Why We Like The Outdoor Research Enigma Bottom

When we're skiing in the backcountry or summiting a peak, the Outdoor Research Enigma Bottoms keep our legs warm and dry. The blend of recycled polyester and wool sits softly against our skin as it insulates our lower body, wicks moisture, breathes it into the atmosphere, and dries quickly. That's exactly what we need from our baselayers to keep us from getting too hot—and then cold and clammy—when we go hard in wintry conditions.

Super soft, comfy, tight and loose in all the right places

So far, I've had these in Zion canyons, climbing in the Eastern Sierra, and anytime I've worked outside since purchasing. They're soft, comfortable, and fit snug at the ankle and loose in the hips, continuing to be snug at the waist. In my opinion, they're the perfect shape. I DID have to size-up. I'm somewhere in between the small and the medium of most garments. I usually would go for the small in a next-to-skin garment, but I learned my lesson not to do that with base layers after purchasing a similar North Face product. Ah, OR, never the most flattering brand for shapes but always reliable and long-lasting.

The base layer I needed

It was priced right for a light wool blend with lots of stretch. Fits my needs perfectly.

Poor fit

Not good for curves. Not a lot of give in the material so they aren't comfortable for me as a base layer. I prefer a little more stretch. Based on the other comments I don't think going up a size a a solution. I returned these.

Comfy, but see-through

Suppose it should be a given that base layers might be see-through but I was a little surprised how sheer they are! Still comfy & soft though. But I ONLY wear as a base layer, not as leggings, which is a bit of a bummer as the color's so nice.

Great lightweight base layer

Lightweight and comfortable with all of the benefits of wool. Warmer than you'd think for the weight. Stays as dry as can be. And no odors, even after a hard day in the hills. Love the Enigma line!

I like em, but wouldn't buy another pair.

These get the job done, but they do feel a little cheap. The fabric doesn't have a ton of give to it, but I really like the color and they seem to wick moisture well.

Very cozy

Love these for a base layer. Very comfortable and warm. Not overly stretchy, so I had to size up, but I love them.

I would buy them again.

A little lighter weight than I expected and on the bigger size, but they are good if you are looking for a lightweight base layer!

Undecided on these

I don't really understand the cut on women's leggings from outdoor research.. it's just awkward. These could use a bit more stretch for active movement reasons. Liked my last pair I bought from here more but they seem to be discontinued.
