Marmot 8000M Down Pant - Men's
These were returned! Sorry!

Ranked #23 - Men's Pants

Very warm, I suppose. But clunky.
A draw string waist would have made the difference, since there is only one other pants this warm: the Mt. Hardware Absolute Zero pants, also without a draw string, though the description says it has it. Both went back: Why have all that warmth, if the waist is loose and lets it out???
And the suspenders should be wider and padded, or something, to make them more comfortable. Though the insulation is lightweight down, there is so much of it that the pants weighed heavily on my rather thin shoulders, and annoyed me immensely. They are also stiff-feeling because they are so stuffed so full.
A redesign, making these pants more comfortable and with adjustable waist, would make it a winner......though I could do without the wild coloring.
