ArctixWomen's Snow Sports Insulated Cargo Pants

I have lived in Colorado my whole life, and have been an avid skier for many of those years. Now, I mostly use snow pants to play with my 5-year-old son in the snow. Regardless, these pants are amazing! As a tall woman (5'11"), I've dealt with ski pants that are either too short, look like men's pants, or a combination of both my entire life! This is the first pair of ski pants I've owned that looks cute like a woman's pair and is ACTUALLY long enough! I got the medium (33 inseam) and weigh around 138 pounds. They're a little loose but I like them that way so I can layer underneath. The waist is adjustable, too. They seem warm and to be well made. I haven't tried them in the snow yet, so I'll update then. If you're tall like me, just buy them!!! I can't believe they're purple, too! Cute snow pants for tall girls in a color other than black? I'm not kidding!

I am 4'11, 110 lbs, with pretty short legs and torso. I expected that an x-small would fit me perfectly but I ordered a size small in these pants because I wanted to be able to have room under to layer a bit. They just came and the waist come way up above my bellybutton. The hips are kinda large along with the waist. A belt seems to be holding it in place right now. I think I'm going to exchange for the extra small. Besides the fit I actually like the pants. They're very thick and warm and the 4 pockets are great (you know us girls aren't used to good sized pockets on jeans -__-). I really like these pants and I'm excited to use them for mid-January Catskill weather!I'll update this review on their performance then.UPDATE: I returned the small and got an x-small instead. This was a great idea for me because the waist fits a lot snugger, they're shorter, and the hips fir perfect. Although it's a smaller and more perfect fit, I still had no problems layering underneath. I was able to wear thermal leggings and thin sweatpants under. In terms of quality, these are absolutely great. I was outside for several hours at a time in teens weather and snow. With my layering, I was never cold; actually, I started sweating a bit with all the moving around. The pockets are all a great size. They're easily washable. My only slight issue was that the snaps in the front undid themselves very easily; and once they did, so did the zipper. I had to wear a belt because anytime I sat down or bent over the snaps popped right open. But it wasn't a huge deal because I had so many layers on top that my sweaters held the pants up anyway. Overall, I'm really really happy with my purchase. This is great quality for a great price and it's great to know I got these for $30 and change while other paid $60-$80 for the same quality with other brands. I can't wait to have a chance to use them again and I HIGHLY recommend these for anyone looking for a warm, waterproof, comfortable pair of snow pants.

Fitting a little bigger than anticipated on hip area. Waist was true to size and does have velcro straps for adjusting for size, breathable material, comfortable and warm, waist adjustable for non petite woman. When tried on noticed some of the buttons were poorly sewn. Returned this product right away.

Got to wear it this past weekend for snow play. It kept me dry. Fabric was still dry after sitting in the snow.As for fit, I’m 5’3 1/2 tall and weigh about 114 lbs. it is a bit snug at the waist, but I was wearing jeans underneath, so it fit perfectly.

The legs look a bit baggy on my slim legs bug these seem warm. They are a pretty straight cut, not big bell bottoms or curved thigh.The high waist fits comfortably on me at 5’8” and 125 lbs the sz 8-10 is perfect. The lux waist is snaps and this waist is hooks and velcro. I might remove the velcro because it snags knit gloves.Even the leg length seems good which isn’t something you hear from me very often. I purchased a lux brand of ski pants and the gaiter inside that one is longer (better) but on every other issue this pair is better! The zippered pockets have a small but nice zipper flap and the lux ones don’t. These have two usefully deep cargo pant pockets with velcro flaps; the lux ones don’t!These feel heavier which may be an issue to some but are cozy to me. The knees feel fine. The protective patch and the ankles offers an extra layer of protection from crampons or snowshoes.With the adjustable waist I can fit pants under or on a warmer day maybe wear thin leggings under them and not worry about fit. Just cinch the waist. It’s cold out (and therefore inside too here in the mountains) and these are warm and comfortable! No waist issues or other discomfort.I will add to the review once these get out to snow test. So far, for the money, this pair seems excellent.

I really want to love these, and I do but mostly don't. They are definitely warm and waterproof. I recently wore them in Colorado for snowmobiling and dog sledding. I had on thermal leggings underneath. I'm 5 foot tall and the 27-inch inseam was perfect. I was not walking on my pants all day long. These were very wide legged though. I did order them too big and that was my fault. I just wasn't sure with underclothes on. These are very short waisted. Huge gap in the back. They also fit me quite bulky. The very first time I put them on, one of the buttons broke clear off. The pants were far from being tight, so it wasn't that at all. I was just trying to button them, and it just came right off. Luckily there are 2 buttons so at least they still stayed on. I did like having the cargo pockets. These did serve their purpose for the day, but I think I'll shop around for my next adventure.

Arctix brand is VERY well made. Excellent seam work and hardware, material and design. Very warm, without making me sweat. Wash easily by hand or machine. Purchase a total of 3 pairs, then spent money on another brand and regretted it.
