snow pants

Winter leg covering

Snow pants are insulated, water-resistant trousers worn over regular clothing in cold, snowy conditions.

They keep legs warm and dry during skiing, sledding, or other winter activities.

Children often wear them for outdoor play: Don't forget your snow pants—it's freezing out there.
