ArctixWomen's Sarah Fleece-Lined Softshell Pants

Straight figured girls rejoice! Update: A year later...
Thoughts on size/fit:I literally read hundreds of reviews (obsessed, I know) to find the best fit for my straight figure. According to the size chart for these snow pants I would need an XL in the waist and a M in the hip. I decided to order the L and hope for the best. Well, they fit great! They are slightly big, but I can easily wear a belt and can also fit leggings under them on especially cold days. They don't cut into my stomach when bending down which would be so uncomfortable when putting on my snowshoes or XC skis or picking up after my dogs.Thoughts on the actual snowpants:First of all, I'm a black, gray, neutral kind of gal, when it comes to clothing. I decided to order the plum pants and am so pleased! Cute color and goes well with my plain, dark jackets. The pants themselves feel stretchy and comfy. I got them today, immediately put them on and took my dogs for a walk in about 30 degree temperatures for about 30 minutes. The snow that gathered at the bottom of the pants skimmed off and didn't soak in at all. The pockets are fleeced lined and deep. I felt warm and also stylish compared to the big, bulky, snow pants I wore in the past. Since I just received these, I can't comment on durability.I highly recommend these if your shape is more straight than hourglass.Update: I have worn these snow pants for one full winter and they have held up well. I mostly walk in them, so nothing too strenuous. For size reference: I am 5'6" tall and weigh 165 or so. I bought the large size and they fit nicely with room for layering. I still recommend them!

Great Pants- Tight Waste
I really love the pants other than the waste is very tight. I have been losing weight so I’m not really worried about it. They fit great everywhere else. The length is perfect. The pockets are very roomy. I am 5’7 and weigh 160.

Soft but on the Snug Side
These are soft & warm but a bit too snug ~ I’m 5’5ft 120lbs. Waist 28 & hips 38, but it’s the thigh part that feels very snug. I hope with the fleece lining will be warm enough since I don’t feel comfortable adding a baselayer underneath.

Warm and Can Pass for Work Pants
I'm one of those people who are annoyingly cold all the time. I bought these to wear into the office. Maybe a little extreme, but I've tried everything else. I liked the look as they are not obviously the snow pants we all think of when we hear the term "snow pants." I ordered my regular size due to numerous reviews who said these were roomy enough to fit other pants on underneath. Maybe that is the truth for a body type that isn't mine. They are big in the legs, but pretty uncomfortably tight in the waist. I was able to button them so there's that. Going up a size seems like they will be comically large in the legs so I will persevere... or lose weight. One of the two. A little elastic in the waist would have made the world of a difference.Sizing aside, they are soft, comfortable, and my legs have been warm all day. I won't get to test them in the snow because it doesn't do that where I live. Maybe one day.

Best cold weather pants I own!
I needed a pair of pants that would work for cold, rainy hikes and wouldn’t be super heavy. First of all, the sizing on Arctix can be a little funny. My waist is 27, hips 35, inseam 29-30. The small short fits me well with some room in the waist area and enough room to put a pair of fleece leggings underneath, if needed. These aren’t adjustable like the Arctix snow pants but have belt loops- so a basic canvas belt would work well. I thought I would have to have a belt, but they stayed up fine without me having to tug at them. I think the xs short would work as well, but I like them a little looser. Second, warmth and waterproof: I’ve worn them in 30 degree rainy weather and stayed warm and dry without an extra layer. These have a super soft flannel layer that is just cuddly. They don’t make the noise that the Arctix ski pants do when you walk, and they, certainly, aren’t as thick. Worn in the rain, the water just beads up and doesn’t soak in. This could be different if you are super soaked, but they worked well for me. They have gators with elastic that can cover your boots to avoid any splashing or snow. I got the black and all of the Arctix logos were also in black. The hand pockets are on each side and are big enough for my phone. If it’s cold enough, I may just wear them to work. They can be dressed up a little with the right top or sweater. I hope this review helps someone. I really love these.

Chic and warm
I don't leave reviews often, but these ski pants really surprised me. Bought a large size in different Arctix snow pants and they were stiff, tight and shapeless. These though are shaped perfectly for a curved woman with a waist and a generous bottom, usually wearing a 8-10 depending on how much spandex in the fabric. Moreover, they kept me warm on the ski lift at 15 F, with only one more brushed fleece pant underneath. Lastly, despite several falls and tumbles on the slopes and even sliding on my behind half of a slope full of moguls, these pants simply did not get wet at all, and the seams held all my struggles beautifully. Just loved them!

Love !
Super flattering fit, stretchy and soft, very comfortable to wear and move around in. They fit a little big in the waist but that allows for better movement. Love that they come in the petite length and they are warm! Absolutely perfect!!
