Bib Version

Ranked #648 - Men's Softshell Pants
April 3, 2009
The synchro fabric is perfect for backcountry skiing. It breathes well enough (there are huge vents if necessary) and is as waterproof as anything I've used. Water beads off - end of story. Durability seems pretty good and you can't deny that the exterior taping looks sharp. I'm 5'8, 140 lbs, usually a 30-31" waist. I got the small and it's slim but not skin-tight, just the fit I was looking for. All things considered I highly recommend these pants (bibs) and can't think of a single complaint. Just remember to zip up the vents at the top - waterproof/breathable fabric doesn't mean much when snow is pouring in the side of the pants.
