C Johnson is right; if you have an athletic build (a skier or cyclist with a slim waist and muscular legs), these pants fit horribly. And I actually prefer a super-tight fit for base and mid layers. I love the R1 top and really wanted to like these, but they don't work. The waist is loose, but my thighs are practically ripping the seams. I can't bend my knees freely, and, as C Johnson said, I can't pull them above my ski boots because the bottom of the pant leg won't fit over my calf. I can't size up because the waist would be way too big. I'm disappointed because I love the material, but the shape is all wrong. Also, I don't know anything about snowboard boots, but if you can fit pants this thick into the upper part of your ski boots, your boots don't fit you.

lame review. these are perfect for sliding pants over because they're slim fit and hug your leg more like a real layer is supposed to do. pay not attention to this review.

Sounds like someone put on some weight and tried to fit their big butt in a small pair of pants. Discard this reviewer, he's obviously in denial.

If the r1 pants you bought are cutting off circulation, get a bigger size moron... I have both the old loose cut and new tight cut R1 pants and I prefer the tighter fit. For me it makes it easier to slide my snowboarding boots over them, with the old loose fit, I couldn't do that. In no way do they cut off circulation, they are great for skiing/snowboarding.
