Customer Review

Hello There,

possess the pants now four months and use it at least. 6 times a week. Materials are very good (is washed once per week). The interface is suitable for slim people.

Unfortunately, this is but my first Gore-product with which I am not satisfied (otherwise I am very satisfied with Gore-products). The negatives:

- I expect a Windstopper trousers that she protects me in the front area from the cold and can withstand a light rain. Unfortunately, the Windstopper front on the thigh for any reason whatsoever is (Detail?) Interrupted and replaced by wind-permeable fleece without Windstopper laminate. At temperatures below freezing the skin by the penetrating cold irritated and rain comes through here unhindered.

- Further, I do not understand why you used the lower 20cm at the front a Windstopper material that is not lined with fleece, like the rest of the front material of the pants. Ie in cold weather you have to attract high stockings, so the cold can not penetrate directly to the shin.

- The very meaningful leg loops are unfortunately made the heel of a material up over that expands very poor. You can not wear the pants by simply attracting the calf, otherwise bring the stitching the fabric to tear. This means that the pants must be tightened very carefully and elaborately over heels always. A small zip as in the ALP-X or other material could have done a simple remedy.

- Knees are practically not preformed and not sold, so that even after months of use of the substance is still strongly presses on the kneecap.

All in all, seem to have put much more priority on the fashionable details as an ordinary function in these pants the Gore-product designers. I can here the rather excellent ALP-X from Gore or the various Löffler recommend Windstopper trousers.
