Ranked #84 - Men's Ski Pants
January 12, 2012
Wore this on my first experience with a snow board. Normally I ski, but my friend was dead set on converting me to snowboarding (he failed). I spent a lot of time on my butt and was blasting a lot of heat off from so much exertion, but these pants held up. They didn't let snow in, they fit great, kept me warm, but were vented well enough to keep me from over heating or soaking myself with sweat. I am 6'1" 195 have an athletic build and the large fits well enough; a little loose on the waist. I might consider wearing a belt just to give me a more snug fit, but the length was perfect. I got them in black and I am very happy; they hold up well to conditions. Also, having suspenders helped me to keep them riding right where I wanted them. Overall a great choice. No problem with powder getting where it shouldn't or seepage getting through the material. They are insulated, so I recommend wearing a lighter base layer and leaving it at that, unless you are a natural cold body.
