Just received these pants. They are absolutely beautiful and very good quality. They are exactly the same blue that I needed to match my swix cross country jacket that I bought last year.
I bought this jacket a year ago. I just love it for cross country skiing, snowshoeing or hiking. I just received the pants that goes with it. I was hesitant to order because of the blue that could have been a different blue. Il is exactly the same blue and they are very beautiful and high quality. Thank you Swix for offering good quality cloths. I will continue shopping with you.
My last review about the sizing of these jackets and the sleeves being too short still stands but the WEB site and the people running are good and decent because through my complaint to there service email they agreed to take back my poor fitting jacket and refund my money thank you.
BEWARE! These jackets and not made for large tall people even the.XL size .the arm are super short and and not the same as the other swix jackets. The arms are 10 to 15 cm short they came half way up my forearm.
Also they don’t not accept returns D. NOT ORDER FROM THIS WEBSITE TOTAL RIP-OFF!
Our family does a lot of skiing ranging from Nancy Green to freestyle so I thought this file guide would be ideal for the different angles our skis are set at. The pros are that it is solidly made, the angle easily adjustable and the file attaches firmly. The drawback is that the downward side (not shown in the photo) does not have a piece to prevent the tang end of the file from pushing against the ski's base. Most other base edge guides I've seen are designed to prevent this. Unfortunately the Swix website did not have a picture of the bottom side of the guide so it was only by purchasing that I discovered this. Despite the good build quality and adjustability I don't suggest buying this.
L'eau fuit par le bouchon qui n'est pourtant pas fissuré. Le joint est neuf.
Ceinture inutilisable dés le début.
I am really happy with these poles. They are lightweight, strong, and I love the wide baskets. We’ve had so much snow in the Ottawa area this year that these baskets do a nice job not sinking too deep. I am very happy with these poles.
Baskets provide ample float and generated good power.
Previously using alpine touring poles for my NNN-BC set up. These climb just as well and give more drive on flat kick sections. Only tested briefly as conditions are marginal (+4c, rain, deep soft snow pack of trail in upland forest). Will update when taken out in regular conditions.
Comfortable and have nice give to move around as I ski. I was warm in minus 15C and dry. Love them!
Tights are a little snug on the legs and not much room for a base layer. Generally nice and I do like swix quality.
I can’t say enough bad things about my mitts. Swix only sent me one and a half mittens. Not much I can do with one. Because they were “final sale” Swix will not even acknowledge my purchase. Sucks to be Swix and sucks to be a customer.
Just another retail scam.
Hi Andy, we're very sorry to hear this- we are in the business of selling pairs of gloves and don't want you to be left with a glove and a half! I do see that we've tried to get in touch with you- first on Feb *25th and again now as we've recieved your review. Do you think you can check in your spam inbox for those emails or respond to the notification from this review so that we can sort out the situation?
They were the right length, fabric has the right amount of stretch for xc skiing but they'll be good for cold weather running too! For the price, they were a good purchase and what I was looking for!
Poles arrived in box broken in half. At first I thought this must be some weird pole I have to assemble myself. What a disappointment.
I absolutely love this fanny pack. I have used it the last few times while skiing and it is very comfortable. It holds my phone, my glasses and it has room for a granola bar and a juice box. I wish I would’ve bought this product way earlier. My mom also got one and she loves it too! Very versatile pack!
Love the gloves but run small. Size 11 was more like a 9.5
I followed the size chart and ended up as a size 8 but since they were sold out of women's sizes, I got the men's medium. The fingers are a a bit long but not horribly so and the palm is a good size sooooo I don't know if a smaller size would have been better... maybe. The chart was not entirely helpful in making a sound decision. I really love that there's thick padding on the backside of the hand so that it's protected from the cold. The only other complaint I have is that I can't really get my phone to recognize my touch so off comes my gloves if I want to take a pic while in the back country--which the beauty of my area calls for regularly. The tow & two singers is a game changer and my hands stay much warmer as result. I have been wearing these for the -5 to -15 temps.
Pour automne/printemps. Plus léger que je l’aurais cru, mais confortable et respirant.
I’m 5’10’’ and the length of those pants are way too short. They are about 6-7 inches above my ankle. They fit very well at the waist. I skied once with them and my ankles were freezing, so it was very uncomfortable…. My daughter is 5’4’’ and still fit short on her. I ordered a Large size to make sure they would be long enough. I unfortunately won’t wear them again…
Very good and quality product.
Unfortunately, these pants did not fit me. I had to return them. They were a little too tight on the legs. I wanted to be able to put a layer under for very cold days. They would fit very well for a taller, slim person. I had bought the medium. I am 5’-3’’ and 130 lb. I wish they would make crosscountry ski pants for shorter person.
Nice grips. Would be helpul to state does not come with plug/stap retainer and which one to purchase. I wrongly assused that these were interchangable amongst poles.
Sizing is very small. My very old (20 years) staps that were small are larger than the new mediums. It would be helpful to note a hand circumference to assist sizing. The staps appear well made. My old straps lasted 20 years with skiing over 1,000 km/year with about 60 to 70% classic. Rating is lower only because of lack of guidance for sizing.
