Review on Arctix Youth Pants Reinforced X Large Apparel & Accessories Baby Girls and Clothing by Richard Counts

I have bought at least seven ski pants or overalls for my adolescent boy since he first hit the slopes at age three. The boy has grown up so fast. His ski pants or overalls only lasted a year or two. These were Columbia, North Face and other well-known brands. Not knowing much about the Arctix brand (at first I thought it was Arc'teryx), I wasn't sure at first. However, the pants were so cheap that I would have tried it. It was absolutely amazing. The outer fabric appears to be of good quality, reasonably durable and waterproof. The pants also have everything I expect from quality ski pants: zip pockets, lift pass ring, boot gaiters and reinforced seat, knee, ankle, chafing and hem protection. Although the insulation isn't very good, we didn't have a problem when we skied at Mont Tremblant where we had strong winds and around 15 degrees at the top. It was way better than the cheap ski pants (outdoor gear, I'm sure their high quality ones will be just as good as the rest) I bought at the ski resort when I didn't bring my ski pants. By the way, the pants (dark grey) were only $17 when I bought them. If they cost more than $30 I would buy Columbia Kids' Bugaboo ski pants. They are much better isolated.
