Customer Reviews The North Face Freedom Pants

Snowboarding pants that get the job done. I have had the same pants before and lasted me close to 10 years and will still keep and continue to use both pairs now.

I wore these pants on an east coast weekend ski trip and was very impressed with the fit and performance. I'm 6'1" 175 lbs with a 34" waist and the fit with the Medium was great. The ability to adjust the waist with the velcro tabs throughout the day is a bonus. The length is just right for me and the gaiters on the bottom fit snug around my ski boots and did not ride up or let in snow. I carried a lot of items in the three pockets and everything was held safely and securely on and off the slopes. My lower body stayed completely dry, which was impressive with the wet and slushy snow conditions that weekend. It was also nice to open the vents and feel the breeze a couple of times during the warmer part of the days. No visible wear or damage after plenty of falls and kneeling/sitting on rough concrete walkways throughout the day. These pants were perfect for my needs and I plan to keep them for future snow days and ski trips.

Great ski pant, fit as described.

Perfect.

I use these as my primary snow pants and love every bit of them. They are flexible at all the joints, breathable, completely waterproof, and are versatile enough for any weather I've dressed for. Highly recommend!

5 star Lake Placid proof. Warm, dry, comfortable and totally flexible to ski Whiteface Mountain. Would recommend highly.

Used for skiing, very comfy. Warm but not too bulky. I am 5'6 and the short version was still a little baggy

I've used these pretty hard. As an instructor during this funky nw winter, I've been out in rain, big wind and puking snow. Also with liftie labor shortages during this funky winter, I help break down the mountain one night a week. This entails taking down and rolling up literally a couple hundred yards of fence and hauling to the nearest lift shack. Another reviewer mentioned the fleece-lined pocket as being problematic-I concur as it can get pretty wet in the pocket. I find the fabric to lean more toward waterproof than breathable than comparable 2-layer proprietary fabrics from the competition that starts with a P. Overall, for the money, great pants.

Great snow pant at a great price. Use them for playing in the snow and snowshoeing work great for both.

Wore this on ski vacation and I can't say how much I like them. Great colors, fit, design. Looks way more expensive than it is.

Skiing. Love these pants. This is my 3rd freedom pants & love all three

Excellent fit, color, and performance. Couldn't ask anything more from a shell ski pant

These pants are awesome! I am a new skiier and I took them skiing which involves a lot of time on the ground and they stayed completely waterproof and totally warm. The temperature was in the high 20's to low 30's and I was never cold even sitting on the lifts. I would highly recommend! In terms of sizing, they were pretty true to size. I am 5'9" and wear a 31x31 in pants typically and the medium regulars were perfect.

Bought these to replace an old pair of ski pants that were at the end of their useful life. Bought a size medium and have been happy with the fit (I'm 5'11 and 160lbs) and finish. Pockets where I need them and adjustable waist. Stayed dry and comfortable during a couple of days of NC skiing.

Extremely water and wind resistant.

Great pants, they are light weight but plenty warm enough, water resistant, and very durable.

Perfect. What else can be said.

I had to go to China for the Olympics for work and these pants were a lifesaver! Super warm and fit well!

Warm, comfortable and cool

Bought for my teen son to use snowboarding. He stayed warm and dry. Needed the shorter length and was glad to find in stock.

Looks awesome. Nice and comfy not too bulky. Love the material

I bought these to tide me over while having a zipper replaced on my Steep Series pants. I haven't had a chance to take them out on the mountain yet but I did have an opportunity for some extreme sledding at the park and they performed admirably.

Warm in snow and temperatures down to about 20 degrees.

These are lightweight yet very warm. They block the wind and snow, in temps 20 degrees and above I was warm and dry. I'm glad I bought these pants!

Light weight but warm and sturdy. Inner thigh zips if you get too hot. Men's large, medium length us comfortable to layer thick tights under, for 5'9" 150 lb runner guy. Note though medium length ok for alpine boots but too long for sorels.
