Great Fit

By aDam January 12, 2012

OK, I gave these pants 3 stars. Why? Well....

Pros:
They are Gore-tex - give you excellent piece of mind in crappy weather.. i.e sitting on the lift in a rain cloud.
They are Burton - full of great features like gangster vents and the internal waist size adjuster (great for when you've consumed too much on the hill ;)
Great fit, look nice - almost like a boot cut fit where they are 'snug' around the crutch, and flared from the knees down.

Cons:
No room for armour - the close fit around the crutch leaves no room for those boxer shorts that protect ya ass with hard plastic armour. If you want these pants AND want the armour then go a a size up form ya regular fit.
The snow sticks - unlike the AK range, the fabric used here allows the snow to stick which can make you feel a bit colder in the minus temps. I love the AK range for the materials used where snow and rain just flys of the surface.

I think they look great, but for the reasons above I'm going to give it a 3/5.
