My Review of SMARTWOOL Women's Midweight Bottoms

Originally submitted at Eastern Mountain Sports

The Midweight Bottoms are made from SmartWool's heaviest NTS fabric. Warm, yet still breathable for stop-and-go activities, they're ideal for cold weather.


These are awesome!

5out of 5

Pros: Warm, Non-itchy, Soft, Moisture-wicking

Best Uses: Hiking, Cold weather, Biking, First layer

I bought these pants to use while biking in the cold winter. I use it for my base layer and they are very warm and toasty! I LOVE these and wish I had bought more pairs. They are moisture-wicking and my legs are never sweaty after my bike rides. I am probably a small, but I ordered a meduim to have some flexibility and they are just perfect. I can't wait to try these out hiking in the snow or just in cold temps. NOTE: These are a base-layer and I wear a light-weight windbreaker pair of pants over them. I don't believe these are wind-resistant.
