I've worn these twice so far as a base layer (underneath summer hiking pants) for winter hikes - one in the Adirondacks and one in the Catskills. They kept me warm, even in windy conditions! They are comfortable and I love them. Wish they came in a petite size as they bunch up a bit near my ankle, but otherwise no complaints.
If you are looking for an extra layer while on the mountain, this will do the trick. It’s not overly warm, but is the perfect base layer while boarding or skiing. As someone who gets cold super easily, I personally prefer something warmer for non-sporting outdoor activities.
Cant quite wear them under anything else. The waistband elastic gets all twisted up.
