Looking at purchasing these pants for skiing? Will these be warm enough with just under armor coldgear leggings on underneath?

Yes ot will. I just came back from a ski vacation and it was -10 c and it was ok

Ski pants tend to be hard to size right. I would try a Medium first, but they might be long on you.

They would probably become cold due to the amount of sweat that would build up. They wick enough for an active job / hiking, but think it may not be adequate for a sport.

I would just have a fleece single layer on these. I would not put anything thicker as the heat from these have to penetrate through whatever you put on there.

It really depends on the pants. I've worn them under sweatpants, but I think jeans would be tight.

They are thin enough and compression leggings, but not sure they bring warmth other than them being another layer. The compression will help with the hiking and may keep you from getting cold just because it is another layer of clothing.

If you mean 20 below, no way will these work. If you mean 20 degrees, you may be ok if your activity level is high since they're rubber on the outside with a thin layer of fleece on the inside and they will keep the heat in. They have a good grip and are completely waterproof. Small containers may be an issue depending on what the container is like. Hard to say about that. My husband uses them for shoveling snow in those temps and was fine. Hope that helps.

I would not recommend for cold weather. The reason we bought them is they zip together and wife and I could zip them together and sleep like in double bed. Zipper is a bit weak but overall a decent price and worked for us...

"Warm enough" depends on the person. That said, I wear mine from +15F to +50F and I am perfectly warm. Below freezing they keep me warm only if I am actively cycling. If I stopped for more than a quick snack (15 minutes) I would be a bit cold.

I have and it was fine. I prefer just wearing leggings under them, but jeans will fit. For the best comfort, go with leggings.

If you clip them on your leg good and arent too wild you should be ok. I use mine for skiing and have no problems.

They do not have a temp rating. I was just out in -30 temps with two base layers on under these pants and I was relatively comfortable.

They are quite thin. I was happy in the mountains in spring, but they won't work for a winter hike. They are loose fitting but not baggy - underarmor would probably be fine, but nothing bulkier than that.

Yes, but you would get cold fingers as these are "fingerless". If you put gloves under you would have a fit problem and gloves over would not work. In my humble opinion.

I've used polypro in the Marines, but for skiing they're pretty thick, unless you find some that are thin. And I believe you'll want something thin to wick away moisture and excess heat while skiing. Matter of fact, 2 years after active duty, (1999) I did some training with a reserve unit and we went cross country skiing - believe it or not. It was so cold, but the only thing they let us wear was our skivvy tops and bottoms under our gortex...because the skiing was going to heat us up and it did (this was in Grayling, MI and it goes down to the teens; add wind and you're at ~10. now in 2004 and 2005, I went snowboarding with my friends, and I had no thermals on that I could remember. Both trips were freezing cold in Petosky MI. I just had snowboarding pants, wool/blend boarding socks, and regular skivvies. And I was fine, never overheated, b/c the pants had venting zippers - or whatever. Oh yeah, the sun was a big help too. If you're going to ski as incessantly as possible, and you're going to wear snow pants (I assume are insulated), I'd wear something thin underneath. If you're going to only wear gortex in ~10F weather, then polypro might be the ticket. Another thing too. One thing our corpsman told us about polypro, is that you can overheat in them. One thing I've heard about wool from reliable sources, you won't overheat. Polypro is breathable, but will hold heat and won't let go - hence overheating. Wool on the hand is thinner and more breathable, so it can let go of unwanted heat from all the skiing you want to do; and still keep you warm. Hope this helps. So my best guess at ~10F = snow pants + thin wool.

Probably better than warm packy snow. Should work well. I am very eased with them

HI I used them last winter for snow blowing, during our brutal cold winter, and they worked very well. So well, I bought another pair . I think you will be glad to have them on - on the slopes.
