The base layer pants are more comfertable than regular thermal pants, they don't roll up or bind, but they are not as warm as regular thermals.

it took my son 10 minutes to get these on over the feet and ankles. The elastic doesn't stretch hardly at all. His shoe size is 5 and his feet were bright red after pulling these on. It's a good idea, but doesn't work out too well. The rest fit well and loved them, but shouldn't be painful to put on!! Had to return them, I don't know how they would fit anyone with feet bigger than a toddler.

From the waist to just above the ankles is a great fit. The drawstring suprisingly does not take away from the comfort and the waist band is very soft. The bad, the ankles are so small and tight that it is difficult to get your foot in and out of the pants. Once the pants are on it does not detract from the fit, but you have to spend some time trying to get them on and off. Other than that I would definitely recommend

Bought a medium and a large because my waist size is in between the listed sizes for M & L. The medium fit nicely: snug and warm. They were up over my ankles in length, way too short. The Large fit nicely, a lot looser but just as short. The ankle rubber was tricky to get over or off the foot and ankle, could use a 5 or 6 inch zipper. Even with the great value, they were not worth keeping since they were so short! (The L did not seem any longer than the M.)

We wear these tights when cycling and they work well. They are lightweight but do keep your legs warm and we like the rubber around the ankles - it keeps the cold wind from coming up the legs. We also like the drawstring waist.

All in all, an excellent winter tight for cycling and the price is fantastic when compared to bike tights!

The elastic at the ankle is very narrow. It extremely hard to slip it on without ripping the seam at the ankle.

Not a bad item for the price. The only complaint is the foot/leg opening. Extremely tight! Not much give. Once on though, this item fits fine.

When making an online purchase without seeing and handling the product in person, you never really know what you are going to get. I was so happy that these compression pants turned out to be such high quality. The finish and waistband are good enough to be able to wear them as running pants. They are also a top-notch base layer. they have rubber-like material at the ankles to hold them down to the socks or ankles, so they stay in place nicely. They keep you warm and still breathe and help wick away the sweat.

This product is perfect for those of us in the northern states who love to be outside, or have to be outside in the elements. It is used like long underwear but a million times warmer!
