Burtonmens Ak Gore-tex 3l Stretch Freebird Bib Pantsnowboarding-pants

Nice gear. Seems tough so far. Pretty baggy legs but not restrictive which is nice.

The media could not be loaded. I was so happy with this purchase as I was tired of my old cheap pants that got wet all the time. I was 100% sure about waterproofing quality of the product because it is an expensive BURTON GORE-TEX stuff, right? NO! Today was the first day in the mountains with wet snow/light rain (8ths day in the season so far) and my butt got completely wet. It was so bad that we couldn't continue and headed back home. I can't express how disappointed I am (wasted 200$ lift tickets as well). This product is absolutely not usable here in Washington State where it is raining all the time. What's worse is that my wife has 50% cheaper The North Face 100% waterproof pants (non-gore-tex) and they are dry! Check out the photo for comparison. I couldn't believe that the pants can be that bad and decided to test them in bathtub with a thin layer of water - similar to what you get on a lift in a rainy day. As you see on the video the material 100% not waterproof. I'm starting a support request with Burton and update this review once I hear something from them.
