Great pants for the price, but . . .

I've been looking for some suspender ski pants forever and was really happy to find these still available. Even though I've been warned the HyVent doesn't work as well as GoreTex I figured these would work. Great performance so far--functional and fit great. My only complaint is the suspender system. I like things to fit comfortably (loose-ish) but usually wind up with a size that is too long. These fit great and aren't overly long, but the front-attach suspenders allow the back waist to sag and I get snow down the back of my pants from time to time. These pants are great otherwise, but I will not purchase front-attach suspenders again.
