Comments:
I really like these pants. They're lightweight, yet warm. I only have 2 minor complaints: unlike most Mountain Hardwear gear these don't have a loop on the waistband to hang them up. Secondly, the ankle cuff is pretty tight - if you have boot heaters on your ski boots you really have to work to get the cuffs zipped/snapped closed.

Nice product
By JDGinVerified Reviewer from Oregon on 02/02/2009
Pros:
Comfortable, Durable, Lightweight, Stylish, Waterproof
Best Uses:
Downhill, Snowboarding/Skiing
Gear Usage:
Winter Sports
Inseam:
Feels too long
Waist:
Feels true to size
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Comments:
These pants were very well made. The white seems a little bit less opaque than I would like (need to wear light thermals under them). And they are a shell, with no insulation, so therms are a must in most conditions. But quality is typical of Mountain Hardwear -- very good. And fit was very good. With the exception of the inseam. They seemed 1 inch longer than they were supposed to be, which was just a bit too long for me. So I'm going to return them. I got the regular length. Needed the short, evidently, and they don't have it in stock. It's great that they come in different lengths thought. If it hadn't been for that issue, they would have been keepers.

Not an insulated ski pant
By ski enthusiast from Angola, IN on 01/28/2009
Cons:
Not Enough Pockets or Features, Poor Sizing
Describe Yourself:
Casual/ Recreational
Gear Usage:
Winter Sports
Inseam:
Feels true to length
Waist:
Feels too small
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Comments:
We had to return these pants because they could not be used for skiing or snowboarding since they were not imsulated for warmth. We did not like the super high tight waist design, yet loose through the hips and thighs. This very strange design would not have felt comfortable with long underwear beneath the waist. My daughter and I are the same clothing size and neither of us liked the way the pant fit and were disappointed with the lack of insulation.

Comments:
Wow- these are cute and very well-made. Lots of features. Easy to adjust the waist with velcro tabs and two side zippers to get in. The material is a little on the heavy side for sports that thrive on lots of movement (like skate-skiing) but I will love them for everything else in the cold. and believe it or not, they seem flattering on!

Good waterproof over pants. The full length zippers are nice. Have used them for skiing a few times now worked great. My husband has a similar pair from Mountain Hardwear for about 3 years now and they are still in great shape.

Christmas Present for my Daughter
By lv2clmb from Bellingham,WA on 11/10/2008
Best Uses:
Snowboarding
Gear Usage:
Winter Sports
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Comments:
Mountain Hardwear makes great gear and I want my daughter to have gear that will last her until she wears them out. She needed snowboarding pants, so I looked through a ton of options on STP. I also bought her a pair of Icebreaker long johns for the under layer. She should be one hot chick on the slopes this winter!

no gusset in crotch
By short skiier from Auburn,CA on 09/26/2008
Pros:
Breathable, Durable, Waterproof
Best Uses:
Cross Country, Downhill
Describe Yourself:
Casual/ Recreational
Gear Usage:
Winter Sports
Inseam:
Feels too long
Waist:
Feels true to size
Bottom Line:

Comments:
I bought this pant & Recon Pant also by Mountain Hardwear. Nice pant but doesn't seem any shorter than "regular" Recon Pant. Also no gusset in crotch. Stiffer & probably more sturdy material than Recon Pant but I prefer the softer fabric of Recon Pant. Would have to wear fleece pants or under layer under both pants so I prefer the lighter weight of Recon Pant. Recon Pant fits me better. I'm 4'10" & usually wear size 6-8 pant size. Tried Short Medium to allow room for fleece pant underneath but feels too big and longer than Recon Pant regular length.
