Burton AK 2L Cyclic Gore-Tex Pant - Men's
Poor Quality Material

If all you are looking for is to stay dry, these pants are great. I purchased these pants near the end of last season. Rode in them about 6 - 7 days. Spent 4 days in them this season. This weekend the pants ended up frozen and thouroughly soaked. The goretex kept me dry on the inside but the outer shell was completely waterlogged. The outer material ended up with slight tearing in multiple places near the 2 front pockets. I didn't even notice the pants getting snagged on anything. Bottom line, they will keep you dry, but I do not think the outer material is sturdy enough to hold up on the long term.
