What customers say:
The Cresta Ultralight 150 Pants are a well-received base layer product, praised for being soft, comfortable, and warm without being bulky. The merino wool fabric is noted for being non-itchy and breathable. Customers appreciate the slim, flattering fit and the wide, stay-up waistband. However, some customers have reported quality issues, such as the fabric shredding or developing holes after limited use and washing. A small subset of reviewers also mentioned the pants had a tendency to twist or become off-center during wear.

Warmth!
I was so grateful having this light, yet very warm layer under my jeans while shoveling snow this winter. I even found myself using it under my nightgown on very cold nights.
