Trying to decide between the Alpha SV and Theta SV bibs. Will be used primarily for skiing, snowshoeing and winter camping. What is the difference in construction?

I'd recommend the Arc'teryx Theta SV as a ski pant. Both use the same fabric in the legs, but the Theta SV uses a highly breathable back panel, lower front (just above belly button), and is built with more ski-specific articulation in the knees, and internal powder gaiters. The Alpha SV has removable foam pads in the knees, and a much taller torso.
