Great Pants, a little short
Pants are very cool, great material inside and out and very comfortable. The one drawback for me is that they are short. I am 6-1 with a waist of 32". These pants fit perfectly as far as the waist and bagginess but are definitely too short in length. The large is a little baggier but still fits alright and the length is much better. Venting is very nice and there are enough pockets to store your belongings but not to many. Overall a very great pant made for a little shorter stouter person than me.

Heavy material, durable, runs large for size
Very waterproof but need to take care of the DWR. Kind of warm for NV skiing, but the vents help to keep you at right temp. I'm a 34W, but the large size is way too large.

Worth Every Penny
I'm a little embarrassed to admit, but I stretched 15 years out of my old Burton pants, which is a testament to their products. The only difference this time around, is the fact that I'm ready to pull the trigger on a second pair immediately! Needless to say, Burton products are a dream and these pants are no exception.
The pants are plenty warm with a second layer underneath in sub 20 degree weather and with the multiple venting options, they also allow plenty of cooling opportunity when things heat up. You can count on staying dry with Gore-Tex construction and with a lifetime warranty, it adds up to a no-brainer. Just get em, the only thing left for me is to choose the color of my second pair:-)

Bombproof pants!
I got a chance to use these at Crystal mountain when it was 25 degrees at the base and 17 at the summit and they were perfect with a single medium weight layer underneath. The fleece lining in the seat and knees is a nice feature too. The fabric itself is nice and light as compared to other pants with a lessor waterproof rating but still feel rock solid. This pair of pants definitely lives up to the AK name!

Great Pants
I finally had a chance to use the pair I bought. I really like the fit. The fleece lining in the seat and knees makes them really warm. I've worn them on a fairly wet-snow day and stayed perfectly dry. I wore them on an 18 degree day (with 20 mph winds) and they were plenty warm enough with the proper layering underneath.

Sick Pants
Fit is loose and comfy. I haven't worn them yet but they seem to be able to keep you nice and warm on those stormy days. The pant to Jacket ZIP interface is perfect.

Very nice pants
I did a spring trip and they worked just fine. Breathed well and kept me nice and dry. The crossflow venting works like a charm. My friend gave me props for the camo print as well.
