Customer Reviews Columbia Ridge 2 Run™ II Pant

Have been wearing these pants for 6 years, as part of my uniform. Most years, over 100 days each season, and have been cold and never got wet. As long as they keep making them, I'll keep buying...

Great ski pants. Two layers, good quality, great fit (a little skinny), lots of pockets and awesome water resistant.

Very well made, but has no insulation, only the micro dots to keep you warm. I make these my spring skiing pants.

Very comfortable, lightweight. Run a bit large. BUY THESE if you're complementing any pants on this site

Kept me warm, kept me dry, and was a decent price.

I've been skiing for 40 years. I've tried many other high end brands. Columbia has never disappointed me. The quality for the price is excellent. The vent feature in the legs is key for me. I hate to sweat. I wore these this weekend with no base layer and stayed very comfortable in 15 degree bluebird on one day and in 24 degree snow the next with 30 mph winds. I will use these for cross country too. Love the adjustable waist.

im a 6 foot 4 and got the Medium size, it fits perfectly. very stylish, useful pockets and very warm.

....not easy to buy pants without trying them on, however, these pants fit perfectly, they were warm on the Colorado ski slopes and were comfortable and functional with many pockets....they were awesome!

Wore them in really cold weather with just a pair of bike leggings. If I hadn't been aware of the temp I wouldn't have known it was cold out.

I use these for snowboarding and they work great. Bottom of legs fit around my boots nicely. They keep me warm when it gets really cold night boarding and when it is warm the leg vents work great to let my legs breathe. I ended up needing a size bigger than what was recomended, I am about on the line though. If you are close I recomend a size bigger.

Very well thought out. Pockets in the right spot and a good shape to them.You really don't think about the small things unless you have a bad pair. I really like you can order them in short being somewhat vertical challenged. very warm and waterproof

My 17 year old son wanted these pants for snowboarding. He likes them a lot!

I'm a huge Columbia fan. The quality is great and this product shines with this Columbia product. You'll be happy!!!!

MEN'S RIDGE TO RUN II PANT in Black - Medium I'm 6-2 and usually have to buy a large to get a pant that is tall/long enough but when I tried out a large it seemed too big in the waist so I tried on a medium and that fit perfectly for my size 34 waist. The adjustable waistband is an added benefit. This pant features waterproof breathable fabric which worked great on the slopes as well as Omni- Heat which combined with the fabric made for a comfortable day skiing. As noted by others the gaiters seemed a little wide/big but when I tried them on over the ski boots they worked great even having snaps to adjust the gaiter closure to a range rather than just one size. For using with hiking boots they may be a little big but I use them primarily for skiing. Nice construction, lots of pockets, loops for your gloves or lift pass, scuff guards on the inside of the lower cuff, and a great price. Recommended by this skier.

These pants are great! They're not too thick and bulky, but keep you warm and dry. They were an early Christmas present for a 2015 trip to Rocky Mountain National Park in Colorado during that week. We did a lot of snowshoeing and got up high - above 11,000 ft. It was very cold and windy as well with temperatures in the single digits and low teens Fahrenheit. I was actually a little concerned with the layer of Thinsulate insulation because I sweat a lot, especially while hiking up mountains. These pants were replacing a ventable/breathable wind-breaker pant that I wore along with sweat repelling thermal underwear. I was pleasantly surprised. The pants along with the thermal underwear were perfect! They did not cause me to sweat any more than usual, and I actually appreciated the extra warmth and insulation that the pants provided compared to the old ones. These pants have plenty of pockets; something that my old ones did not have. The thigh pockets have velcro flaps which allowed for easy removal of my cell phone to take pictures. The hip pockets have zippers which are perfect for more security, as well as zippered rear pockets. I loved the form and fit of the pants as well. They look good on you! The waist can be easily adjust with velcro straps on either side of the waist and are very comfortable without a belt, but I wore a belt during the climbs and would recommend that. While hiking up, my old pants would bind at the knees and pull the pants down around the buttocks, but these are formed just right and don't have these issues. As for keeping snow out of your boots, the inner liner comes down nice and tight. I wore a high (ankle high) hiking boot, not a mid, and the liner never popped above the boot even after all of the uphill hiking. You can definitely use these as a ski pant, but I'm not sure if they are "true" ski pants. The only area for improvement that I saw while snowshoeing was that the lower part of the pants could be tighter around the ankles. My snowshoes hit the lower part of the pants a few times because of how wide they were; not very often or consistently, just a few times. Definitely not a deal breaker! Like I said, I love these pants! The pants are wider to allow wearing a ski boot, but that's not required for a hiking boot while snow shoeing. No issues after a solid week of continuous use. You will not regret having these pants!

Have worn these pants three times since purchasing and they have held up great. They have a nice, modern fit (I wear a 34 pant and got the Medium). The pockets are great and fully zip and as expected there are leg vents for those hot days. The Omniheat works as you would expect keeping me appropriately warm with only a thin baselayer underneath. Overall, great product, I would recommend.

I love these, I bought them to replace an old pair of Columbia Convert snow pants, when they first got here I was surprised at how light they are, and honestly I was skeptical about how warm they would be. But they worked great! Spent about 4 hours on the snowmobile in constant sleet and snow, and stayed warm and dry the whole time!

I was under the impression that these pants had Omni-Heat insulation as well as thermal reflective lining, but there is no insulation, just the silver dots. I wore them (over Omni-Heat baselayer bottoms which were over another lightweight baselayer) on a snowshoeing trip in Yosemite on Black Friday and I was surprisingly warm, I even had to utilize the leg vents. True to size, warm, and dry, the only complaint is that I thought these were also insulated, but now that I've used them and found they are plenty warm I have no complaints. Great pants!

Purchased this in preparation for the winter and a few hunting trips. I purchased the Graphite Digi Print and its a little more "blue-ish" than it is grey but overall seems to be a great product. Haven't had the chance to really put them to the test yet since I am from the south and it doesn't get 'cold' until late December.

Bought the Columbia ridge 2 run Snowpants before my 4 day ski trip in the Rockies and couldn't be happier. Light. Warm. Comfortable. Attractive.

I brought two pants! Very stylish and functional! Especially omni heat works well.

Great fit and not very bulky, I'm a 34 waist and the pant has plenty of room around the waist but the excess can be taken up easily by the adjusting the sides. It is difficult to find pants short enough for me (inseam 30) but these pants are perfect in length.

I'm a size 33/32 so I originally ordered a medium short and a medium regular. I didn't really find to much difference in the "short" and "regular" versions of the pants but the medium was very snug. Ended up getting a large and it worked. Great pants, durable, kept me warm on a day that was in the teens.

These pants are stylish and highly functional. They're great as a light weight shell worn over tights. So far they've held up great on the slopes in Minnesota with temperatures as low as 0 degrees F. Plenty of vents are available for when the weather warms up. Lots of pockets too. Great pants.

Awesome pants, Fit great good material and sizing was no issue adjustable Velcro sides allow for adjusting, Fast shipping
