Design Fault?

Ranked #684 - Men's Softshell Pants
October 29, 2008
Beware the wide, flared cuffs on these pants. More suitable for a 70's disco than mountaineering. They will blow about in the wind and snag on crampons. The Mountain Hardwear site and the leaflet attached to the pants refers to a 'one-handed draw-cord and snap'on the cuff, which would be a very useful feature if it were actually present. Backcountry.com have been unable to tell me so far whether this is a fault with my pants or an error with the product description. Anyone else have a drawcord on their synchro bibs?
