Primary use: Motorcycle ride to work in rain/sleet. Secondary use: snowboarding. Strengths: Articulated elbows offer great fit in any position. Water-sealed seams are legitimate even in a total down pour you will remain dry as a bone. Materials look and feel quality and reinforcements are positioned appropriately. Colors are vibrant! Weaknesses: Fit could be slimmer, but once you've got some warm layers under this shell you almost need the room. Helmet compatible hood is bulky and only useful on rare occasions. Overall: The right choice if you need absolute dryness and quality fabrics/zippers that will last.

Primary use: Snowboarding. Strengths: Articulated knees offer great fit even when crouched. Water-sealed seams are legitimate even in substatial moisture you will remain dry. Materials look and feel quality and reinforcements are positioned appropriately. General fit is slim, eliminating bulk. Size options offer tall. I am a 6'0" female and the men's medium tall fits perfectly. Weaknesses: I'd prefer a hip stash pocket on both sides. The light-weight nature of these shell pants means if yous spend much time on your rear in the snow (without sufficient layering), you'll be feeling the cold! Overall: Glad I bought them, would gladly recommend them.
