Description of Burton AK 2L Cyclic Pant - Men's: |
|
The storms just keep rollin’ in. As long as you have the Burton Men's AK 2L Cyclic Pant, and your board tuned, you got nothin’ to worry about. These snowboard pants feature Gore-Tex Performance Shell material with Gore-Seam Tape that’s guaranteed to keep you dry, even in the harshest conditions. When the last front moves through, leaving you a few feet of powder and blue skies, unzip the Cyclic Pant's inner thigh vents when you need to drop some heat. A single cargo pocket with a water-resistant zipper stashes your essentials, Burton’s Sig Fit keeps things baggy without going overboard, and Leg Lift prevent the cuffs from dragging in the mud when you're wearing street shoes. - Fall 2008.
Bottom Line: Gore-Tex shell + baggy fit = ahh yeah.

| Keeps you dry, cheap outer shell 01-13-09 |
ChrisK (5):  |
| I have had no problems with the function of these pants. They keep me very dry. You can't beat Gore-Tex as a waterproofing layer and I won't buy snowboard pants without it anymore (or an equivalent waterproofing system like e-Vent). The Mediums fit me perfectly with just enough sag (5'10", 32" waist). I've never had to worry about getting wet in these pants.
However, I find the outer material to be rather thin and cheap. This pant is the lowest line of the AK line and it shows. I've have 17 days on these pants this year and they're starting to show lots of wear already. The side pockets are showing some fraying including holes in the shell material. I'm not even sure how the fraying is occurring. It could be from either rubbing up against branches when I ride or when I walk with the board on my side. Either way, I'm surprised to see the material fraying this much already. I also see it in the pant leg cuffs, especially in the area where you sometimes rest the edge of the board when sitting on the lift. Some wear is to be expected here, but I'm seeing a lot of it already.
Additionally, if you get cold easily and don't like to wear lots of layers, then stay away from these pants. These are basically a shell and have no insulation. I expected this and prefer layers so I have not any issues with warmth.
I'll probably use these through the end of the year (if they last that long) then move on and find a better brand with a tougher material. I really wish someone would create some tough, light and waterproof snowboard pants with a bit of style. |

| lightweight, but lacking 04-23-09 |

| I've been wearing the Burton AK products for about 10 years, but this is the first 2L product that I've purchased. Unlike some of the other reviewers, I'm a skier, and wear mostly snowboard clothing because of the style and fit of the clothing. I ski between 50-70 days a season, and I ski mostly on the west coast in the Sierras where the temperatures are more temperate. I found the 2L Cyclic Pants to be decent for relatively warmer days on the mountain or in the backcountry, but because it is more of a "value" product, it lacks the superior construction of the Burton 3L products, and it's only benefit over the 3L products is its lighter weight. It will keep you dry for sure, but if you ski in a colder temperature environment, or are prone to having cold legs, I would recommend you purchase a different pair of pants. The Burton 3L products are great, but quite pricey, so you'll have to decide for yourself if Burton can meet your requirements. |
