Mondor Zipper Pants on offer

[Christy]

In case anyone else would be interested, I ordered these pants from Jenskates last week when I saw they were on offer - they arrived within 3 days despite the storms on the East Coast and I've found them useful to put over my dress for warm ups.

Oh! I was contemplating these recently. It looks like they're still on sale.

I know you got these a while back, but how's the fit? How are they holding up for you?

[Christy]

I find they fit well, but I only really wear them as warm ups when I'm wearing a dress (which isn't often!). They're nice and warm, but I need a layer between them and my skin as they feel a bit strange  because of the zippers. They've been washed a few times and are doing well.
I'm hoping to wear them more when it gets colder, but will put some leggings underneath.

What are they made of?

[Christy]

They're a bit like sweatpants, but the lining is more fleecy.

[littlerain]

Is the fit loose like sweatpants too? (That's how they appear in the photos)

I really don't know why I'm even considering them, since I don't even have any plans to participate in any events or wear a dress LOL

[Christy]

They have an elasticated waist like sweatpants. They are looser fitting than other Mondor leggings, but much tighter fitting than sweatpants, and they taper into the ankle. I'm planning to try them on really cold days because they will be much warmer than my usual leggings.

Cool, thanks for the info. Do report back if you end up trying them when it is colder

(I'm jealous of wherever you are cause it is already a bit cold here!)

Our weather has been a bit crazy lately. Today it's around freezing but expected to get to 16C / 60F later in the week 
We get quite a few days below -20C / -10F so I'll have plenty of opportunities to test the leggings out.

So I've worn these a few times now so thought it was time for an update. The big positive is that they are much warmer than my normal Chloe Noel leggings, however I still find that I need to wear layer between them as I don't like the feel of the zippers on my skin. They've been washed a few times now and the zippers have started to pucker quite a bit, which makes the need for a layer between them and my skin even more essential. It might be less of a problem if I used the elastic stirrups but I find them a bit fiddly.

Bummer they are out of stock on the medium.  These are the ones that zipper all the way open on each leg right?  I would wear them over me Se_Ku's.
