I was pretty excited to buy these pants and the rain jacket. They are light, flexible and I thought durable. They worked well for 1 rainy season, however, they have completely failed me at the begining of the second year. I work in the forests of Washington State and spend a lot of time in rain gear. These pants have been very durable and kept me dry. The double panel fronts are great and my legs have remained dry. The problem I have is that the coated fabric in the crotch has cracked and lets water in and I get very wet. In the end it was walking, not brush that killed these pants.

Good:
- Comfortable
- Waterproof
- Easy to slip on

Bad: Two problems i had with these pants. First, there not as breathable as i hoped. I work indoors with cold air constantly being blown on me and even with the cool temperatures my legs were getting sweaty (after only 30 mins of use!), and i wasn't running around either. The other less serious problem is that these pants run big. I usually wear a 36x32 Size pants, but when i got the large they were a bit long and still pretty baggy.

It's to bad because i really wanted to like these pants, i can't stand coming home with soaking wet pants, but this just isn't made for indoors. This product would be good for people who work outdoors and stand around in the cold, they will keep you warm, just don't run around in them.

I purchased these for my best guy-he is working outside this winter-even though our winter here in NY has been kinda mild so to speak-it has been wet. He really loves these for work-he says best I could have gotten. I checked other reviews before purchase and glad I did for sizing. A good idea to check them if you are going to purchase. Also, even though it said pants might not ship right away [not in stock] they were shipped within 9 days.

I bought this raingear for a co-worker and he loves them. He can't stop raving about how well they move and how light weight but strong they are. They work really well for him. I will be buying a set for myself when my raingear finally fails.

kept me warm and dry in the snow.also very comfortable on the waist as well (and im a heavyset dude too).
the texture of the pants is kinda shiny and slick, and a little bizzare if you wear them out to dinner after playing in the snow. so bring a back up pair of slacks, ok?
