Rated 5 out of 5 by BluJ great warmth plus fit
Excellent fit and warmth in these frigid days. Great for snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, even dog walking. Comfortable, with style.

bbshop Perfect for Snowshoeing
I purchased these for snowshoeing after using my alpine ski pants several times and realizing that they were too bulky and hot for this sport.
They are thin, comfortable, water resistant (I fell in the snow, brushed them off and they did not get wet) and warm. It was in the 20's when I used them last and they were fine without any long underwear underneath. However, we have had sub-zero temps this week and if it's that cold I would recommend wearing an extra layer under them.
I feel they are true to size and the waist is comfortable, does not roll down while in motion. The long zippers in the back make it easy to get in and out of. The tapered leg zippered tight around the top of my boot, definitely keeps the snow from getting down into them.
Overall very happy with this purchase.

Rated 4 out of 5 by AnneInSoCal Great pants, but legs a little long
I'm just over 5'3" and the legs are a little long for me, but petite sizes are always too short in the rise. Otherwise, they are keeping me warm in frigid NYC with just silk long underwear. Very good quality, and not too bulky at all (except for the legs!).

Rated 4 out of 5 by sometimeskiier Cross-country pants
I tried on several pairs of pants recommended for cross-country skiing. These were among the least expensive and were the simplest, most comfortable and easy to wear. I didn't wear them in very cold temperatures, but the fabric is dense and you could easily wear a pair of long underwear underneath them.

These pants are amazing. I can out them on when I figure out my day includes getting outside - they're comfortable. When I get outside even the coldest days, still comfortable. I had been hunting for something comfortable for shoveling, taking kids out, the occasional sledding escapade. These are the real deal! Not terrible looking, not obvious "snow pants" or "ski pants". But I stay warm and dry short of falling in a puddle. Go, Bean!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Randorigirl Excellent winter sport pants
I bought these in January and have worn them while x-country skiing several times. They are warm and stretchy, but not tight like leggings. I love the side zip pockets. I am 5'5" and 130 lbs so I bought the regular small. I also tried and returned the petite smalls, because they were too short. These pants have a true waist, so I don't have to tug them up all the time like hip-style pants. Style-wise, they have a center seam that runs up the front of the leg, not my preference, but everything else about them is great. They wash well, and I even put them in the dryer once, and they stood up just fine. Highly recommended for an outdoor sport pant.

Rated 4 out of 5 by birdlady04330 Great Pants
I've had these pants for a year now and, just like last winter, find myself living in them on weekends. I use them for xc skiing, snowshoeing, skating and really anything outdoors. They work as advertised: they block the wind, yet breathe. I skied in them in sub-zero windchill for the last two weekends and was comfortable. I'm also comfortable when it's warmer and when I'm inside.
Why four stars instead of five? I wish the waistband was a little higher. I always feel like they need to be pulled up, but the rise won't go that far. They are dog hair and lint magnets if that matters to you. And they shrunk in the wash. Fortunately I shrunk too and can still wear them.

As others have said, these pants are worth the price. Regarding the fit: I'm 5.0 ft/125 lbs, and purchased the petite medium. The length seems perfect, and the fit is very comfortable. Excellent for xc skiing, shoveling or sledding in single-digit weather. Thanks, LLBean!

Rated 5 out of 5 by mswinston You get what you pay for
I have had these pants for 1 year now and I must write a review. I was not happy to spend close to $100 for these pants, so I tried a few others that were bulky and did not keep me warm. This winter I have worn these on numerous occasions while cross country skiing, snow shoeing, shoveling, etc.. I never get cold with these pants on and they are like wearing gym pants. So comfortable. Glad I made the investment. The Petite option is an added bonus. I am 5'2 and while they are a little long for me, they work out just fine. You won't be disappointed.
