Viking Tempest Classic Waterproof and Windproof All Weather Shell Pants

Well-made, but we thought they were a bit of "overkill" for our needs. These are heavy duty, or at least we thought so. More suited for Alaska or Minnesota than southwest Washington state. Could not find the size anywhere locally. Amazon pricing beat anything we saw, plus they had them IN STOCK at the time we ordered. Local shops said they would be Special Order and take WEEKS to arrive. We returned them for a lighter version which has worked out fine.

Very good pants especially for the price. They fit well on me and I am 5'10", 160 lbs. I wore these in multiple storms as I sailed across the pacific so they were definitely put to the test. They never ripped or let water in anywhere. Adjustable velcro is nice for the ankles and waist, but it would have been nice to have some pockets.

Besides the button falling out after 3 uses, it fits great, does the job, keeps you warm (almost too warm for 60+ degrees). Disappointed the button fell off so quickly, never used the button only kept it snapped.

These feel and look like pretty solid, heavy-duty pants, and we were assuming that when we ordered them. The side zippers are convenient and great for getting wet gear on and off, as we work on boats. Without doing anything too extreme though, these pants tore right away. They were not hooked on anything obvious, just from moving about and brushing up against things. We bought two pairs- one had torn within a week and the second developed wear in the seat already so that your butt gets wet sitting on anything wet. Was really thinking they'd hold up a whole lot longer than that.

These rain pants work great in the snow over regular clothing. Excellent quality and heavy duty fabric. Easy to take off with all the zippers and Velcro everywhere. I would definitely recommend them. Price was decent too given the cost of some snow pants. I bought 2 pair for recent snowmobiling trip. Going to buy a 3rd pair for my daughter in Denver for snow play.

My intent for these over pants was to help shield some wind on a motorcycle ride.At 35 mph, about 50° I could feel the wind through the over pants and regular jeans.They are a little bigger than I’d like around the waste, but I’d rather have a little big than too small. I’m a 36 waist and they fit well, other than the waist being a little loose. And not much adjustment available. It does have an elastic band, maybe a size smaller would have been better. But I didn’t want too small and bust out the crotch, I am using them for a bike, so getting on and off was something I had in mind when considering the size.They were fairly easy to get on and off while having work boots on. The side leg zipper does go plenty high. They were a little noisy when walking.Similar material to my Columbia jacket, which I wore with the over pants, the jacket however was completely windproof, even at higher speeds. As far as waterproof, I don’t know if I even want to venture down that road, if they don’t stop the wind at all, I’m skeptical as to how they will withstand rain. Pretty much a waste of $$ for me.

Just got these and they are great. I like how they can zip all the way off, so no pulling over boots. xsmall has about a 30inch waist and 29inch inseam. medium size has about a 32 to 34 inseam. The waist is about 34 to 36 and some what adjustable with the hook and loop {velcro} straps. I have a jacket by the same company and it has held up well to heavy use in construction.

I've gotten to use these a few times and they are worth their weight in gold. I wore them in the rain after a torrential downpour for a wilderness hike in mud and water. I ordered a size larger than I would normally wear so that I can pull them over my work pants and they fit just fine.

Snap is loose and pops open with no pressure.Otherwise these are rolled up and in my saddlebags in case there is rain.

Not made for hard work... break really easily.Ces pantalon déchire très facilement et ne sont pas fait pour travailler dans des conditions moindrement difficiles (forêt/chasse)
