Reviews
Perfect pants
"These are so warm and so well designed. There are other brands with similar soft shell in front, nylon in back but these are better: POCKETS, Longer leg zipper (fit with xc ski boots), normal waist (not digging in at hip or low riding), and very warm. In fact, too warm to wear inside for long if there's heat."

Improvisation
"I am wearing them as I write this review. I am walking the Northern Camino across Spain. I had to cut 2 inches off the legs to make it work for me. You were out of stock for men So I improvised on the women’s version to meet my needs. And they are doing very well. 2 inches"

No more shivering
"I coach girls lacrosse and our practices are often rainy and cold. These pants have become a game changer due to their thickness and warmth. Cannot recommend these enough - particularly for any event where you may be standing outside for an extended period of time! May need to get a second pair because I wear these ones so often!"

Best Wind Pants!
"I live in North Dakota, and these pants are amazing! I wear these running errands around town on frigid days, working outside, and running, from about 35 above to -10 with wind (with a baselayer). I believe I have 5 pairs, as they're the only gear I've found that really cuts the wind and cold, yet is movable and breathable. The pockets are full pockets with slim zippers. The waistband is wider and not just an elastic band, super comfy, and has a nice drawstring. The zippered legs were awesome when I broke my low leg. . . they slid right over the wrapped splint. I'm 5'6, 138 lbs, and the medium fits nicely with room to layer. I hope Craft never discontinues these pants. They're the best!"

Love these! Loose without being baggy.
"Love these! Comfortable and practical. Loose without being baggy. Great when it’s just a bit too chilly for shorts for running/hiking/walking or I want to just wear around."

Comfortable, true to size, nicely loose.
"I haven’t had a chance to wear these for Nordic yet, but they’re super comfortable, seem to be true to size and just the right amount of loose. They lost one star because I had to do a bit of surgery on the inside left zipper. Where it extended into the seam (not anywhere that shows), it irritated my leg. I was a little worried I may cut a hole in the pants as I cut away at the scratchy zipper teeth, but it all ended up fine. Hopefully a one off."

Nice cycling pants!
"I can wear these with or without bike shorts underneath depending on my needs. Very comfortable. They fit well and block the wind and cold beautifully. Yesterday I rode in 48 degree temperature in total comfort."

Pefect weight
"Desperately needs side pockets!"

Good pant, but runs large
"I was excited to try these, but they were much larger than I anticipated from the size chart, ballooning out below the waist and quite baggy in the leg. The fabric seems great, especially liked the pocket lining fabric and size of the pockets/opening. Just didn't work for me size wise so I gave them to a friend."

Winter workout must have
"These pants were exactly what I was looking for. They fit perfectly, have a warm fleece lining and are windproof. I wore them yesterday when the temps were around 22F and we had a very gusty wind 30-40 mph. I wore them over my winter running pants and my quads stayed warm for the whole workout (about an hour outside)."
