Best Ski ... EVER!
I'm 6' tall, 155lbs, usually wear a 10T in Athleta and these fit perfectly. I have never had ski ... were LONG! The low rise fit is awesome too - it's the most comfortable for me, with such a long waist/torso. I actually love the denim look, as jeans are my favorite type of ... My husband even said I could wear these out to dinner or a club! Ha...probably not, but at least I could do errands on way home from the mountain and not feel weird being in traditional ski ... LOVE them so much - and they really flatter my rear end - unlike most bulky ski ... Let it snow!
Best ski ... I''ve ever had.
I received these ... Christmas but just barely used them for the first time yesterday. I love these ... Yesterday in Utah we had the wettest snow I have ever skied in. My leather gloves were soaked, my coat was wet and water poured off my helmet when I stopped for lunch, but these ... kept my bottom half warm and dry. The water just beads up and rolls off. They are amazing and so cute too! They were totally worth the money. I had some sizing issues: the waist was a little snug on the size 10 but fit great everywhere else, and the 12 is fine in the waist, but now kind of baggy everywhere else, especially at the knees. After yesterday, though, I am so glad I have them!
Warm and Fashionable
I bought my 2nd pair this year - just to have an extra pair handy. The price is high, however, the quality reflects the price. I have spent hours outside in the snow - making snow angels, skiing, watching my daughter during her ski lessons and more. The middle of snow blizzards in the depth of thigh deep snow with gusting winds of snow blowing at me - I stayed warm and dry. I was able to play with my children without wanting desperately to go back inside due to feeling uncomfortable. I am 5 ' 8 1/2" tall and wear a regular size 8 pants. I always need to take in the waist - that's just my body type. I prefer to have more room in the legs and bottom area as I don't like to feel like a sausage stuffed in casing. However, the pants are not so roomy that they would chafe my legs, by any means. They have a soft, fleece like lining that feels so wonderfully comfortable...even with my sensitive, winter skin. I receive compliments and questions as to where I found my snow pants. I truly like the pockets too. Everything is thought through by the creators of this snow pant. Please don't change them!! Please don't ever discontinue them either! The jean look rocks! Many thanks, Athleta! I finally found a snow pant that I look forward to wearing!
pretty perfect winter jean
I have been wanting these denim snow ... since last year. When I got the email for the discount, I had to splurge. I tried them on and they fit me perfect. I'm usually a 6p in slacks and b/t 28-29 in jeans. I have thick athletic legs. The length is perfect for my boots and everything else about them looks great! I can't wait to wear them. If you want them and you see another sale email, get it while you can.
Powder Jean is perfect for tall skiers
I am 6' tall and about 180lbs post baby. I ordered a 12 Tall in the Powder Jean and they fit me perfectly... I'd say that they are mid rise (almost to belly button) and bootcut. They fit in the waist perfectly now and have velcro cinch tabs inside the waistband so that when I lose the rest of my baby weight hopefully they'll still fit. 35" inseam.... AWESOME and impossible to find. No snow is going to get down my backside with a snap and double tab closure. Fleeced liner so no base layer for spring skiing will still be comfortable. Venting, dark denim finish, all the length I need, the perfect ski pant!!!
Awesome Snow Jean
These jeans are fantastic. Fit is perfect, the fabric high quality, and the technology of the jean is perfect for ski weather, walking in the mountains during winter months where I live, and for skiing. I tried to get this jean last year and missed it so ordered early this year and love love love!!! I had purchased another high end brand of "ski jean" that look like a denim but are slick warm up type snow/ski pant at three times the price. These are so much better in appearance, style and comfort. You will love these jeans. The quality is quite special.
Amazing!
I LOVE these ... We just had epic snow this past weekend and I used them for the first time. Very comfortable, perfect length (I am 5'7 with long legs - got the regular length). Held up amazing on the slopes in deep powder. You have to get these ...
Great addition to my ski gear!
Wanted these great ski ... last year 'cause they looked cool, missed out and ordered early this time around. Now I know they will do more than just look like great jeans...While I haven't tested on the mountain yet (come on, Winter!) I did try them on with my jacket, long underwear, and ski boots and did some simulated "shredding" in my living room to see how they moved and feel they performed well. The size 6 fit is perfect for my 5"6", 138lb average size frame, and still allows a skin layer underneath without looking or feeling too tight. (I ordered a size 8 as well but returned them - far too large for me). The zippered cuffs and internal gator fit snug to my ski boot, but still allow good motion. Lower front leg pockets will come in handy for stashing cash and possibly a snack. The indigo dye did slightly blue my hands, so I just soaked them in cold water, air dried, and then spray treated with additional waterproofing (we have 'wet' snow here so this is customary at the start of the season) and the bluing is gone. My boyfriend likes the way they make my butt look...always good as I leave him in the dust on the hill! I'd highly recommend these high quality ski ... -- made in Switzerland where they KNOW skiing.
Love the pants, less impressed with quality and customer service
I've snowboarded for 13 years with pants that are too short (34" inseam without boots on), so I was thrilled when I saw Athleta had tall snow pants. On the expensive side, so I held off for a few years, but finally gave in when they were 20% off. They run a little big, but the smallest in Talls is 4, so if you're a beanpole like me, get a belt! The pants were great for the two days I got to use them. They were warm when needed, and the vents were perfect. Stayed dry as well and looked cute to boot. Hubby commented that my fly was open. When I looked down, sure enough you could see my long underwear! But the zipper was closed. The stitching that was supposed to hold the zipper on was completely missing. I thought about fixing it myself, but but was worried about ruining the technical fabric and also thought that for $300, they should be replaced. I called to replace them and was told they were out of 4Ts, but that I could return them for a refund and then reorder when they got more in, probably in the next week or so, and they would honor the discount. Not ideal, but OK. So I sent them back. When I called today to find out the status of the pants, I was told they weren't getting any more in this season, so I am just out of luck. If I had known that before I returned my defective pants, I would have thought harder about fixing them myself. The Burton tall pants aren't as cute, but I'll be buying a pair of those instead.
So Bummed
I ordered these jeans after 2 years of longing for them. Got them on 20% off Black Friday Sale. First ordered an 8 regular, since I go between 6 anbd 8. They were large, as many have said, so I sent them back to exchange for a 6. Unfortunately, they were out of 6 regulars, so I told them to send the 6 Tall, as I have ordered tall in Athleta ... has been fine. I am fairly long legged. But when I got them, the waist was fine, but the inseam on the right leg came up so high it was not only uncomfortable, but was literally digging into the for lack of a nicer word..crotch area. I have read that on some of the other posts. I called hoping there may have been a return of a 6 regular, but there weren't any, and the price is too high to not have exactly what I need, so unfortunately, they are going back and I won't get my cute snow jeans. I hope the makers read this and address the inseam issues for next season.
Not recommended
These ... stretch and although there is a velcro adjustment in the waist it is not sufficient. Half way through the season I had to buy a belt (which I never usually wear). They are also not windproof and not waterproof. I had to wear the heaviest long johns even on moderately cold day to combat the wind. During a week of western powder skiing These ... were soaked through by mid day. Snow sticks to them and then melts when you sit down. They are cool (why I bought them) and I have gotten lots of comments but i am returning them. If you ski in a warmer climate with no powder, go for it, they are great looking and fitting before they start to stretch.
