So i am in the market for some new pants, as i lost my beloved predator wear pants at my cousins condo in vail. I was thinking of picking up some special blend annex pantshttp://www.dogfunk.com/dogfunk/SPE0354/Special-Blend-Annex-Shell-Pant-Mens.html#

in either the plum, grey & black, or the Purnk color (purnk is on the special blend site). So two questions. First: I know their stuff runs big, but im not too familiar with the sizing. I wear L pants usually, im 6'1 and like 150 (real skinny) what size would be best for me? I like baggy stuff, but not ridiculously so.

Second: What color would be best with the oakley evo jacket in ozone: Grape royal, Black and Grey, or purnk?(also considering the Green beach check splash, but doesnt look like it would work out)

Im not asking for fashion police, just any input. Thanks alot
 
I'm 6'2" and I have XXL Special Blend Battery Pants. They're fawking ginormous. My last pants were XXL and they were baggy but not ridiculously huge. These ones are ridiculously huge. I would go XL if you want baggy or L if you like clothes that fit.
 
i like the gray pants. the purple would look sick too. i think ozone and purnk would be super bold.

 
haha bold=understatement. I would have to get much better to rock that... but i think ill go with the purple, possible the black/grey check pattern. And yeah, i think ill just go L, and it will still be huge on me. One last question. How does special blend fit compared to foursquare? my friend(about 5'10) got medium foursquare pants and they are huge on him
 
I'm 6'3 and skinny and have xxl annex aswell.. they are huge compared to my xxl session pants.. but i love them.. if your were happy with your old L pants.. large annex will do it.. but i would go xl atleast..
 
my buddy who rides for sb is like 5'10 and got mediums. and there HUGEim 6'4 and that would be plenty bagginess for me. there huge
 
im 6'5 and i have size xl and they are baggy, i think their stuff has gotten progressively larger as the years go on. lol.
 
ok, so should i go L or M? i wore medium predatorwear the past two seasons, but i would rather have worn L as they werent too baggy.
 
We had our sales meeting up in Whistler last year at the same time and at the same hotel as Special Blend. Let's just say they don't support skiing. At all. Not one bit.
 
haha sounds like just about every snowboarding company out there. if i could find a ski company with similar specs, price, and style i would go for it in a heartbeat, but i cant really think of any at the moment. Saga (for example) is sick, but much more expensive. i want atleast (bare minimum) 10k waterproof (more is definitely better) so that takes some other brands out of the running, and i think special blend has good colors. I'm glad you pointed their hate out though, i'll look harder for a ski company to support. That being said, any suggestions?
 
They have been supporting skiing forever...well at least since the late 90's with McConkey and JT Holmes. That is credibility.
 
ok one last thing. How do these things fit as M or L? i want it to fit baggy but not so baggy im drowning in it. XL is out of the question because i know it will be too big. I would be a L in most pant sizes but dont know much about SB other than they run huge.
 
get the large.

you won't regret it. rather it be a little too big then way to small. mark my words, it will probably turn out like that
 
I'd go with L to give you a nice baggy fit. I have the annex pants in XXL but I'm 6'2" and around 235lbs and they are enormous on me.
