Gear Review
70% Stoked 30% Bummer
By MC April 22, 2012
I'm glad I got these on sale because they are in no way waterproof. You can't sit on packed powder for five seconds without getting thoroughly soaked through the insulation & through your long underwear too!
BUT these are the ONLY pants who's waist adjusts tight enough to really stay up on deep, soggy days AND ALSO loosens enough for park/mogul riding & road tripping to the mountain.
