Flylow

Nina Pant - Women's

Love the pants... terrible fit

I am a perfect size M in the Flylow Daisy pants, and yet the size M in these Nina pants is WAY too tight. Restricts movement around the butt. Sort out your sizing, Flylow...

Love Them!!!

These pants are way more comfortable and warm than I thought they'd be. I definitely run a little more hot blooded but I haven't felt cold in them yet, even with the east coast wind. They're stretchy and the adjustable straps are perfect. The color is definitely a little more dusty gray pink than they look online, but still really cute.

Poor design

Have to fight the bottom of the ski pant around the top of the ski boots and buckle every time they are worn. Bottom of pant is narrow and does not have enough or any elasticity to make pulling the pant over ski boots easy and accessible. Poor design.

Great pants, but sizing off

I was so excited to buy these pants on sale in my favorite color! I had a pair of Flylow Daisy pants in a medium that I've worn for 4-5 years, so I bought the medium in the Nina pant. I was able to zip them up, but felt like a sausage. Way too tight. I'm 5'4", 144, with strong quads from biking/skiing. I typically wear a medium in everything, and a 10 in jeans/pants. The Nina pants are cut very straight with no curves for a woman's shape. Too tight at the top, and really baggy from the knees down. Strange. Otherwise, the quality looked excellent. If you're super slim and straight with no hips, these would be great, but sadly, I'll need to keep looking.

the sizing feels like a cruel joke

For real. Ordered the same size as my other Flylow pants from a few seasons ago and these were so tight I could barely sit. Immediately returned. It's a bummer, because I love Flylow but their sizing is not inclusive at all.

Great pant, bad fit - returned

I bought these for my wife because she needs snowboard pants that are super waterproof to avoid a wet & freezing butt all day on the slopes. These are definitely waterproof! They are a thick and fairly rigid "plastic" feeling material. But this also means that they did not give at all in their sizing and felt very rigid on her body. The fit was also just wrong. The hips and butt were so tight she could barely walk, but she had to cinch the waist a TON. Due to the rigid material, when she squatted down in a snowboard stance, the pants wanted to fall down in the back, despite the tight fit. It was all just wrong and uncomfortable. She really wishes these pants fit well because they are super high quality.

terrible fit

I orginally purchased a size Med. I am 5'9" normnally a size 6 in pants..and the smallest thing about me is my hips/butt. I could barely get them over my hips nevermind try to button my covid/wine/tostito belly so I returned for a L. Large arrived, no problem with the fit except the front crotch area was so room you could store a pair of mittens down your pants and then the fit from the knee down was baggy and terrible. Snowboard style mixed with a not bootcut but too baggy. My husband asked if I had them on right. Positive note: the color (slate) as great and the pickets/zippers seem great. I read the review here that were positive before purchase but should have paid more attn to the reviews on Flylow website that pretty much all said negative things about the fit. maybe they just aren't meant for normal people bodies...

Runs super small

The color is delightful. The quality seems great. The fit was waaaay too small. I am short (so I was ready for them to be too long as everything is always too long for me). I usually wear a size 12-14 pant so I ordered the XL according to the size chart. Perhaps the size chart is not accurate? Either way, if that is the largest size available this brand does not make gear for woman with any meat on their bones.

Not made for curvy or muscular women

I am a steady size 10 petite in pants. If anything, my pants can run big. Even the XL were too tight on my thighs, right at the meaty part of my quads. I bought too different pants and I really wanted to love them. Even my jacket, that I did like, gave me the feeling that it was really made for straighter women - it bunched up a bit at my hips.

Great ski pants!

I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions

I got these to wear for ski touring since my resort pants do not have any vents. But now I love them so much I'm sure I will wear them in the resort on warmer days too! I am pear shaped and have trouble finding ski pants that fit well. These are pretty good, a bit tighter in the hips and thighs than I was expecting based on other reviews, but a much better fit than I've ever had in ski pants. I can still move freely in them without restriction. The length is also perfect and they have a high rise (up to my belly button). I'm 5'4" with a sort torso/long legs so they could be short on taller women. I got a size M, and generally wear a size 6 or 8 (or 27-28) in pants. The elastic waist adjustment is also key since my waist is small compared to my hips. The venting is great, and the pants seem very durable. They are also pretty cute! This was my first Flylow purchase and I'm sure it won't be the last!
