthFace & was chilling up cause it was 25 & windy. The 1 zip thigh & backs were fine to secure my valuables the unzipped front pockets worked well for tissue & junk the expensive brands have nothing on these period.
Solid pants

Used them once for some summer touring and thought I would post up a review. Like most people said.. the fit is a bit strange haha, made for taller - skinnier people (the fact that they stretch means that they will fit most people). Ankles are very snug against ski boots - but possible to get over boots without unsnapping them. Material is great, very comfortable and seemed pretty durable. The pants seem well thought out. I see a couple people complaining about the open pockets.. but I see them as a plus (you can stash snacks or whatever you might need quick access to when you're hiking, and then stow it away in a zip pocket for the downhill). The color (slate, I think?) seemed a bit more purple in person than on the website.. but most people I asked said they looked gray, so maybe it's just me. The ONLY reason I'm giving them 4 stars is because of the fit - if they fit you perfectly, these are a 5 star pant. And you gotta love the price!

I'd check out the M. Should fit you pretty well.
How difficult would it be to fit these?...

How difficult would it be to fit these? My mom is a good seamstress and has fixed many pairs of pants and shorts already.
Jeff Blackston

It depends on where the pants need the work. If the length needs to be altered then you will have to deal with the crampon/ski patch on the inside of the lower legs, as well as the zipper and snap on the outside of the lower leg.
Good kit!

Paid $65.99 at steepandcheap.com, and for the price these are exceptional pants! I'd go 5-star but the irregular stitching work along a thigh seam and the lack of front pocket zippers precluded that even at this price point. Great materials and design. I have a 36" waist and a 32" inseam, bought the Large. No complaints. The fit seemed distinctly odd at first, but by the end of day 1 (a jaunt up to Mailbox Peak in the Issaquah Alps), they felt like they'd been custom tailored. These are very warm *and* very breathable. Water resistance not yet tested.
Seem great to me.

I just used these for two days of powder skiing with temps around 20 F. They worked great. I also use Patagonia simple guide pants. The Stoics protect from wind better, and are more water resistant. The pocket were not a problem at all for me. They also fit fine. I have mediums and I am 5'7" around 165 lbs. Waist is normal 32-33, inseam in jeans is 31".
Warm and durable

These are great when I am plowing snow in my bobcat. Super warm and durable construction, mostly wear them at work on sub freezing days. Way more comfortable then carharts or some coveralls. Fit over my work boots with out any issues, have not tried wearing my snowboard boots under them, I could see them being a little tight for that. I am 6'5", 215, got an XL and they fit great. Have not warn them boarding, and I could see open pockets being an issue with that. I love them, and I have two pair.
Great for winter biking

I got these for my dad - he says they stop the wind and water pretty well when he is biking to and from work. He tried wearing them when the temperature was down in the teens and said they still kept him warm, even without another layer.

I have a 33" waist with 26" legs and a squatter's butt. Pants are usually a rough purchase for me. Am I better off upsizing to an L and cinching up the waist-space or are the legs wide enough?

Member since
The sizing on these is strange and they would not work for me. I would try the Large because I think the Mediums are going to be too snug in the butt.
LOOKS LIKE A WINNER

SO FAR SO GOOD. WEAR THEM FOR MOUNTAIN BIKING AND LONG HIKES IN SUB FREEZING TEMPS.,NO L.J'S. THEY FIT CLOSE AROUND MY BOOTS,A GOOD THING,DON'T HAVE TO BE CONCERENED ABOUT HOOKING A CRAMPON WHEN NOT WEARING GAITORS. I WEAR A 32" INSEAM, XL'S LENGTH JUST RIGHT. HAVE'NT GOT RAINED ON YET, WE'LL SEE.

Great Pant

5'11, 160 pounds and bought the medium. Have used this pant for 5 days of touring in the tetons and 1 day of ice climbing. I have found these pants to be very comfortable and supply a great range of movement. Some others have complained about the lack of zippers on the hip pockets, NO BIG DEAL!, just don't put stuff there. Did keep a pair of thin gloves in the pockets and they never came out. Had no issues with snow going there either. AS far at the button clasp over the boot, no issues there. The pants held up well to wet conditions of ice climbing and powder skiing in the pass. Picture coming later.
Amazing pants

The fit is awesome, I'm 6'2" and 220lbs size 36 and the large are like a glove. They are defiantly for taller people. I have used them for XC skiing, touring, and winter camping/backpacking. They are very waterproof in snow(haven't used them in rain yet) and windproof. They breath very well. I could see if you were falling in deep powder snow could get in the pockets but thats the only negative. If your taller than 6' get them!

These pants are awesome. Got 'em off SAC and couldn't be happier. I got the Excaliber/Deep and in person they appear to be a little darker with a hint of purple to them ( I think it has to do with different lighting). But I like them anyway
The microfleece interior makes them so soft! The outside material has some nice stretch to them but are still tough. The pants also have a more athletic fit making them perfect for people who are always on the move.
I'm 6' 1" and 158lbs and I got the medium.
