Exceptionally Warm

Ranked #365 - Men's Pants
January 27, 2010
These are replacing a more than 10-year old pair of North Face Nuptse Pants. So far they are GREAT. Very warm, the half-moon zip mirrors my climbing bibs, and Mountain Hardwear makes really dourable stuff. My only complaint is the lack of pockets. It would be stellar if there was a pocket on the thigh or on the interior for small items.
I'm using these in conjunction with the Absolute Zero Parka for belays and stops while climbing in the winter here in Colorado. So far, no complaints.
