Good pants
Great breathability with the vents, flexibility, and waterproofing. The bottoms got cut up quickly from skiing in ways that I’ve never seen before. I don’t think the material is super durable. Would still recommend

Comfortable and Warm Pants
Great pants that are slightly wider in the "hips" allowing you to wear them low on the waist rather than high on the stomach like a few different ski pants brands. I've got a big frame- 36 waist and the L fits nicely. Overall, I've been skiing at Jacksonhole and Whistler with them so far, and they have been perfect. Enough warmth to stay comfortable, but not so warm that you can't wear them on a 20-30 day. If you are in the negatives I recommend a midlayer for your legs, but I hardly ever wear much more than just a thin "legging" layer to pull the sweat away. I expect they'll last a long time, and I have had no issues with them. Highly Recommended!

Tested in the arctic circle!
Needed these pants for a recent trip to north Finland. The fit was right on point, but must say I found them to be a little longer than expected...this wasn't an issue, though. The weather was extraordinarily challenging and these pants stood up to the test. I used these for several hours of ice fishing and they were aces. Yes, you feel the cold of the ice and snow when you kneel down or are otherwise on the ground. However, the chill quickly dissipated and never did the wet penetrate the exterior. These were also wind proof for being on a snow mobile...a life saver, for sure. I'm super happy with the quality, the fit & finish, and the ability to stand up to harsh environments.

Misleading product photos
These pants are super baggy! The product photos are very misleading. Based on the photos, I assumed these would be straight or slim fit, but as you can see from my photo, it looks like I have parachutes on my legs. I would recommend sizing down or just finding a different pair of pants. The build, materials, and features of these pants are great, but I just couldn't imagine the embarrassment I would feel if I actually wore these out in public.
Active snow pants that keep the winter out.
These have replaced my older TNF Gortex Ski Pants. They are great for active winter activities, although not the warmest. I would wear a thicker base layer under. While laying in wet snow they felt wet but ended up being dry as when I put them on. Thinner material allowed more of the cold wet feel in, but not the actual water. The bottom cuffs are a bit wider than most pants, they did not hinder my hiking boots and I am sure would be very well to accommodate a ski or snowboard style boot. I bought the large size and they fit perfectly. I am 6'1" and 175lbs. The medium would be too tight.

Comfortable Outer Layer
Have used for extended periods of time in freezing and sub-freezing temperature for 4-6 hours per day on a variety of winter vehicles. Pants are very well made, water resistant but not waterproof, and are a great outer layer for static and semi static movement in winter conditions. I wish there was some way to cinch the bottom of the legs, but they're well built that even if they do drag they are unlikely to wear out prematurely. Vent Zipper along the crotch is nice for breathability in the temps I was in. Would buy again, but would get a smaller size even wearing pants underneath.
great ski pants
very versital pants. I mostly ski/board in the Midwest and deal with wet snow and slush. these pants do pretty well at keeping me dry. they aren't very heavily insulated so you will need to layer, especially in very cold weather. I'm 6 foot, 195 lbs and the large fits me perfectly.

Great Value Insulated Ski Pants
Been using these pants for a couple weeks and really like them. The reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is the fit. I originally bought a small based on the size chart and they were tight for me with a 31" waist, so returned and got the medium and now I have to cinch the waist straps all the way to get them to fit without using a belt. Also, the length is tough since I'm 5'9" and the regular inseam is long with ski boots. I always wear a regular inseam with OR and these are just an inch or so long. Otherwise they are lightweight and move very well while skiing. Definitely keeping them and may even start using them in the backcountry on cold days since they are light light and have all the features you need for backcountry skiing.
A nice weight for all temps and conditions.
I've been taking these out on avalanche team training evenings, days at the ski hill and plenty of touring. From -5 to -25 these have held up incredibly well, adequate venting allows them to be breathable and comfortable enough in the warmer weather even when uptracking for hours and with everything closed off I have yet to find myself getting chilly in them even in the lower temps. Waterproofing is great as well, favorite feature is the adjusting velcro around the hips since it's never comfy wearing a belt when you're out shredding. Highly recommend!
Great Winter Pants
I have used several times now for winter hiking, camping and snow shoveling the driveway. I have found these pants to run true to size. They are warm & comfortable. I like that they are lightweight and streamline. The inner thigh vents are nice and help prevent overheating. I haven't and probably won't use for skiing. Therefore, my preference would be to incorporate an adjustable bottom/boot cuff (using gators takes care of my issue). Lastly, I am still adjusting to not having any traditional-pants pockets (front & back).
