Ranked #547 - Women's Ski Pants
December 23, 2008
I bought these pants for skiing, xcountry skiiing and general out and about business in and around the rocky mountain area.
I like them for the waterproof and breathability.
but, structurally Im not too happy. There are no pockets which I find annoying, there is only velcro to adjust the tightness around the waist, which i find inconvenient depending on how many layers I wear underneath. Also, the pants have mesh removeable gaitors. I like the fact that the gaitors are removable, however I am undecided as of yet what I think of the mesh.
I have a 31" inseam and they are almost too short.
overall the pants are good, but I wish I had researched the little details like the waist and pockets.
