Tried them on and was immediately impressed by the fit. It's hard for me to find pants long enough, especially these type of pants as they rarely come in anything other than one size fits all, in terms of length. I ordered the 36 length, which is usually just about right for me (maybe a touch long, but I'd rather have long than short). I find myself rolling these up just a bit so I don't step on the back. I may order again, with the 34 length which I think will be long enough. In terms of my waist, I usually wear a 34 or sometimes a 36 waist and I ordered these in 34 and the stretch makes them almost perfect. In terms of warmth, I can't say they are EXTREMELY warm, but not bad. For example, I wore them this morning on my morning walk. The temperature was 24 degrees F, with a slight breeze. I had a base layer on underneath. As I stepped outside, I could barely feel the cold...and by the end of my walk, I was sweating. I'm anxious to try these in colder weather. Windproof seems OK. I've yet to experience anything more than a "breeze", so far. Where I live, the temperature can get to sub zero, with 30 MPH winds, so the wind chill can be 30 below 0 (or even much colder on occasion - Walked in -60 degree wind chill a couple times - I'm talking bitter cold). With my previous walking pants, it would take 3 layers to handle the worst wind chill. I suspect these pants will take 3 layers at that level too. And I do walk every morning, even in those conditions. So it'll be interesting to see how they perform. I thing 2 layers will handle everything but the most intense wind chill. Waterproofing hasn't been tested yet, but I'm fairly certain they are not 100% waterproof, but at least water resistant, which should help with snow, but not a downpour of rain. They are comfortable. I do wear a belt, as the "stretch" of the elastic can make them feel a touch loose. But very comfortable! I wouldn't call them "skinny" pants at all, but I would not call them baggie at all either. I have thinner legs and I feel like these pants hug my legs well (or at least better than most ). I don't like baggy when walking moving a lot. If you are buying these to ski, I would think they might have some trouble fitting over a larger ski boot. They do stretch and may work, but they are what I would call an "athletic" fit (if not a skinny fit) Not a lot of extra material, but enough stretch to compensate some. I've only had them about 3 weeks and wear them regularly when walking and wore them one evening inside. They weren't too warm inside, but it was cold in the house! I really like these so far and would recommend them. EDIT: Still love these and have bought multiple pairs over time. The things I like the most are the custom length (which is often one standard length with most of these pants). I also like the style. As I mentioned, not SUPER warm, but they are comfortable in most cool situations and on most any cold situation with a base layer underneath. The stretch waist is both a blessing and a curse. Very comfortable, but you may need a belt with these as they feel a little "loose" at the waist. Zippers have held up pretty well, although I would say they are probably the weak point, along with the belt loops. Still....love them. Overall, I personally really like these and highly recommend.

I got a size too small and they stretched enough to fit regardless, I use these on my motorcycle on cold mornings and they have worked phenomenally. Be careful if you use these for that purpose though as they will absolutely melt with any kind of heat so if you touch a muffler or engine,etc. otherwise perfect and I'll be buying these again when these wear out. The zipper on the legs is great as I can just slip out of them without taking my shoes off.

I'm 6'2" about 265lbs. I normally wear 38WX34L in jeans and that usually fits perfectly. These fit snug with that same sizing. To their benefit, they stretch nicely and move with you. The legs fit great. Across the zipper area they were a little snug but the waist fit perfectly. So it seemed if I had gone larger on the waist they may not have fit correctly at the waist at all. The comfort level is there though. They are soft and warm. I have yet to use them to ski or for any rigorous cool/cold weather activity. I will update this review once I've done so. The plan is to try and use them for skiing and see if, with a nice base layer, they keep me warm and dry enough. I have a pair of Oakly ski pants but they are large and bulky, wanted to get something a bit slimmer and less bulky to see if they would perform better. We shall see. With the snugness of the front we shall see if they flex enough for a good ski experience. The feel of the fabric seems rugged and the stitching (based on some others that reviewed the stitching came out) on these seems solid but, again, haven't put them to the test yet. The length fit perfectly and the waist fit perfectly as well for me. The problem was the fit across the zipper area and that's really about it - I'm an athletic build so my legs are a little larger then most so the pants fit snug on my legs as well but due to the stretch do not appear to be a problem. The cut of these pants are definitely for the thinner folks and not the more athletic shape. No need to buy a size up with these, like I said, the length and waist were perfect, it's the "skinny" cut that seems to make them snug. Will update with how they performed on the mountain once ski season comes back around. UPDATE: I used these skiing and performed just fine, however, they look like skinny jeans / pants and if you have a bulky ski jacket on it looks a little silly. They did the job at keeping me warm enough for a day where it was in the upper 20's and sunny while I was skiing. They kept me warm and dry enough. I did not wear them on colder ski days as I'm not sure they would have performed well enough for those days. I wear them while sitting outside by the fire when it's 40's and below and they keep me plenty warm. They are super comfortable even still after having them now for a couple cold seasons and being washed, etc. I do like these pants and they are plenty rugged as well.

