Overall
Overall it is a decent pant. It matches great with the down jacket I have, and does the trick. The fit is good, though I don't think the lines would be conducive to wearing some super tight ones. However, if you're looking to thug it out and get mad baggy, this is your pant!
Performance
The pants are lightly insulated, so you're going to need some long underwear and maybe something thicker if its really cold. There can be just a touch of wind leaking through the leg vents, so on a windy day your nuts can get a touch breezy.
I've only had them in the rain once, as I only pair these pants with the matching down jacket. So I don't have a proper comment on waterproofness. The day I had them in the rain it was pretty light, but they did keep me dry.
Design
Great pocket setup. Nice and big and plentiful, which is always key with a pair of pants. The leg zips are huge, so if you're wearing this when its too warm you can really open them up and cool off.
The addition of zips at the bottom of the pants is key for style over your boots. It just helps with the baggy look.
Fit
When I asked for these pants I said I wanted "Olenick Size" and they sent me the XXL version. Now as a baggy pant, they fit great. Tonnes of room everywhere and you can wear a normal pair of pants underneath and still have room leftover. This is great for layering.
Once again, it doesn't have the most exciting cut, but the shape of the pants does the trick when you're going deep on the baggy.
Durability
So far so good! I've been on it for about half a season now, and no rips, tears or busted zippers. As long as you roll your pants up when you walk around, they'll stay in good condition. With the bagginess you can get the back of them pretty ripped up in a hurry if you're not careful!
