So yeah, these bibs cost more than my playstation 3 but ... if you need bomb proof protection and stellar performance across variable weather conditions then look no further. Construction is awesome! The crotch zipper and knee pads are just off the hook convenient!! These bibs are 100% waterproof. I'v had these bad boys out in freezing rain for +5 hours and stayed totally dry. The fit is typical Arcteryx, no extra or loose material anywhere. Im 6'1 ~175 lbs and I M/Tall fit perfect. The ultra-breathable Schoeller softshell upper is perfect with my Alpha LT in colder conditions. Iv tried other bibs like the Cloudveil Koven but the fit, weight, nor construction were anything like these. At any rate, these bibs are flat out great ... just look away when you pay the bill.
