The North Face Mammatus Bib - Women's
Not perfect enough
By Trinka Gillis
Ranked #523 - Women's Ski Pants
June 22, 2009
I bought these pants but returned them.
I really liked the fabric that these ski pants were made of- soft to the touch, and quiet - you could get dressed in a dormitory without waking everyone else up.
The drop-seat was a nice feature, but I'm slightly heavy in the rear and thighs (5'7", 145 lbs) , and the hole didn't seem large enough to accommodate my rear without potentially soiling my clothes.
The elastic in the waist would have been more flattering if it was tighter or adjustable.
I consider $400 to be a big investment for ski gear, so any pants with that price tag need to be perfect.
