be careful with sizing

Ranked #99 - Men's Ski Pants
February 8, 2012
i actually went into the backcountry store and tried on both XL and XXL. I am 6 ft tall/230 lbs - waist size 38 inches. XL fits me fine with any of the US Manufacturers; Arcteryx, Spyder, Descente, etc - but with this one XL was tight and XXL fit just fine - it is just a bit longer - which allows for freer knee movement anyways. The overall fit, feel and the quality is great. Very happy with the purchase. Skied with it and enjoyed tremendously. Just be careful with the European sizing. If you are slim and tall then you are ok but if you are the average overweight American male then do a size up. :-)

Same with their Jackets.. I had to size up to XXL - everything else I own is XL. The Jacket is fantastic too.
