Recon Stretch Ski Pant

Whether your mission's objective is to lap the tram as many times as possible or to be descending before sunrise so you can get to work on time, the Black Diamond Recon Stretch Ski Pants want to come along. Their waterproof, breathable BD.dry membrane seals out snow and rain without trapping in vapor to keep you comfortable whether you're doing laps at the resort or hiking for your turns. Four-way stretch construction works with the articulated seat and knees to ensure that you can move without restriction and hold a natural stance without the discomfort of bunching fabric. Offset vents and 1/4-zip leg zippers ensure that you can vent heat when you need to and that you can easily access your boots without a hassle. Reinforced kick patches help the pants stand up to interactions with ski edges and crampons, extending their expected lifespan even if you're clumsy on dawn patrols.

Great purchase

Familiarity:
I've used it several times

I purchased these pants for the added protection over soft shell ski pants. I can still do a full squat and they keep me dry. My new favs!

Low Quality

I was excited to receive my new pants and try them out. I have had them for 6 weeks and they are falling apart. The button on the lower pant leg fell out the first time I used it, and it's gone downhill since then. They have been used for light- minimal activity: mainly walking and a few cross country ski runs. Very disappointed. The fit was great, if not a little too big. Comfortable, flexible, warm...just low quality.

I’m so stoked on these

I’m so stoked on these pants! I bought them for work and they’ve kept me dry in pouring rain and wet snow. The fabric is holding up great to daily use. They’ve also got enough room for an extra layer for the cold days. Just wish they came with a shorter inseam option.

Great fit and function

Excited to try out these new ski pants. They seem really durable, built to last and are comfortable and fit me really well. I'm 5'8" 135lb and tried the medium and small and found the small to fit perfectly, the mediums were definitely too roomy all over. The pants I had a lot of features I was looking for, including a belt and vents on the side. I do wish the vents had netting to keep the vent from totally gaping open. I also hope that BD will consider vents on both the inside and outside of the legs in the next iteration of these pants. Also hoping the beacon specific pocket was on the thigh in a cargo type pocket to get it that much farther away from my phone, which will obviously now be on my upper body, so that there's no interference.

Recon pants for the win

Last season, I bought the Recon bibs, which I love. So, this season I got the Recon pants for those days when I don't need bibs. I love the fit, style, comfort, quality, and performance in all conditions. And BD's excellent warranty is a plus, too. For reference, I'm 5'6" 135 lbs and ordered a S. When they arrived, I tried them on with a pair of insulated 3/4 puffy pants and knee pads, and the fit was still perfect.

Love the changes

I’ve had the old model for a long time. Love the new pockets and place for a phone. The stretch is fantastic. Bought the large, I’m 5,7”, 155lbs.

Good fit

Ordered the small and the adjustable belt really helps the fit. Good pockets as well

So so

I had these pants the last two seasons but never loved them. I have an athletic build with narrow hips and found they would always fall down as the built in belt isn't great. I blew through the crotch and then yesterday the seams fell apart on the butt. The cuffs are a STRUGGLE to get over my boots. Overall not long lasting quality but they filled a void of ski pants the last two seasons. Fairly comfy. Size small Height 5 3 138lbs

Love these pants!

I was excited to find a waterproof stretch pant for skiing. They are super comfy and keep me warm with a thermal layer underneath. I went up a size and they are pretty true to size but I wanted space. The belt allows to tighten at waist, if needed. The beacon pocket has a thick liner in it, which looks a bit like I have a folded map in my pocket, but it will work great when I'm using a beacon so I'm ok with it. I would definitely recommend these pants!
