I cannot get these multi colored Scotts out of my mind.
Whoever started this thread needs to die!!!
The kids get new pants this year; I got new pants last year - the kids get new pants this year; I got new pants last year (I'm just gonna hope repetition gets the message to sink in)...

Only two things keep me from questing for those pants:
1) I am 4'11" and they wouldn't fit anyway; and
2) I would have to buy a(nother) new coat to show off those pants!

4'11"? you can wear kids' sizes? These are $98 ...

Speaking from experience, short legs don't necessarily mean that someone can wear kids' sizes. Maybe if they're not only short, but very tiny-wasited with no hips or curves. But I'm definitely a ladies' size (M or L) despite being only 5'1" tall. I think I could maybe get half of me into a kids' size, if that.
Those are cute, though.

Last year I quested for new ski pants because I was wearing Obermeyer kids pants in an 18 (I think) that were way too high waisted... So, maybe I could get away with it in a large or extra large which would then likely be too long...
I do like the ones Pinto posted - not as well as the first pair of Scott's which are so bright!! (The white background is so much brighter than the black to my way of thinking)... but every time I scroll down and see the black ones, I like them better, LOL... and in their favor, I did buy the womens TNF Freedom pant last year - so maybe the kids' style would be similarly workable...
I kind of think trying them on is the only way that works for me. I just don't fit into clothes easily and never have - so I'd have to really really have a burning desire before I'm willing to spend the $$ on shipping in both directions just to try something on!
But I'm really trying hard to resist killing an hour or so looking for a coat that would match the pants Pinto posted!
Pinto, are you planning on starting a skiers' personal shopping business? You truly do have a knack for finding such cute stuff at decent prices!

Clearly we need to combine the threads! I just went back - lots of cute patterned pants posted last Winter - and oddly enough another Scott pant in bright colors -
I think we forget the Pants Slut thread exists because we don't post often enough to keep it on the first page of the gear section!

I was just looking at the Scott pants--dumb question here--one of the styles is called "Enumclaw" ??? what does that word even mean? Is that some geographical place?
and I love that some of the Scott pants (women's) have suspenders. Please, please, to all men's pants manufacturers, please put suspenders on men's pants!!!

Enumclaw is the name of a rural town (logging I believe) in Washington State. Apparently Omak is as well (another pant on Scott's website). I grew up in Washington but even so, Omak stumped me.
But on their website - it says Emunclaw! So I kind of wondered and realized they were Enumclaw last year - so this year's website has a typo!
Hope this helps...

Addendum - no doubt it is the name of what was once a local PNW Native American tribe. Tons of Native American names in that area (especially rivers and forests) - but I have no idea how you would translate it! Google could help you...

Procrastinating -
Enumclaw i/ˈiːnəmklɔː/ (US dict: ē′·nəm·klŏ) is a city in King County, Washington, United States. The population was 10,669 at the 2010 census.[3]
The Enumclaw Plateau, on which the city resides, was formed by a volcanic mudflow (lahar) from Mount Rainier approximately 5,700 years ago [1].
The name Enumclaw is derived from a Salish Native American term that translates as "place of evil spirits", apparently referring to Enumclaw Mountain, located about 6 miles (9.7 km) to the north, and referring either to some evil incident that occurred there or to the frequent powerful windstorms that affect the region.[4][5] The City of Enumclaw says the name means "thundering noise".[6]
I'll stop now...

Maybe it's just me but I'm frustrated that ski pants are low rise. If I fall (and I've had some pretty spectacular falls) I get snow down my butt and then I have to get up and not only brush myself off but dig the snow out of my pants! Something to bruise the ego a little more. And then my backside is cold until it dries off. 
I do want new pants though to go with my new jacket! I have a brown jacket and I think I need some brighter pants to make myself stand out from the crowd more.
