Outdoor Research Intuition Ski Pants - Soft Shell (For Women)

They looked nice, but the sizing was too small - luckily I'd ordered another brand at the same time, and those fit fine. Also, a bit pricey for what they are.

I bought these pants for all around winter sport use. I live in West Yellowstone so they have been put to the test. They are fabulous for all uses.

I think these may be intended to ride on your hips, as is the style today. They are very big in the waist, and a little short in the rise, so I have to use a belt. I thought about returning them for a smaller size, but I'd rather have them too big than too small, and they are only just long enough. Even so, they'll do. I like the thigh vents, and the mesh lining of the pockets, which means you can use them as vents, too. It is hard to say much about any product until you wear it for a while. I use my snow pants for skiing, snowshoeing, winter bicycling and wind up wearing them pretty much all the time, so a lot remains to be seen.

Have wanted these ski pants for a long time, I like soft shell pants. Haven't used these on the slopes yet but know already that they will be warmer than my last pair which I had worn out...these will last longer because they are reinforced in the right spots. Great brand! Great price! I am a 12 usually (in some things 14) and the Large is great- room for a layer underneath if wanted.

I took the advice of other reviews and bought a size larger than I would have, or they would have been too small in the waist. These pants sit just above your hip bones, flattering fit, very comfortable and attractive aki pants.
