I started wearing the bib around 3 months ago on a trip to NZ and since back here at home chasing my normal cool weather targets, bluefin tuna in the ocean or Murray cod in alpine lakes. I've been super impressed on a number of fronts. Firstly when travelling they are light and packed down to nothing but more practically on the water they have been super dry, comfortable and an easy outer layer keeping me protected from the salt, blood and slime. Highly recommended

I have been wearing these in the Polar regions for 2 years now. Fantastic bibs and an amazing product. Light and easy to travel with, they are also rugged and put up with abuse. My one wish.... Please, please, please make the zipper a two way zip. Once you have wet weather expedition gear on... a call of nature is not a minor thing in these bibs.

Fit well and like that they are not heavy and they don't hinder your movements
