So I get to answer my own question, I eneded up waiting for mediums and got the pants today. I just had a waist measuremet done last week and have a 33 in waist. The pants are very slim fitting, with a L/S shirt tucked in and some wool long underwear they were snug and it didnt feel like i would be able to layer anymore underneath. Even though H/H lists the mediums from 32.3-35.4'' there doesnt seem to be anymore room if i did need to wear another layer underneath. So in my case im going with the large for a better fit. The pants themselves look well made, all seams taped and the side zips have stiffeners to help prevent the zipper from sucking in the fabric and chewing it up. They are a little stretchy but not much, all the zippers are metal so looks like from previous posts they swapped out the plastics. They are extremely comfy against bare skin the fabric is really cool stuff, feel alot better then my old Gtex MH backcountry pants. Havent had a chance to check out waterproofness and breathability. Ive noticed that all the "waterproof" pants ive owned always let water in at the knees where the fabric is put under the most tension while moving. The removable skirt is very stretchy and comfortable. Pockets are a bit small, but they work for me since i dont like carrying things in my pant pockets. Unfortunately the gaiters are not remavable which is something i like to see, but nothing is perfect. So all in all without being able to test them in snow/rain, ill give them a four stars.

For next time you might wanna include height, weight and maybe age. So, Im not sure if a large would be okay. But going 1 size big is usually not the worst thing, it gives more room for layers and loose cut is a popular style currently.
