This was one of the Christmas gifts I gave my 11 year old.  When I removed it from the packaging, it looked huge and I thought I might need to return it.  However, the size 12/14 actually was perfect and just a little roomy on my fully dressed 11 year old, who weighs 90 lbs (or at least he did last time I checked) and despite the fact size 12 clothing sometimes is just a little too big on him.

He was NOT too thrilled with any of the practical clothes I got him, until the day after a snow storm hit shortly after Christmas.  The snowpants were perfect for keeping warm & dry during a few hours outside making snowmen.  Best of all, he gave me a big, sincere smile when I said, "I guess those snow pants are pretty cool *now*" as he headed off to go skiing with some friends with a cell phone zipped up in one of the pockets.  I should feel silly about liking these snow pants so much, I suppose, but I have to say that I think they are great!
