2008 Orage Maya | Last Updated: 03/25/09
Gear Reviews>>Pants>>Waterproof>>Orage MayaPRODUCT SUMMARY
By Ski Waheenie
THE GOOD
Orage = Style + Performance + Quality.
For really cold days, these pants (the insulated version) keep my bum warm, and they still allow for freedom of movement. With 11 color choices, you're sure to find a pair that suit your fancy.
THE BAD
For backcountry skiing, the vents could be more significant. I would also prefer that all the pockets closed with zippers.
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
The Maya Pants are fabulous. With a classic boot-cut style, these pants are flattering to
any body. If you are on the size fence, however, do choose the smaller size. They are completely waterproof and if you choose the insulated version,
you'll stay warm even in super cold temps. Telemarkers will love the spacious pre-formed
knees for knee-pads!
