I love these! They are so warm, the pockets are perfect size & placed.
This is the 2nd pair I purchased. This time I bought my street size (6) which is a small in these thermal pants. I returned one because based on some reviews I sized up. Those were a large & I exchanged for a medium and were still baggy in the legs and about a pull of the waist of 1.5-2”. I ordered these in the small and perfect for my body type. I am 5’4” and weigh 133-135. I have slim legs, flat backside, and very little tummy. I do have what I call a wide or thick waist so the elastic in the back saves any issues in that area. I do tuck them in my winter boots as I agree with others the legs are too narrow to fit over a bulky boot. That doesn’t bother me though. These are well constructed in my opinion. I wore the medium with a fleece lined tight when it was -5 but no wind. I was actually too warm but also had on a very warm long jacket. My plans are to wear in late fall and winter to clean up the yard and scoop snow off my deck.
The fabric is smooth and the design reminds me of parachute pants. Although it's winter here now, I look forward to wearing them in the sun where they provide 50 SPF. For now, I easily layer them with a warm base layer. Love 'em!
I have not worn them yet but think they will keep me warm. They are a thick material and lined well. The lining material seems comfortable and they look good. I am 5'4, 132lbs and bought a medium. The length is just right and like that there are pockets. Do be aware they are a VERY snug fit and may take some getting used to (or stretching when from wearing them). And for the super snug fit, I am giving it 4 stars.
