Looking to buy some new snow pants, trying to decide between the virtika shell pants and the signature pants. I currently use a pair of Armada shell snow pants, so I'm not sure if the insulated pants will be too warm for central Vermont skiing. Interested in any feedback, let me know. +k for useful responses.

I have the signature and they are great. Very water-proof and they aren't too warm. I'm 6'2 and they are fitted but still a little bit baggy.

Thanks for the response, +k. Where are the vents placed, and how big are they? I couldn't find any pictures online.

The vents are on the inside thigh and are pretty long. I have them and have ridden them in 50F weather and didn't have a problem with overheating. Had the bib on too. Threw on a base layer and they kept me toasty in -30F. Never going back to shell pants again.

I got mine in today and there okay. I would no pay the 20ish dollars of the bat bat 90 is pretty nice. they advertise "taped seams" and mine looked like the pants cam out of surgery. This is of topic but I cot one of the shirts and the print is fading already. And the "super high quality cotton/polly" hoodie is basically a 15 dollar gildan but with a logo stamped on. But still I give em' props on the epic sale and how cheap you can get these pant for considering all their features. And fuck a free beanie and poster cant beatthat. ( gave me two posters:)
