What changed?
These are my 4th pair of these pants and I loved the first 3, but these pill and attract lint. So disappointed, will be looking for a new brand.
Best ever fabric for cold weather activities! The 3SP® XC classic tapered-leg pant is always in style and features a non-roll elastic waistband with drawstring, two side seam zip pockets, 12-inch off-set ankle zippers and the classic front crease stitch. This functional, comfortable pant has a slightly relaxed fit through the hips and thighs and the rise sits at the natural waistline.

I wear these pants every day October-April when I walk my dog in the morning. They are very warm and comfortable. They look nice enough for the grocery store after our walk. The first pair I received as a gift and they lasted 5 years before starting to fade a bit and pill.
See above. Also the fabric pills.
This my second pair of Sport Hill XC ski pants, both are size XL (necessary to fit around me) but they're too long. It would be great if these could have length options for those of us who aren't so tall. Otherwise they're comfortable and warm.
They keep me extremely warm BUT the fabric quality is AWFUL. Picks up lint. Just used a lint remover after a washing. Had a pair that I wore for years with an incredible fit. NEVER picked up any lint, etc. Sad to see the new pants with quality much less than expected - tarnishes the SportHill reputation.
Wearing only biking shorts under these for cycling in 40 and 50degree Wisconsin windy weather. They’re amazingly warm and wind proof as promised.
Years ago, I bought several pairs of these pants for myself and my daughter. We loved them, wore them often to play and simply to run errands. One of the things I appreciated most about them is that they came in my plus size. Someone at Sporthill recognized that large people want quality performance wear. Alas, that doesn't seem to be the case any longer.
I have had these pants for years. They are perfect for backcountry travel. Skiing, hiking, kayak camping. these pants are great.
I have owned 4 pair of these pants for close to 15 years. They are awesome pants and have finally started to show a little wear, so I decided to order a pair of medium long. Unfortunately the fit is totally different than it was 15 years ago. They are too big and way too long. I’ve returned them in exchange for a smaller size.
While I absolutely love these pants, it is very hard to order as the 3SP is constantly out of stock. I tried to buy these pants last fall in preparation for the winter, and could not order them. Now that winter is over, I now have them. Very frustrating!
