Awesome product and customer service
Awesome product and customer service, return was super easy and customer service took care of reordering the correct size. When return was processed I got an email indicating it happened! No one has ever reached me this well. Great job!! After using the pants, I found they are quite warm, almost to warm for me. I can't wait for some more minus 20+ weather to truly try them. If they are at all like the jacket and boots they will be super warm and comfortable.... Show more

Fairly good
They definitely keep you warm however, I feel they are too baggy even the short run a little bit long and they don’t offer some small adjustment opportunities like Velcro at the cups of the bottom of the pants or adjustments to the waist. Overall, they are the most spartan pair of snow pants out there. They do the job and come in at a good price but if you’re looking for additional customization, this may not be the right pair for you.... Show more

Good basic ski pants
This is similar to other columbia products with a this insulation layer and the shiny reflective lining. The XXL was huge, like all the way cranked down and still three inches of space around my waist. The XL is snug but fits. Seems like a big difference between the two. The pants are pretty straightforward. It would be nice if there were cargo pockets on the sides for things like phones and kleenex, but the front pockets are pretty deep. zippers on the legs would be nice too for venting and or for adjusting ski boots. The higher end model does have these but those don't come in short inseams.... Show more

Great find
Love these pants. Especially appreciate the back pockets. Why wouldn't you put in back pockets? This is my most recent Columbia purchase and have been a satisfied customer with every purchase. Fit is dead on, quality is great.... Show more

Great pant, warmer than expected!
When I was looking for a shell style pant for wearing over my merino wool lower layer, i wanted to find something that wasn’t bulky but provided warmth. Boy did I score with these, they are warm, light and not bulky at all!I researched other options for OR, OV, Arc’teryx and the like but they were very cost prohibitive for a piece of gear I am not sure how many times I will actually use. When I came across these, I was naturally skeptic all at first, low cost usually means low quality and being cold and miserable. Boy was I wrong, these are such a great piece of bear and I have total confidence in them when taken into the back country and I stay warm, but most importantly dry as they breath well. The Omni-Heat is an interesting product and for what it’s worth, I am ...

The Omni-Heat is an interesting product and for what it’s worth, I am not sure how long it will last, but for the price of these and the results they have already delivered, I am okay with the risk.The only downside as mentioned before in another review, they do ride high in the crotch so be aware of that....

Paper thin fabric unfit for snow sports
I got these pants for skiing and they got completely shredded at the bottom just from rubbing against the ski boots after just a couple days’ use. Incredibly disappointed considering the price. The insulation is good but the outer layer is paper thin and the durability is just not there. The quality is totally unacceptable for a name brand. Buyer beware.... Show more

Ski Pants
Purchased for a trip to Snow Valley and wanted something that would keep me dry and warm. The overall fit of the pants was perfect once I added suspenders. The elastic pant cuffs kept snow out and wind chill while I was in my ski shoes, and any falls I had on the mountains still had the pants looking intact. My behind didn't feel uncomfortable whenever I sat down either. No movability issues as far as I can tell. Solid snow pants.... Show more

Ski pants for teenager
Excellent product as usual. Altitude have a great selection of products. The only issue was delivery. I think it was done by a 3rd party, and it was much longer than usual. Luckily sking season hadn’t started yet. I most likely will order from them again.... Show more

Very Good Snow Pant
These Snow Pants are great. The fit and length (I got short) were perfect. In the mountains they kept me very warm with just a wool base layer underneath. After falls they kept me dry. They do everything I wanted them to do. The only feature that is missing is some zipper vents. But I knew that when I bought them.... Show more

Very happy with these pants.
These pants fit excellent. I am 6 ft 3 and thin build. I got medium/long and they worked out perfectly. Very comfortable to wear all day long. Warm yet lightweight. Already purchased a second pair! Hopefully they'll have more colors available soon so I can buy a third pair!... Show more
