Tell me about it, burton sizes are so confusing! last year I almost bought a pair of snowboarding pants in a L and had to return them cause they were so tight in the waist it was uncomfortable (I can't remember if it was slim fit, original fit, or sig fit?) so then I bought another pair in size L in team fit and they are WAY huge on me, I spent all last season hiking them up as I was riding, even after I adjusted the waist straps as tight as they go, so annoying! so now I need new pants this year! but I have no clue what size to get depending on what style fit I'm buying? I want to buy online now because the prices are so good, but I have no clue what size to get?! I need help...I wear a size 8 or 10 in most pants and weigh about 155-160 pounds and i'm about 5"5...why should buying snowboarding pants be this difficult?!

Ok. I wear an 8-10 in most pants, I'm 6'0 and 165 lbs. Burton Sig Fit in large fit me, team fit seems too big but I could go with L or M. So I'm thinking that Sig is normal, Slim you need to go a little bigger, Team maybe a little bit smaller, but I'm not into the skinny knees look, I gotta bend those babies! I just ordered the defiance from another site (only because they had it in Large in the Gore Skull print!) so we'll see if my made up rule applies to all Burton pants. Hope this helps you. Remember, returning stuff is usually not too much a hassle, either!
