Very impressive considering COVID shipping times and that they came from the UK to western Canada.
I chose the classic black colourway in an XL.
(If I could go back tho, Id get a large.)
However, the snowpants look gangster and have a nice proportional fit.
The built in waist gaiter has been a lifesaver many times this season.
Not only is it comfortable, it keeps your shirt tucked in and saves you from snowburn.
Techy Stuff:
The weather in the Bow Valley this year has been a roller coaster.
The RIDEdry10 does its job.
The large inner leg vents are fantastic.
I went out and bought a pair of suspenders to replace the shoelaces.
Pockets:
Now, let’s talk about the biggest reason for purchasing these pants… Im a simple man who enjoys having an abundance of pockets, and Planks delivered on this.
The first thing youll notice is the giant front pockets that sit on the thigh.
These bad boys can fit three whole beer cans each.
I was able to fit a 4th in but would not recommend it.
They also work very well for storing hats, balaclavas, snacks, etc.
I was also very pleased with the two YKK Zip pockets.
On snow performance:
So far, Ive been using these pants for 2 months.
(10+ days.).
I’ve mainly skied park, powder and trees.
I have to say, since I received these pants I haven’t even looked at my old pair.
Theyre so comfortable and roomy.
The quality of these pants is good and theyve held up pretty well.
Ive noticed a couple loose threads here and there, but no major rips or shoddy stitching.
Im gonna be using these till my season ends.
Conclusion:
You made it, thanks for reading this far.
At only 230$ CAD, the Planks x Woodsy pants are a solid purchase indeed.
They dont break the bank, yet remain very durable and functional.
The tech and waterproofing is definitely sufficient and they look really good.
I can say, these will be my new dailys.
Go grab a pair!
