Not for a petite lady

B by Burton S. Ride Suit - Women's

Rating for this product: 3 January 14, 2008

Desperately looking for a cute one piece to keep snow out of my pants, I ordered this and a couple others on backcountry.com. This one, like previously mentioned, is made of THICK material. It must be straight Gore Tex or something like that. It is definitely not a softshell material. Because of this, it is very heavy and bulky. I am 5'4" and 125 lbs. I ordered the small, and there was no way it would work. Too bid, too heavy and very bulky! If you are a non-petite lady, this suit might be for you. It would be cute on someone bigger than me.

Cute and Comfortable, Not very wind resistant

Roxy Eden One Piece Suit - Women's

Rating for this product: 4 January 14, 2008

I ordered 3 different one piece snowsuits. I tried them all on and settled on this one. I ordered a xsmall from backcountry.com (because that was all they had at the time).It was too small. I sent it back. I would say that the fit is normal, although a little on the long side for me (5'4"). I normally order a small and since one wasn't available on this site, I went to another. The small fits great and is cute. I took it up to the hill yesterday where it was sunny, 30 degrees with light winds. The wind seemed to come right through the suit. With 2 wool layers on underneath, and not much room for more than that, I got a little cold. Not very wind resistant, but did keep snow out of my britches!

Cute and lightweight

These shorts run a size small. I usually wear a size 5, but I couldn't get these over my hiney. They are cute!

Light and comfortable

B by Burton Beecher Stow Suit - Women's

Rating for this product: 4 January 14, 2008

I ordered this suit in the white color. I am 5'4" and 125 lbs. I ordered the small. The fit was good, the fabric seemed waterproof and was a lot lighter than the other Burton one piece I tried on from this site. I can't say how well it "works" though because I never wore it outside. I ordered the white color. With my helmet and gloves on, I looked like I had just walked off the space shuttle. It would be cuter in another color. I sent it back and settled on the Roxy one piece.

Very comfortable

SmartWool Microweight Boy Brief - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 December 22, 2007

Soft, non-itchy, warm, comfortable wool underwear. I have worn them under skirts, pants and snowboarding. They have never irritated me one bit. Oh, and they are cute too (as far as underwear go). Great purchase. I bought one in both colors, and I'm thinking about getting more.

Mountain Cords

Mountain Khakis Cottonwood Cords - Women's

Rating for this product: 3 August 24, 2007

These pants felt comfortable, but... they had saggy butt written all over them, and they were "high waters" even on me (5'4")! I sent them back.

Tanaya Pant

prAna Tenaya Pant - Women's

Rating for this product: 3 August 24, 2007

These pants were long and baggy. I am 128lbs. and 5'4". I wasn't sure whether I would be a small or medium, so being the experienced online shopper that I am, I bought both. After trying on the small, there was no need to bother with the medium. These pants had a comfortable feel in the legs except that they hung on the floor. The rise came to my natural waist, which I am not a big fan of. Not only that but there seemed to be a "pooch" of fabric around the tummy area that I didn't like. They looked like boys pants on me. Not very flattering. I am an outdoor girl. I like comfort without sacrificing too much cuteness. These didn't do the trick for me. I sent them back.
