Smartwool  Intraknit Thermal Merino Base Layer Bottoms - Women's

I was back & forth between these & the other cheaper Smartwool base layers. Eventually I went into the store to try both. After reading all the reviews I thought for sure I was going to get the other base layer but it turned out the Intraknit was WAY softer. I am a bit of a oversensory human when it comes to itchy wool on my skin & these do not itch at all. I wear them outside in the Winter for 12+ hours on end & have worn them in negative temperatures. I am usually a Small all around but ended up getting a Small top & Medium bottoms to accommodate for my long legs + a little extra comfort while working outside. Very breathable, I hardly need to wash them! HIGHLY recommend.

I got these bottoms and the matching shirt on the recommendation of my brother who swears by Smartwool. For context, my brother is the type to go hike up a mountain alone and sleep up there just to go backcountry skiing in the most desolate of places. My father lives in a colder area so finds the Smartwool products useful for outdoor activities also. I am a creature of comfort. Anyway, I felt very comfortable in the shirt and matching bottoms. I would say that this brand does not follow the vanity sizing of many women’s brands - I had to size up for tops and bottoms. (I am leaving the same review for both the top and the bottom.)

Favorite thermal leggings. Lasted 4 years before becoming thread bare in seat.

The greatest pants I own. I'm wearing them right now (in black) and came back to buy a second pair. Warm and comfy. Perfect base layer for skiing. I would wear these all winter long if I could. I did have to size up but I tried them on in store so no worries. I'm 5'8", 120 lb and a medium is great. So many base layer pants are too short, baggy in weird places, or just a funny fit on me but these are like a glove. I tried on about 8 different other models in multiple stores before finding these, so you know I'm picky.

I bought these for a trip to Iceland in February. They are comfortable and warm, being the most important two things. I thought since these were intraknit they would fit better to your legs so they would be smooth underneath my other layer but they are kind of loose. I wore them under a horseback riding winter jumpsuit, under fleece lined hiking pants and sometimes around the property under a puffy skirt. I would recommend them with the caveat that if you are looking for a fitted layer, I wouldn't, but just for warmth yes. These are not like the previous smartwool pants I purchased which were more like activewear leggings

I walk my dog every morning in Michigan, and it gets very cold in the winter. Even though these pants are expensive, they are worth every penny! I would highly recommend them.

Unbelievably warm, yet light weight. Perfect under my snowboarding gear. Not too hot, not cold at all. Worth EVERY PENNY!

I have never worn this type leggings before as I'm a jeans type gal. But listening to other talk and watching what others wear at the local ski resorts i thought i would get it a try and see how it works out! I love it they are so comfy and warm enough for our skiing outing only thing i miss it pockets!!

At 5'8, 125 lbs,I bought the medium. SO TIGHT in the waist but fit elsewhere. I returned and bought the large and while the waist is better, but they are baggy in the thighs (leaving layers of fabric on my inner thigh, not flattering at all!). Not sure what to do, it seems like there is a big difference between sizes and while I love the pant (I wear them as leggings all day long) I don't know what to do about the sizing. Wish the medium had a slightly larger waist so it didn't pinch so much. I din't like clothes that feel like a corset. BTW, I bought these at Backcountry so I'm not a 'verified' reviewer. . . .

Very comfortable and warm leggings. I’m 5”4 140lb athletic body, got myself size Medium. I love that design of these leggings keeps them up
