Kenyon Polarskins Long Underwear Bottoms - Heavyweight (For Women)

I know these are pretty much designed for wearing under jeans, etc in cold weather and they are excellent for this purpose, but I also use them for pajamas in the winter time along with the matching crew neck tops. They make awesome PJ's. I can't get enough of Polar Skins tops and bottoms. They are fabulous!

Ordered these in a small but when I tried them on they were way too tight in the waist. They fit fine everywhere else and would have been a great base layer. The material felt soft and warm. Ended up giving them to my mom who is a petite 5'2. I might order another pair in medium.

I got these for a cold backpacking trip to be worn under thin hiking pants or alone for sleeping. I like them fine except the waistband is tight and the rise is very high. I don't like things tight around my waist and I even ordered a size up to try to head this problem off. As far as the waistband, it can't easily but cut and to make the pants useful for me I'd have to cut off the whole thing and drop in new elastic after decreasing the rise so they don't pull up to my ribs! Will return them.

They seem to be just what I was looking for.

I agree with the other reviewers...what body type did Kenyon use to make these guys? The waist is somewhere around the ribcage, which if you can even get the pants that high, you're awesome! - because the waist line on these pants is for someone who eschews food 24/7. I wear size 0-2 in pants, got these in a small (should have listened to the reviewers, medium might have worked) and no way were those suckers making it past my knees. The fabric also feels a little stiff but probably warm. I figured they'd be good for sleep and around house. What they ended up being great for is the brown box they came in. Returned!
