Boulder Gear Ali Ski Pants - Waterproof (For Women)

I like these pants fro two main reasons: 1. they are long. I am 5'9'' and finding the right length is always a problem; 2. they sit on the waist and keep me warm. If you prefer low-waist pants, those are not for you. I don't know how durable they are, I only used them twice for cross country skiing, but they are definitely comfortable, waterproof and pretty warm without being bulky - another advantage. Warning: they do run small. I normally wear size 8, sometimes even 6, depending on the style. I ordered two pairs, one in size 10, one in size 12. Size 10 was OK in the hips, but the waist was lower, so I returned them and kept size 12 for comfort and more freedom of movement. So if you are looking for the same features as I am - high waist and length, those pants are for you then.

The style was great however for extremely cold weather the material was too light to keep out the cold. Skiing on a day with no wind and no extreme temperatures the product worked as advertised.

JUST TO KEEP WARM

Love these raspberry pink snow/ski pants so much that when I gained weight, I bought them again in a bigger size. I get a ton of compliments on them. I've bough matching accessories on this site. They fit snugly and look very stylish. However, there are no pockets -- which is the biggest down side for me. I'm 5'5" and long-legged (all my height is in my legs) so I did not find the pants to be too long. Love the rise in the back to help keep out snow. On a cold day for downhill skiing you may want to wear long undies underneath. I found them to be too warm for snowshoeing uphill in late winter/early spring.

practical for everyday sledding in the backyard and stylish on the slopes. daughter very satisfied.
