No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: Liked the look and feel but not stretchy enough so can't get them over my big skier calves.

Pros:
Comfortable, Lightweight, Moisture Wicking, Snug Fit, Warm
Cons:
Restricts Movement, Too small
Best Uses:
Cold Weather, Cold weather hiking, Running, Skiing
Describe Yourself:
Weekend Warrior
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: These pants are very warm and do wick away moisture. They do not stretch much. I was looking for a very warm base layer to wear for winter hiking, snowshoeing, and skiing. It will work well for this.
I normally wear an extra small in this type of pants, tights. I ordered a large and it just barely fits me. I think that these pants would be great for children. I think that a large would be equivalent to a size 16 child's clothing. I was glad that I read the reviews and ordered a large enough size.
I would not wear these pants without a layer over them. After wearing them two times they are pilling up on the outside.

Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: I should have paid attention to the other reviews stating that these pants fit poorly. They (1) are too tight in the calves (2) the crotch is too low, and (3) there is too much fabric in the butt (although the waist is fine). I wore them around the house to try them out and after 15 minutes my legs felt claustrophobic. The calves are just sooo tight. To get the crotch to be were it's supposed to be, you have to pull them way up, but you can't, because the lower part of the leg is so tight.
thick, warm and not very stretchy
By yogini cyclist - 12 miles to work from nyc on 1/1/2008
Pros:
Comfortable, Lightweight, Moisture Wicking, Snug Fit, Warm
Describe Yourself:
Competitive Athlete
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: These are slick on the outside and fleece on the inside, but were not nearly as stretchy as I thought they'd be. They were also too small, so I returned them and am getting wool instead. They would make nice running tights all by themselves in the winter though. Buy one size up. They are super warm.
Perfect for under my ski pants

Pros:
Comfortable, Snug Fit
Best Uses:

Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Bought new slim fitting ski pants. Needed one layer to keep warm, snug fit but not tight around waist, and high performance. Am happy with purchase, especially for the price!
By Oregon Girl from Portland, Oregon on 12/21/2007
Cons:
Huge through the thighs, Short length through legs, Tight through the calves
Best Uses:
Cold Weather, Running, Snow Sports
Describe Yourself:
Competitive Athlete
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: I purchased a medium and had to give it to my 11 year old daughter. Even then getting the tights over her calves was difficult, and then she was swimming in the rest of the garmet. on a positive note, it does keep her warm.

No, I would not recommend this to a friend
The material is just what i was looking for - a very heavy weight fleece. BUT, the fit is so strange that had they not be so inexpensive, I would definitely return them.
Around my calves, the pants are extremely snug. I can literally barely get them around my socks. the top part of the pants fits ok, the rear is a little saggy and crotch too low. because the calves are so tight, it's hard to pull them up enough.
Believe me! If anything, it's the butt that should be too snug on me - not the calves.
