The Furios are very nice, extremely light pants that are built to withstand even the toughest conditions. The full-length, fully seam-taped side zippers make for a nice air conditioning system on those warmer and dry days on the snow. Just zip them open a bit and let the cool air enter. Certain areas on your ski pants suffer more abuse than others and therefore the Furios offer fabric reinforcement at the seat and the knees. The color combination is pleasant and adds a classy look. Highly recommended.
