Sierra Designs Elevation Pants - Waterproof (For Women)

I found myself walking in rain quite often this winter. Having purchased a lightweight & waterproof jacket from you earlier this year, I was ready to get a good rainy day pant that would keep me warm & dry. This one is perfect--it slips easily over jeans without feeling too snug or bulky. The pockets hold my keys & cell phone, keeping them dry. The zipper at bottom of pant legs allows me to put on/take off pants with shoes/boots on. I feel free to walk in any kind of weather, even in a storm, and know that I will stay dry and warm thanks to the great waterproof fabric & seaming. After my walk, I can hop into my car, whip off the wet pants and then drive away feeling comfortable in my very dry & warm jeans.

I bought these for tennis...to use as warm-up pants or for cool weather playing. The description stated they are breathable and waterproof, so I thought they would also be good for hiking in wet weather. I took them on the courts for some early morning tennis and found the fit to be comfortable. They fit over my tennis clothes very easily without being bulky. The inseam was just right...many times they're too long. The leg zippers allowed me to take them off easily without having to remove my shoes. The pants are light and packable, but I don't believe they're breathable. I cooked up a sweat pretty fast and had to take the pants off sooner than I planned even though it was still pretty cool outside. You really can't beat the price for a lightweight, packable rain pant, but I wish they were truly breathable.

I bought these pants because I commute by bike in the Pacific Northwest, and my old rain pants were a little tired. A thirty minute ride in the rain left me with wet clothing. I would definitely go with another brand.

I bought a pair of these for biking to work in the wet Pacific Northwest weather. Got these for my son to bike to school and he loves them. He's pretty tall and the length is perfect. Had to get women's because he's thin and the men's were too big, but these worked great. He stays dry all the way to school, hangs them, and they're dry by the time he rides home.

I love these pants and I hate they are being discontinued[...] I am an outdoors person and love to play even in the rain, so I'm hoping this is my answer to keeping dry!
