The North Face Fargo Cargo Pant - Men's - 2010 BCS

These are one of favorite ski pants, and I'm on my second pair. My first pair was its predecessor the monte cargo. Now I'm on my second pair, the fargo cargo, and I couldn't be happier. These things are really stylish. They are definitely modern and athlete inspired. They are baggy enough that you have some extra room, a little sag, and still look cool, without being so baggy that you look like a park rat with a tall tee. I'm 5'8" and 160 lbs, and the medium fit perfectly. These things are super functional too. They have tons of pockets everywhere. The cargo pockets are HUGE and store a lot of snacks and other things. They are pretty waterproof and breathable. I used them all winter long, about 50 days of skiing, and skied in ever condition except pouring rain, and these kept me dry and warm, but not too warm. And after almost 50 days of skiing, the only damage is a few small nicks in the fabric on the inner ankle area from the ski edge brushing against it. Solid pants for a great price.

Pants are great- waterproof - you need to have them.

Great pants and they look good too. I wear a pair of long johns under them and I'm comfortable and warm. I feel like I should be headed down for happy hour in Aspen or Vail - not in south east Michigan where I live. I think I 'd do the bib style though next time. I'll try to pick up a pair at the end of season sales. Great service from Back Country and I even used the "Live Chat" feature for a little guidance on sizing. It's a great asset and handy resource. As a result, the pants fit great right out of the box - first time.

Well i bought these pants because my friend had a similar pair of North face pants. When i got them out of the box i new that i loved the simple style of the pants but once i got them on me i fell in love with the fit also!
I could not recommend these pants higher!~

Fit: size L and actually fits a tall skinny person!

Get yourself into these bad boys!~

Anyone who's read any of my previously knows that there aren't many pieces of gear that I have that I don't gush about but I can honestly say that these are the best ski pants I've ever owned in my 17 years of skiing. Warm enough on their own that I can get away without wearing a base layer and baggy enough that I don't feel restricted and can move around comfortably. The mesh lined vents are great for keeping me cool while keeping snow out and they fit true to size. The only knock on them if I could call it that is that they are so popular it can be a little difficult finding the size and color you want. That said, I wouldn't trade these for two or three of any other pants.

I'm 6' 3" 225 and the XL's were way too long and big in the seat as well. I would suggest size L. Great pants. They lean towards Neon green, hence the name "GLO". The pic is more on the Kelly green side so it's a little misleading. Great pants though
