Very good pants

I have been rocking a size L in these babies for about 3 years, but one too many apres-ski Chipotle trips pushed me to buy a new pair in XL this year. TNF made a couple minor but nice improvements to the pants, and I continue to like them a lot.
I think it says something when you can slap on ski pants in the morning, patrol all day long in all kinds of conditions with a lot of wear and tear, and then repeat day after day. The pants just work, and work well.
The revised model has some odd-looking suspenders which I was a little apprehensive about, but they actually function better than the traditional suspenders on my last pair.
All said, I give these pants a strong recommendation. For the price, they are a good buy.

What size is your waist. I'm trying to decide between a L or XL. I'm 6' 200lbs and wear a 36 in jeans. I wanted to be able to wear insulation underneath and I'm just wondering how the fit works for you? Thanks.
