The Norrøna Lofoten Gore-Tex Pants are a highly recommended choice for skiing, with numerous reviewers praising their performance and fit for both resort skiing and ski touring.
Standout Features: These pants boast excellent waterproofing (100% waterproof), ensuring dryness in snowy conditions. They are lauded for their high quality construction and durability, while still maintaining a lightweight feel. Key features include multiple pockets for storage, good ventilation (though some wished for more extensive side vents), and a bib attachment option. The design also offers ample room in the lower leg for ski boots.
Common Use-Cases: The primary activity for these pants is skiing, encompassing both downhill/resort skiing and ski touring. Reviewers frequently mention using them in cold temperatures and for extended periods on the slopes.
Fit and Comfort Level: The Lofoten Gore-Tex Pants are generally praised for their great fit and comfort. Many reviewers found them to be true to size and appreciated the adjustable velcro straps in the waist for a personalized fit. The pants are described as having a flattering look and providing good flexibility and movement, especially for skiing. However, some women with a more muscular lower build or wider hips found the women's sizing to be a bit restrictive in the thighs, leading them to size up significantly or even opt for the men's version for a better fit. While generally comfortable, a few noted that the material could offer more flexibility around the hips and waist for non-skiing movements. Some also mentioned a "very large fit (width)" but perfect length. They are described as "lightly insulated," making them suitable for snow and ski activities.
Criticisms or Areas for Improvement: The most frequent criticism revolves around the fit for women with curvier or more muscular lower bodies. Several reviewers, particularly those with wider hips or thighs, found the women's sizing to be too straight or restrictive, leading them to size up considerably or even recommend trying the men's model for a better fit. Some wished for deeper pockets on both legs and more extensive side ventilation for ski touring. One reviewer also mentioned a desire for an easier way to tighten the legs.
Conclusion: The Norrøna Lofoten Gore-Tex Pants are highly recommended for avid skiers seeking a durable, waterproof, and high-quality pant for both resort and backcountry adventures. They are particularly well-suited for those who prioritize excellent performance in cold, snowy conditions and appreciate a comfortable, yet athletic fit. While the women's sizing may require some careful consideration for those with curvier figures, the overall consensus points to a top-tier product that delivers on its promises.
