Any opinions on the new Drop seat on the Mammatus bib compared with the older model (Modulus bibb?)? Looks like the new zipper has some limitations if you need to use the back door while climbing. The zipper on the older model could be opened all the way, the new one has tree sections. Two down the legs and one on the back.

I did not like the new design at all and ended up returning the pants. I had loved my modulus ones with the old dropseat design and wanted to replace them. Im still on the scout for some new ones.

I agree. The three section zip is easier to use than a continuous zip because the angle of the zipper is easier to open and close. I have used the drop seat on this pant and it works great.
