Disappointed...

Ranked #4 - Women's Pants
January 7, 2009
I was really optimistic about these snow pants after reading the reviews, only to be very disappointed...
First of all, I was hoping these pants would be "slim fit". I have a very athletic build, and these pants are tight around my upper thigh, and pretty loose everywhere else. Also, I wore these for A DAY and had my iPhone in one of the front pockets... and the material of the snow pants started fraying in the shape of my iPhone! I can't possibly imagine how these snow pants would last through a MONTH seeing as I'm a snowboard instructor and ride 5 days a week. The snaps on the bottom also have a tendency to come apart. And lastly, if you are looking for BLACK snow pants, don't order these! They are NOT black... they're more of a gunmetal dark gray.
I am impressed by the insulation though. It's thin insulation, but they were surprisingly warm... And I get cold VERY easily. And though they're not as "slim fit" as I'd like them to be, they do have great style... so I'm sad to say I'm going to have to be returning these... they just won't last.
