Arethese over pants? Will they protect in sub-zero weather?

No you would definitely have to wear some long johns underneath to stay warm. They are comfortable but under 30 degrees you will be cold if outside for anytime.

I bought them for hiking and paragliding in summer. Feel a bit light for colder temperatures, but very tough fabric. Maybe with respective long underwear and depending on circumstances (wind chill, still air, humidity etc.) you could use them in freezing conditions. My 2 cents :-)

You could use them over a pair of thermals; they do seem to offer a bit of wind resistance/repellency. If you're going to do this maybe get one waist size up; they do not run small and there is room in the legs but the waist only stretches so much and thermals often go higher up the abdomen. Oh, and there is enough room around the cuff for a good-sized boot. Cheers!

I wore the Propper lightweight men's pants when I was working in 30-90 degree (mountains) Fahrenheit weather. Ideally they are comfortable in the spring and fall (50-80 degree F). If you are going to wear them in constant cold weather (close to or below freezing) I would wear thermals underneath to provide protection from the elements.

yes, they can get pretty toasty in there. i only wear them to walk to work in the morning as there is dew all over the grass & gets my feet & pants wet & they seem to be fine. but i have worn them out to check on my garden & they definitely keep your feet warm.

If you mean 20 below, no way will these work. If you mean 20 degrees, you may be ok if your activity level is high since they're rubber on the outside with a thin layer of fleece on the inside and they will keep the heat in. They have a good grip and are completely waterproof. Small containers may be an issue depending on what the container is like. Hard to say about that. My husband uses them for shoveling snow in those temps and was fine. Hope that helps.

They are not lined..so no. However, in our New Mexico weather of 66 to 80 degrees..yes.

I don't think it would work out very well (unless your pants are loose fitting the whole way down). You'd be better off wrapping it over top the pants - otherwise I've found it gets to be very cold on the skin.

I bought them specifically as some "cheap" snow pants. We were visiting family in Chicago, and were going to go sledding. we were only out for an hour, and they didn't really keep snow out, especially the pockets, which means your top layer doesn't keep you dry and I would expect you'd eventually get cold. They worked short term, but I wouldn't use them to ski

I wouldn't buy them in a larger size. You want them to fit tightly or at least close to the skin so they don't bunch up inside of your pants. You basically want them to fit somewhat like nylons. Mine fit great except for near the ankles but since I wear them only in cold weather I tuck the bottoms in the socks I am wearing.

I bought these pants in the summer and they have done well on cool mornings until fall. I would not consider them winter pants. I have been camping with them and put them on in the morning and that was ok. It really depends a lot on your personal preferences.

It's a start. If he has an insulated pair of blue jeans over them he should be fine. May want to look at the expedition weight they are warmer.

No, no no. However, I've been wearing these pants for years. I put on a BASE LAYER underneath (Icebreaker merino wool to be exact) underneath. Skied all day in this combo and was plenty warm.

No, they are good to wear over a base layer that is thin yet Insulating. Jeans would be too bulky and too much for the waist unless you go up a size.

They are an elastic like style. I think it would stop snow from going up the sleeve depending on how big your wrists are. I'm a smaller dude so there's a bit of room but nothing crazy. I would think that you'd be wearing gloves on top so wouldn't have to worry about the snow sneaking in there.

I'm an EMT in South Carolina. As far as these types of pants go, they are alright in the heat... they are much more lightweight than some. However, none of them breathe particularly well. I have to wear dark blue ones, maybe a lighter color pant would be cooler.

These are snow pants so they may be classified as waterproof but likely at the lowest rating (given the price) which equates to a light rain. Anything more would have water slowly start to seep in.

i wear mine underneath my pants. they aren't really built for outside umpire pants

Yes/No.Yes: They keep me covered temperature wise on my ride to work, but I'm in sunny socal, so the whole climate is wind resistant. It's a thin outdoor/breathable material.No: These are shorts, with a breathable material.Would I use these to bike on a cold Chicago day, maybe, I'm a sweater, so it'd keep me balanced; but once you stop riding/moving around, the punishment would ensue. Hope this helps.
