Women's Dakota Overpant
Length too short! I am 5'6” and expect pants to be a little shorter on occasion but when I did a ride last weekend, found that they are significantly shorter than I had anticipated! My legs were freezing as the elastic wouldn't stay down over my boots! Unless you have a shorter inseam than most women, don't expect them to stay down over your boots!

I like these pants! I was concerned the XS might be too small but I think they run a little large so they fit perfectly! I normally wear a size 7 junior jeans or about a size 4 in misses. These pants were sized 0-2 so I just took my chances and they fit fine! They block the cool wind nicely and fit very comfortably in a riding position. They even have a adjustable strap in the back of waist to tighten for better fit. The front snap could work a little better though, doesn't want to stay snapped even though it's not tight. I would buy them again and have recommended them to others.

UPDATE - Great for wet weather too!
I rode these in a torrential downpour on highways and back roads, and these pants kept me dry AND warm. I recommend these highly. I rode in 2 hours of rain. My buddy in chaps was about to go into hypothermia, but I was A-OK! Buy these and TRUST that they keep you dry!

Great overpants for cooler weather
I wear these when I commute to work. I wear these over my office slacks. For me they are a nice layer when the temps are in the low 40s and cloudy. They keep the cool air out. There are 4 zippered pockets. They are easy to get in & out of. They look great! I'm going to share my gripes but take them as a grain of salt in comparison to the pluses. There are 2 sets of zippers: 1 for the liner & 1 for the overpant--plus there is Velcro on the outside zipper flap. I haven't ridden them in rain, but I
