The sizing on these is too weird to deal with. I got a 16 due to the sizing chart I found online, and the reviews here, and they were too big (I'm 5'10" and wear a size 12L pants for reference). But there aren't any 14s on Amazon apart from white ones. These have promise, but I guess my advice is to go up only 1 size from your original pants size. I'll be returning, but the color is so nice I do wish I could find the 14.I'm 5'3, around 125lbs, 27" waist and 38" hips and usually wear size a 2. Due to the reviews I sized up to a 6 and they fit perfectly and the length is just right. However considering these are for skiing a size 8 would probably be more comfortable. I haven't worn them so I can't speak of the warmthness, but they do look great and high quality and the Wild color is a great pairing to give a pop of color to a black jacket.Very nice pants but they run a little small. I typically wear a 2 short so I ordered a 4 short in these to allow for layers. I could have sized up to a 6 because the 4 rides up in the crotch a little. I'm 5'3" 125#.Definitely go up in size but I think all the snow pants you end up doing that cause you have so many layers. I used these pants in Telluride, CO and stayed dry and warm the whole time. It made it through a couple of feet of snow as well as snow moiling. Worked great and was super comfy. I also didn't feel like a marshmallow so thats a plus.Nice quality pants. The ahletic fit makes them ridiculously tight on the waist (check the fitment on Spyder's charts), but overall they sit nicely and are fairly warm.The length is much longer than expected for a petite pant, otherwise the fit is good.These are very nice, warm, dry, & worth every dime. I bought these for my wife who is 5' tall & has a 30" inseam, but they are more like a 32" & hang over her boots so either get a taller boot or shorter pant (if available).Seriously water proofed. Love the color. Buy a size or two bigger than you normally wear. Had to exchange mine once due to size being too small. But other than that - beautiful and seriously functional in cold and wet weather (Iceland tested - in the winter)
