Between on-piste afternoons and full-on powder mornings, the Marmot Women's Refuge Pants have you covered. These lightly insulated ski pants are equipped with a fully taped, waterproof, and breathable shell to effectively seal out everything from deep powder, snow-covered chairlifts, and all-around windy weather. Internal gaiters from a tight seal around your ski or snowboard boots, so you don't have to call it quits in the middle of the day just to dry your socks out, and the Cordura-reinforced scuff guards deliver reliable protection against everything from boot buckles to sharp ski edges.

Any style of pants for women is always tricky with sizing. Hit the lottery on this one. I'm 5'4", 145 with muscular glutes and legs and purchased size Medium. They terrific, if not a tad long, but not a show-stopper. Multiple pockets in strategic locations. Elastic gator keeps snow out of ski boots and pants from riding. Cozy insulation without too much bulk. Functional and slim-lined. I like the ability to wear a belt. So far I've found them to be great for all conditions of skiing: very cold, wet, warmer temps. Hope you have the same good fortune!

I bought these in the teal and red. The colors are so nice and true to what you see on-line. I have a very straight build. These have a lot of fabric around the hips for me. I’m 5’8 and 160 and these were a bit baggy on me and not very flattering. I ended up liking the Slopestar -better fit wise and are far more flattering on me. Nice looking pants though. Wish they fit better bc the colors are great!

I really wanted these pants to fit! The deep plum color was gorgeous, the material felt nice, and the pockets are great. I’m not sure how I feel about the outer thigh vents. I have other pairs with inner vents lined with mesh that would prefer. Unfortunately, they fit well in the waist and hip but are too tight through the thigh. I have an older pair of Marmot ski pants in a small that fit perfectly, slim but roomy enough to be comfortable moving around all day skiing. No way could I squat in this pair!

Love the design; pockets, vents, zipper opening to get over boots, nice color. Unfortunately for me, the large was too bulky at the hips and the medium was too tight in the thighs.

I'm really enjoying these ski pants. I never think about them, which is the highest praise I can give active wear. The fit works for me and they move well. Pockets where you need them without extra bulk. I have worn them without a base layer on days that started out below 20F. Didn't overheat when the temp rose into the low 30's. A base layer on days that stay colder than 15F make these good for a wide range of conditions. Definitely order a couple of sizes to sort out what works best for you - sizing on stuff like this is pretty random.

Nice pants, but they are huge in my regular size - too long and too baggy. Trying the XS to see how they work out.
