Looking for pants that'll keep your legs warm during chilly morning runs and afternoon cross country treks? Grab the Swix Men's UniversalX Pants. These pants' medium fit won't cut off your circulation, but it won't leave tons of fabric flapping in the breeze either. Knitted elastic back panels add to the Universal Pants' breathability, while wind- and water-resistant fabric elsewhere stands up to light flurries and harsh gusts. Swix gave the Universals articulated knees so you have plenty of room to move, and a full-length zipper for quick on-and-off action.

To preface this, I have to say that I am a very novice skier. Nevertheless, I found these pants to be both comfortable and breathable. I have only taken them downhill skiing but the few times I've used them it was cold and raining/snowing and I was never uncomfortable. Unfortunately I have nothing to compare these pants against (other than the time I tried going skiing in jeans!), but I have been very happy with them overall.

I liked the way they performed for XC skiing. With a pair of Thermals it gave them a wide tempiture range. Fit was good ( Although many XC pants dont come with flys in the front - whats with that?) Only issue and the reason I took them back was the snaps on the side didnt stay snaped, with very little pressure they would pop open. Easy fix for the MFG would be to use velcro.

Just got these and took them out for a cold weather run (20 degrees and windy). Was looking for something with a bit more wind protection and these fit the bill. Great combination of wind protection and breathability. Would love to have a more secure adjustment at the waist - although I didn't have any specific problem.
