Anybody ever used the Marmot Scree Softshell Pants

I have not used the Scree pant but they look like a good all around pant. I have the Patagonia Simple Guide pants and like them a lot. Basically the same pants but the Scree do have ankle zips if that is important for you.

I have them and like them a lot so far. I've used them on hikes with just long underwear on underneath and have been comfortable to 20 degrees if I keep moving. They are also real comfortable and seem pretty water resistant. I don't really have anything to compare them to because this is my first pair of softshell pants.

I've owned these pants for a couple of years. Thing I like: slim fit, lightness, thinness. I layer long underwear under them (either capilene 1,3, powerdry, or wool depending on the conditions) They work great for snow activities if you couple them with a gaiter. They are unlined so don't offer too much for warmth by themselves if temps get around freezing. They have pretty slim openings by the ankles though, and though I havent tried it, I would suspect that they might not fit around ski boots. The ankles do have enough stretch to accommodate single layer mountaineering boots. I can check if they will fit my plastic double boots, which is closer to ski boots. I'm not a skier though and have never tried ski boots on…only seen them on my buddies, so keep that in mind
