I was very pleasantly surprised with these pants! The fronts of my thighs normally get very cold riding the chair or in cold temps but these pants kept my legs at a super comfortable temperature on groomed and off piste ski runs. I never got overheated in them and never got too cold! I did size up from my normal M, I do find the thigh diameter for Arcteryx pants fairly small.
Phenomenal pants. They are like a mix of a base layer pant and the atom jacket! Hard to describe but they are so comfy and versatile. They look good in the city running errands as pants but would also be great for winter hikes up North.
These seem nice and comfy and warm... but they are really short. I'm 5'7" and these look like they are cropped on me. I have noninsulated Rho bottoms from this year and last year, and they are longer in the leg.
Hello there, thank you for your feedback on the Rho Hybrid Insulated Bottom. We’re glad you find them comfortable and warm, but we’re sorry to hear the length isn’t working out for you. Your observation about the leg length compared to other Rho bottoms is helpful, and we’ll share this with our design team. If you’d like assistance finding a product with a longer fit, please don’t hesitate to reach out, we’re happy to help!
Cozy, comfy, and great for hanging out in cold weather! Love these for cold mornings in the van or hanging out in camp in the evenings. Comfort and stretch of the Rho leggings but insulated for extra warmth.
I bought these pants to wear beneath my windpants for cold hikes. While very warm and thin enough to layer, they were too short and too tight around the knees. I decided to return them
Thank you for your review of the Rho Hybrid Insulated Bottom. We're glad to hear that you found the pants warm and thin enough for layering. We understand that the fit didn't work out for you, and are sorry you had to return them. Since these are designed as a base layer, they are meant to fit snugly against the body to maximize warmth and comfort. However, we'll be sure to pass your comments along to our design team regarding the tightness in the knees, as feedback helps us to improve our products. Thank you again for your review!
I run very cold and these are amazingly warm wearing alone or under jeans/pants when going out in zero weather in the city and its amazing it doesn't add too much bulk.
Love those pants! They are very cozy and comfortable. Plus: They can be worn under ski pants or single as a third layer. Didn‘t put them of the whole day
It is very warm, breathable and has a very comfortable cutting. I’m 41 kg, 155 cm and size xs fits just right.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pants are warm. The fit is just right - not clingy and not baggy.
