Nice for the Price!

Great Pants! Fit true to size (I bounce around between 35-37" waist and the L fits great, plus there is plenty of adjustment room with velcro tabs on the waist). A little bit stretchy like a soft shell and good cut so the net result is I hardly notice them when wearing them - which is the ultimate endorsement in my book. Light insulation seems appropriate for lift-served downhill skiing. I wore them in some pretty warm weather (40 degrees) and pretty cold weather (10 degrees) with a light synthetic base layer underneath and was quite comfortable. Best of all they really are waterproof and breathable, which is a greatly appreciated after coming home with soggy-bottom the last few years with my old pants.
