Great Product

Very happy with these long John’s. I have been trying to find something warm for years. I have tried some of the big name gear versions and they have no warmth what so ever and I end up needing to put on two pair to stay warm. These have been great for the 15 and above range I have used them in while skiing. They also seem to fit true to size. Very pleased with them.

i only ware hot chilly's brand. their thin so you are not feeling bulky but really warm. I've been using this brand for at least 15 to 18 years. i worked outside in all types of weather now I'm retired and want them for having fun outside and for shoveling snow. the only thing that's different that i miss are the stirrup's.

Warm….i mean Bad to Da Bone!

Perfect fit, Perfect feel, Perfect warmth. I walk every night durning the winter with these on, and they protect in 0-15 degree temps, don’t let the cold in and let the moisture out. No disappointment here!

Perfect

Perfect length. Not sure what's confusing about the length in the other review. I don't want my base layer in my boots. They are warm and perfect for skiing and snowboarding. I usually am as 34 so I'm in between sizes. I went medium and they are a bit snug but not uncomfortable. I wish I purchased them sooner.
