Overall, I'm happy with these pants. I bought them for cross-country skiing. I wore them on a sunny day about 32 degrees with a thermal base layer underneath and I was too hot at a moderately aerobic pace. I think these pants would have been perfect without the thermals.I'm 5'4", 135 lbs, athletic build, so I bought the size medium to make sure they wouldn't be too tight. The fit is very comfortable, just roomy enough without being baggy. The rise is a little higher than I would normally wear and the waistband is very thick.The pants have a very durable feel to them and the weave is tight enough to offer some protection from the wind but they are still super stretchy and don't bind anywhere during exercise.If I had to list any cons, I would say that the fit is not very flattering and I wouldn't wear these anywhere except for skiing. For the price, I would like to be able to wear them more than a few times a year, but on the other hand they'll last forever!
