Description of Betty Rides All-Mountain Siouxsie Pant - Women's:
Rock the slopes when you wear the Betty Rides Siouxsie Snowboard Pant with ultra slim fit. Durable shell fabric can handle your rockstar stage dive into a mosh pit of snow without getting torn and tattered. Stay warm in these insulated pants while you headbang down the entire mountain. The Siouxsie's 15K-rated waterproof fabric and has taped critical seams to keep you dry when you pass out on the slopes after a night of heavy partying. Betty brings rocker steeze to the slopes with exposed metal zippers and snaps on the extra long ghetto slits; not that you'd even notice these features, because rockstars don't try to look cool, they just are.
Bottom Line: You could call your band Betty and the Siouxsies.
So when I first tried on these pants, I was in love. They were super low-cut and hugged my legs just enough that they looked awesome on me but didn't feel too tight. But when I put my boots on (7.5s) the gaiters were on the verge of ripping to get over them...which was annoying, but not a deal breaker. Then I noticed they were a little short in the leg. I'm 5'3'' and bought mediums...and they still didn't hang down to the bottom of my boot. I was constantly pulling the bottoms down to keep them from riding up. Then after 20 days of riding in them, the groin seam just completely split open almost down to my knees while riding. THAT was the deal breaker. P.S. If you need pockets, don't buy these pants.
I already rated these a two after my first day of wearing them. But now I'm just mad.
Along with all the other stuff I listed in my first review...
The 2nd day wearing these the pocket I had my iphone in already has a huge hole in it.
And if you don't have a lowprofile boot or smaller than a size 9, have fun getting the gaiters over them... because you won't.
Also, if you're 5'8" or taller, these will be way too short.
Horribly disappointing.
