Oh gawd no! I'm a boxers, ski socks, 3/4 length merino long underwear, glory zip, heavy weight merino crew shirt, Burton tech flannel and then one piece kinda ginger. Once I hit twenty I started to get cold. Weirdest thing ever...

But I did once snowboard naked!

I think they've gone up in price since I bought it, like another $50.

When I was checking them out, the lofoten pants page was bugged and it wouldn't load. When I told them about it, they apologized and offered 20% off my entire order. Nice.

Anyhoo, yeah, I think only Backcountry carries it in North America.

Really nice gear.

Can highly recommend.
Are these the Fjora shorts? I just saw them on the Norrona site. I've been looking for long shorts for ages! What's the inseam length on those? Comments appreciated. I'd definitely order two pairs.
What's the fit like? i.e. what's your waist size, height, weight, and which size did you buy?

Also, did you order them direct? Or is there a north american source?

Yes, Fjora shorts. Ordered off backcountry.com (eff I should get referral bucks or some shit from them.) Should have also bought 2 pairs, or a pair of the pants.

Im not a tailor so bear with me here.
5'8.5"ish, 145 lbs. Waist size Im rocking 30" slim fit pants with a belt. I went by the Norrona size chart and ordered smalls.

Fit is such a subjective attribute that its hard to describe. I'd say similar cut to the Sombrio Freeride Slim fit ( I think I have last seasons pinner shorts) but without the droopy crotch part to snag on the saddle. Ive got them sitting just below my hip bones, which appears to be where they are made to wear, and the short ends approx. 1" below my kneecap. It doesn't look stupid as the short has been cut with a slight bend in the knee. The front of the kneecap and the seat area and inner thighs are made of almost ripstop nylon material with some stretch while the front panels are a thinner nylon. The rear of the waistband sits higher up to prevent the horrific plumbers crack as well.

Listen does it look like I steered Clooney up there wrong? I think the inseam is around 14". The vents have double sided zippers so they act like ghetto slits to hep you get pads on. My POC knee pads fit under them no problem

Perhaps they change the inseam length as the sizes go up.

A quick look at the size chart shows they do that with their pants. I'd email and ask.
