Nike Tech Boreas

These are very comfortable and the fabric feels great. I don’t particularly like the fuzzy look on the pants. These are definitely different and make me think of something Jaden Smith would wear.

My husband really loves that these pants are soft yet durable. The drawstring waist keeps the pants from falling down, which is a must! The weather isn't quite cool enough to wear these pants for working out or doing stuff in the yard, but he plans to wear them outside during the late fall / winter. The pants are extremely comfortable, so they'll also be a go-to apparel item for football Sundays. The navy blue color is great, and will go well with most shirts. The pants definitely run big, so I'd definitely recommend ordering a size down from your usual size. The pant legs are really wide, so even if my husband had sized down -- the style itself isn't quite what he was looking for.

Where to start? The moment I saw the fleece fabric and noticed these were pants I knew we were in for an adventure. Unless you’re making a child’s teddy bear fleece fabric is never a good choice. It looks cheap, it feels plastic, it pills up, it collects all manner of debris, it develops an old dingy look after only a few washes, and while it is warm it doesn’t breathe and in the end is not a good choice for any fashion design. The designer did appear to try and tackle the problems with fleece by using a contrasting fabric in the areas where the fleece would wear down faster if it was placed there. Unfortunately the patches of contrasting fabric create an unappealing illusion for all body types. It doesn’t look well thought out and looks more like the design was digging through the bin of fabric scraps when they created this. The fit is also way off. An XL should be slightly over sized on me, but not only an I swimming in them, my husband is too. They seem more like a 3 or 4 XL size. The measurement from the crotch to the waist is also way off. I don’t mind high waisted items that come up to my navel, but these are so high waisted I could practically wear them as strapless jumper. Oddly the inseam length is perfectly acceptable for both me and my husband. The good news is that they are warm and despite being massive they are comfortable. Their oversize means they easily fit over our regular clothes which means they will be great to utilize with our winter weather gear when we need to throw on an extra layer for warmth but don’t need to worry about wind or rain protection.
