Customer Reviews Columbia Bugaboo™ Omni-Heat Pants

I bought these in an XS (the smallest size available). When they arrived in the mail I decided to try them on over the pants I was already wearing. Even with pants underneath they were comically huge. For reference, the Obermeyer pants in the attached photo are a size 2. They actually fit like an XS (0-2). The Columbia pants fit like a 4-6.

I usually wear a XS - SMALL. I ordered a MEDIUM since there was no stretch and the reviews said it runs small. The MEDIUM is too small.

They've changed the sizing and styling. This pant is now a slim fit and are sized smaller so they fit like a pant and not a snow pant. They don't fit over my pants. You will need to size up. I want a fuller fit so I have room to move while doing snow sports.

Too small. (I normally wear a medium and I purchased a large just in case). Had to return them.

Nice quality but not enough fabric on backside. Waistline is too low. Result is gap on lower back. Higher waistline or fuller backside would correct the problem. I returned them and am looking for better styling.

Based off size chart and my usual size, I bought a medium. The waist is very tight and so are the thighs, and the calves are huge. They fit terribly and hinder my movement on my legs. Large would just be too big of a size for me. Definitely returning these.

I'm normally an XS but based on reviews I ordered a S...BAD idea!!! These were huge everywhere! Unless you have hips & rear like Kardashians, order your normal size! I returned & ordered a different style.

Product is great, but runs small

I purchased these pants for a ski trip we have coming up soon. I was excited to test them out this weekend skiing. It was snowing so the lifts were covered. After skiing for a few hours we go inside and I realize my leggings underneath were soaked. Yes they are warm but don't plan to wear these if it's snowing while skiing. So bummed I spent $80 on something that's not waterproof and I probably can't return.

The legs were very long ( i am 5'5" for reference) and basically felt like bell bottoms from the 70's. They would not have worked for me even over ski boots, would have been caught underneath or run ragged very easily. Color was very nice though.

The pants were well made, however the style looked nothing like the picture. The legs were so wide they looked odd! Other than that If you like that look it's a good deal. I returned them and paid for postage.

Awful fit. Waist is huge, legs are tight. Ironically, my legs are really thin and my waist is not. No idea who could wear these awful pants, much less ski while wearing them. How do yiu make a pant that runs small AND large, Columbia?

These are the most uncomfortable ski pants I've ever tried. The waist is huge and the knees are skinny. I am 5'6" and 130 and wear a 6 in jeans. I tried the small. These fit my waist okay (still big) but I could not bend my legs (which are quite skinny). So I tried the medium. Even cinching the waist with the Velcro adjusters and wearing a belt the waist was way too big. But the legs were STILL too tight. You cannot move freely and these are SKI pants. I don't know what the heck the designers were thinking. These run small AND big. Truly hideous, overpriced pants. RETURNED.

I'm 5'7" and 170 lb - followed the size chart exactly and the pants were too big in the waist. Even with velcro tightened all the way down I still would have needed a belt. The pants were also too long, dragging the ground in shoes, boots, and ski boots. I will be returning.

These are nice, but they run too small. There is absolutely no give either. I had to return these. Definitely size up one or two sizes if you order these because the size chart is not accurate.

Weird fit. Tight in the thighs but loose at the waist and the Velcro tabs don't help.

These pants looked great, but ran small. I had to return them.

These do not fit me well. I'm 5'4" and 135 pounds. There's no stretch and they're bulky. I recommend Obermeyer. They may cost a little more but the fit is great and they have a good stretch. Plus, they're flattering.

My daughter fell twice while skiing (not major wipeouts) and they tore both times. One panel on the bottom of the leg tore away and the outer layer on the shins tore. My daughter is a beginner skier that was on an easy trail and no real speed when she fell. So they rate a 0 as far as quality. They do keep her warm tho.

I finally had the opportunity to try out my recent purchase. I can assure you that the waterproof technology is a fail. These snow pants did not hold up to "waterproof" as stated. I spent 3 hours or so outside sledding and my bottom and thighs were soaked. Very disappointed.
