Stormline Stretch Rain Pant - Women's

Women's Stormline Stretch Rain Pants / Snap problem?

Really like how confortable those rain pants are but I can't undo the snaps at the bottom of pants, scared to rip the fabric if I keep trying. Help, please!

Could not have made it in Iceland without these!!

I don't normally write reviews, but was compelled to after a recent trip to Iceland. I purchased so many pairs of rain pants from so many different brands, which I tested in the shower before the trip, and ultimately decided on the BD Stormline Stretch and I'm so glad I did. The beginning of the trip rained for 5 days straight, and on one of the longer hike days with heavy rain and out for the full day, I was completely dry and comfortable. They were so easy to put on, didn't have the crunchy swish swash of normal rain pants, they breathed really well, and were so lightweight, packable,and comfortable, I ended up living in these daily with thermals underneath for the entire trip. The pants also do super well for blocking the wind, which is also a constant in Iceland. I normally wear a size small, but went with the medium to have a higher waist and room for layers underneath, and had plenty of room to move my knees and legs while moving and hiking. One of the best purchases for keeping me dry, thank you Black Diamond. An absolute must for wet weather!!

Nice!

Questionable durability, but great waterproofing, even better fit and very lightweight.

Slimmer fit than most horrendously baggy rain paints.

And a little stretchier than most zero-stretch rain paints. Plus not so shiny as most plastic-like rain paints. Bravo!

Black Diamond Rain Pants for the Win

These pants were tested on a recent trip to Patagonia in March. Rain fear is essential here this time of year and Black Diamond kept me dry while hiking and kayaking. I recommend full zip!

Form fitting, comfortable, all around good rain pant

These pants are much more flattering than most of the others I tried on. I have not tested them in the rain yet but they feel lightweight and could easily be rolled up into a backpack to toss on in the event of rain during a hike or climbing day. The material feels nice and durable.

just what I was looking for

The stretch fabric is perfect and makes for a great fit. Very happy with these rain pants.

I really want to like these rain pants - they're comfy and long enough for my 33 inch inseam legs, but they just don't work with hiking boots. Even with the zippers on the legs, I can't get them on and off over my boots. I wear a size 9 boot, so if you have smaller feet, you might be able to, but you're still going to get mud all over the inside of the pants.
