These pants are a game-changer for my winter adventures. I used them for a multi-day backcountry trip, and they held up perfectly against wind and snow while still breathing incredibly well. Definitely the best men’s ski pants for backcountry I’ve owned.

I bought these for an upcoming climbing trip, and the fit is fantastic. The ankle zippers are a huge plus for getting over boots. They’re surprisingly durable too; I’ve already scraped them on a few rocks with no issues.
