I've been using these for about a month now and have been very impressed. They fit very snugly and give great dexterity. I'm a ski instructor so there are a lot of times where I'm buckling kids boots up and zipping jackets up, etc. Rarely do I have to take these gloves off to do that. I have also used these on several days where it has been 15F or colder out and these gloves have been surprisingly warm. Not mitten warm, but definitely warm enough to be comfortable outside for 6 hours on bitter days. They seem to be durable and well constructed. Also, the packet of NikWax that comes with them was a nice little touch on Backcountry's part.

I'm a PSIA certified ski instructor so I spend a lot of time hanging out on the hill and have been very happy with these pants so far this season. The multiple pockets are big and easy to get to, which I love when I'm teaching a class and need to constantly reach for pencils and note cards. I have yet to have a day where I felt either cold or overheated in theses pants. A simple thermal base layer under them does the trick. I'm a 32 waist, and 32 inseam and the mediums fit just right. The waist is snug but comfortable and the legs flare out enough at the cuff to make them easy to slide on and off ski boots even with gloves on. Perfect for when you need to adjust your boots on-hill on a cold, windy day.