Just what I wanted. I used them for many long hiking and skiing days this winter. So warm, so cozy, very sturdy even for glissading and pockets that aren’t at an angle stuff falls out of easily. Stretchy waist that doesn’t overly pinch. I’d say more of an athletic fit and they aren’t baggy enough to fit on the outside of ski boots. Not suitable for warm days but thick enough for almost any level of cold even midwinter hikes in the northeast.

These pants really surprised me. They're flexible enough to easily bend and twist, durable enough to handle plenty of unintended tumbles on the slopes, and versatile enough to keep you VERY comfortable and dry whether you're in a normal temperature room or skiing in below freezing temps for 6 hours straight. Fitment is very comfy and forgiving with the elastic-like waistband. I'm usually a 31, but a 30 fit great even with thermals underneath. The outer shell keeps you completely protected from the elements, and the soft lining is nicely breathable which prevents sweat buildup (keeping you in a perfect comfort zone). I was honestly skeptical that these would be up to par for ski pants, but these were so much better than the ridiculously puffy overalls that half of the rest of my group were complaining about all day. Plus, they look pretty good too. I went from a meeting in the morning to skiing all day to dinner at a steakhouse after without a single concern about my attire. I wish I grabbed a pair a few months ago!

Before XMAS I purchased a pair of Northbound Gear pants for over $80 direct from their site. They made it sound like the pants were special and from Canada. Then last week I was in an elevator in Boston and one of the guys who lived in the building had on the exact same pair of pants. He got his here on Amazon under a "no name". Well I have since learned these are identical in every way down to the exact color stitching, zippers, etc. The ONLY thing different was the brand and the price. THESE were 1/2 the price. When I ordered from North bound Gear I had ordered 32/30's since this is my true waist and length, but when they arrived they felt a little big around the waist and a little long length wise. Since they have a belt loop the slightly loose fit didn't bother me and the length probably was designed to be a bit longer to fit over snow / ski boots. But when I ordered this pair from Amazon I decided to get a 30/28 and this was the perfect size. I don't know if all their waist and length sizes run large, but you might consider going one size smaller in the waist and length department. Even with the 30/28 I still will likely need a belt, but I would size its the perfect size. So 32/30 real life = 30/28 for these pants. Love the pants, the knee's that don't wear out, the zippered bottom for going over boots, and the zippered pockets. All in all a great pair of pants, especially at 1/2 the price of some of the "other companies" pretending to be the original.

I wondered what I should say about these. For the price they are good. BUT... they are thinner - they were pretty warm around 30F, but I would have been cold in the 10F. Also they are tight. They fit, but there really isn't room for base layers. Also I ski'd in them and it was a struggle to get them over the boot. They have zipper on the ankles so I was able to get it over the boot, but it was tight and I can't imagine the seams or zippers to last - it is just too tight. They are soft shell, and more suited for hiking. I will keep them, and I think they would be better for warmer ski days, but I wouldn't wear them on colder days. They look nice though and the zippers on all the pockets were awesome. Just not as well suited for skiing as I had hoped.

Muy buenos, ligerisisisisimamente pequeños, pero todo bien

Great value! I tried these trousers out on a night shift with some outdoor work: they were too warm. This is a good thing as I was looking for work trousers for really cold days (and nights). They are very comfortable (I hate itchy material in clothes) with a nice amount of stretch. I haven’t tried them in rain yet but no waterproof clothes keep you really dry (if they keep all of the rain out you will sweat inside and get just as wet) so I won’t expect them to protect me in a monsoon but I’m sure that time will come soon. The fit is slim which I like. Muscular legs will be a tight fit but I’m skinny. The sizing was perfect: the same as my jean size. My only “complaint” is that a side pocket on the thigh would be nice but I knew these trousers didn’t have any so I can’t moan. I love these trousers: comfortable, stylish, practical, warm and a great price.

Also ich kann diese Hose nur empfehlen!Die normale Größe sonst, passt perfekt! Nach einem ersten Test bei Regen, musste ich nur mit einem Blatt Küchenrolle die Wassertropfen an den Hosenbeinen abwischen und gut, diese Hose hält bei normalem Regen dicht! Einziges Manko, man sollte einen Gürtel tragen, da beim hinknien die Hose etwas rutscht am Hinterteil, aber das ist Jammern auf höchstem Niveau! Abschließend kann ich diese Hose echt nur empfehlen, passt, warm, bequem und wasserdicht bei normalem Regen!

It was a good deal
