Great Resort Pants

By Christopher DeBeer Ranked #479 - Men's Ski Pants December 22, 2010

I got these last year when I switched to these last year from a MH Defiant pant and while they're a bit "roomy" they are great for the resort. The fit doesn't restrict when jibbing and catching air. They're also good for a cold day on the slopes in my usual spot: "Breckenfridge".The zips on these are on the inside of the pants, not the outside, which strangely enough seems to dump heat better and keeps the snow out if you take a tumble.I've got a 30" inseam and these come in a "short" version which is just perfect for ski boots. Still bunchy at the bottom but gives you room when you're jumping.As the review states, these are great resort pants but I don't think I'd want them for a long day where I was doing a lot of hiking or walking. I've got the Arcteryx Beta AR's for that (much thinner with a slimmer fit that also come in "short"). These are good for a day at the resort and are reasonably priced for Patagonia quality.
