BenBoyWomen's Outdoor Waterproof Windproof Fleece Slim Cargo Snow Ski Hiking Pants

For reference - I'm 5'6, 170lb athletic build F (with a bit of middle age fluff) and purchased size Large, Black pants.I purchased these in the fall, and its finally cold and blustery here in the midwest US. Wore them this morning to play with my pup in 12 degree windchill, with snow and wind coming down. They performed splendidly!I wore a high quality base layer underneath these Benboy pants, and they fit well with room to move. They are comfortable, lightweight, flexible, and very functional. The waistband has elastic gathering in strategic places that allows for give, but also remains flattering since it's not a full elastic waist. The pockets have ample room and you can carry several things if needed. I really REALLY love the textured/rugged knee area - its not so stiff to be bulky, but its rugged enough to deal with a jumping dog and ice and crud on the ground.The bottom of the pants have ample room for boots to be worn underneath, but because the pants are lightweight and flexible, you could tuck them into boots as well.They performed amazingly against the cold, windy, blustery 12F temps for 2 hours of pup time. They were completely windproof, stayed dry, staved off several puppy attacks :) and with a slight brushing off, they looked like they just came out of the package.I cannot say enough for these pants for light to moderate outdoor winter activity. I am very pleased with them and will be ordering additional pairs. The pricepoint of these pants is out of this world. I'd expect to spend 4x as much for this quality!***Came back to edit this review after wearing these pants non-stop through winter storm Elliot (December 2022). I had to take my 6 month old puppy out in -40f with 30-50 mph winds, several times a day and night. With a high quality base layer and the baleaf fleece lined tights (also sold on anazon) under these, they were rock solid. Completely wind and cold proof. If you think your should buy a pair of these, the answer is a resounding YES!! I have 2 pr and will but a few more in other colors. At this price point, there is nothing that comes close! Thanks again for such a great product!!!

I bought these for a trip to Nepal for hiking in the Himalayas and they did not disappoint! They’re comfy, warm, stylish, and held up great in 10+ miles long hiking days. We luckily didn’t encounter too much snow/rain, just a light drizzle, but they kept me warm and dry.I went with size L tall as I’m a leggy 5’7” and the length was great. Prob could have gone with a M though for waist and bagginess (for reference I’m about 155lbs), but I wore long underwear every day and my was worried with a M it would be too tight (I don’t think so).Overall these were with the money for sure!

I bought these for an upcoming trip to Iceland. Lots of people in these reviews used them for the same purpose so I’m hoping they serve me just as well! The quality of these pants is really good, the material feels heavy duty without being bulky. The fleece lining is pretty thin, which I like because I don’t want to get overly warm (will be hiking/walking/horseback riding/etc), but if you’re looking for something with a very thick/fluffy lining these are not it. Iffy on whether these will actually be waterproof, but they are definitely better than water resistant options and aren’t as bulky as ski pants.The only thing I don’t love is the sizing. I ordered a medium short (my normal size) and they fit perfectly everywhere except for the back seam; it pulls a bit when squatting down or sitting. Otherwise the length, waist, legs all fit so well. I ordered a large short to try and that was huge yet still had that pull in the back seam. Sticking with the mediums because I think they are still very comfortable and will work for what I need them for. I would stick with your normal sizing (I am a 5’5” 140lb curvy woman, so I think that’s why the hip measurement was a bit snug for me).

These are awesome! Wore them on an off road trip that got rained out, cold and muddy. These bad boys kept me dry and warm. I did have a pair of fleece leggings under just like I would do with a pair of snowboarding pants. The material is super nice though and comfy.I also wore them hiking and the reinforced knees were stretchy so the pants didn’t limit my ability to climb.Highly recommend.

VERY happy with these! Needed something warm yet comfortable for daily winter hikes with my pooch and for winter chores - shoveling, snowblowing.. We live in upstate NY, Catskill mountains, and winters can be super cold and damp. Regular ski pants are too bulky and stiff IMHO. These are well made, sturdy fabric yet flexible and move with you in all the right places. They run true to size chart: I'm usually a small/petite length and got a Medium Short so I could layer - I have room for heavy leggings or cotton skinny jeans. A small would have probably been fine, I may order another in small for spring/fall. For reference, I'm 5'3, 135lbs, curvy/athletic build. I did not think them high-waisted or short-waisted, pretty much "normal", and the length is perfect and as per the size guide. It's not easy to find pants that aren't made for 6' + women and the length was perfect to tuck in my snow boots or cuff with my hikers without being bulky or having to hem. As other reviewers mentioned, it comes with a belt (which is awful - I couldn't even unbuckle it) and unnecessary, (they should bypass the belt and lower the price!) in fact, the belt was a stark contrast to the quality of the pants. Just buy the pants and toss the belt. The waistband is flexible and I really like the clip closure, easy to maneuver even with gloves on. And the detailing below the waist is flattering - they are stylish enough for a run to town without looking like the kid from A Christmas Story :) It's been very rainy, wet and snowy this winter and they certainly kept the damp chill out, and did not feel damp or wet after a long hike or shoveling. And I love the fabric stays super clean and doesn't pick up lint or pet hair! Kept me warm and comfortable! A solid purchase.
