Bottom Line:

Well made, durable snow pants. They feel true to size in the hips, thighs and waist. The waist hits at the waist. The crotch is long, but it works well to fold the belt over once - adjusts the fit and keeps the extra belt length neatly in place. Full length zippers and ankle tabs make for easy access and adjustment. Good outside protection for cold weather biking as well as skiing.

Bottom Line:

i agree with the other review, the crotch is long, but it didn't inhibit any movement for me. i think they are meant to sit high on the waist, which didn't bother me. for the price, they are definetely worth keeping. the material is great and the cut allows plenty of room for a fleece pant underneath.

Great fabric bad fit
By jonnymtmanVerified Purchaser from CO temporarily displaced in Germany on 9/6/2006
Pros:
Breathable, Lightweight, Waterproof
Cons:
Oddly long crotch
Best Uses:
Backcountry

We love our Epic Jackets and thought it would be great to have the pants while hiking through wet Germany. The normal size for my wife came with a 13" fly/crotch. Besides looking odd, they inhibited movement. We sent them back and bought a comparible marrmot pant.
