BURLY BEAST
By MPS
Ranked #1389 - Men's Ski Pants
May 1, 2009
LIGHT, BUT BEASTLY. Bottom Line: Add this to your mountain arsenal.
Goretex Pro is incredible - Shucks water like oil. Even literally sitting on water, wet snow, etc. I never once got wet. The detachable internal gaiters are a genius innovation, not seen by many (if any???) other brands. The mid-level bib is a perfect compromise between pants and full bibs. The lighter fabric on the back does not compress completely against your back, however this is a purely aesthetic gripe as I noticed absolutely no excess fabric while wearing a pack. Full-length zips allow venting to your liking. As far as color, the gray is darker than the picture shows and looks fine.
