Review on πŸ‘¨ Arctix Youth XL Regular Reinforced Safety Products and PPE for Occupational Health by Eric Smithlin

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good suggestion for the occasional skier, order two sizes and return the one that doesn't fit.

I just received it so my review is not on function only on form/appearance. I will update my review after using it. I knew from other reviews that they vary in size. I ordered an XL to be on the safe side. I'm 5'7", 130-135 pounds, long legs, medium butt, wide waist. I usually wear pants in size 4 (Target), 6 (American Eagle) or 28/29 (H&M) or leggings in medium. The crotch is very low when I put the pants on where I usually wear pants. Pulling them all the way up the length is still just right, but the velcro straps just don't have enough velcro to tighten them up. being tight (my waist is less high; when I pulled it up so the crotch wasn't low, the waist reached where the high-waist jeans sit.) The construction seems solid, the color is very nice. I ordered a size L to see if they fit better and if they would return the pair that didn't fit best. I will update my review after determining which pair is best. I read countless reviews before ordering them and ultimately decided that for the price they were worth buying as more expensive winter pants had similar complaints. I am based in Florida and will only use them annually for ski trips. If you find yourself in a similar situation, this seems like the best choice. Just order two sizes and return the size that doesn't fit. :)

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled
