Beta AR pants really NOISY

Hi,

I purchased a pair of Arc'teryx Beta AR Mens Gore-Tex Shell Snow Ski Pants XL from a top-rated+ ebay seller(100% + feedback) and the pants appear to be genuine.

However, the pants are really noisy when I walk or move an inch. Is this typical and is there a way to make them less noisy. I tried on a smaller size at a store once and don't remember them being so noisy.

Had a pair briefly and don't remember any extra noise. That would have stuck with me I think.

Here is an audio sample of me walking with the pants. This is very irritating. I will live with it if this is normal as I'd rather be dry.

Gore-tex usually "loosens" up over time.
