Arctix Men's Avalanche Athletic Fit Insulated Bib Overalls

Nicely made. Great Quality. for reference im 5'7", ..170, pant size: 33/30...i orig ordered the M/30 it was more like a perfect fit ...so I returned it and went with L/30 to allow for layering & more movement.Very comfortable & warm...Looks great on. Kept me dry for 2 days newbie snowboarding in 20degree snow fall. Length is great. All the features perform as presented. Fit well over knee pads and a crash pant. I could even tuck my mid layer jacket under it as well if I wanted to. Size large allowed for ample range while snowboarding. After 2 days of numerous falls, I remained dry & all seams remain in tact. Also has ample pockets. Very happy with this purchase.

I work in a refrigerated warehouse 12hr shifts. this with a couple other things keep me warm all shift

UPDATE! Zipper busted and can’t be fixed. Perhaps it was because of the snug fit. Ordered a snow bib from another company, but it was extremely poor quality. Ordering another pair of these (XL this time) and hopefully the zipper doesn’t break.Got a Large. I’m a nudge over 6 foot and around 190 pounds. Fit is almost perfect, but just a little tight. I think that’s the “athletic” style. Maybe an XL would have been better to allow for more room in the legs? Product is great. Been rolling around in deep snow. Staying warm and dry. Highly recommend but sizing always a crapshoot.

Although it has yet to even remotely warrant wearing these for the purpose for which they're designed, I can say that, upon trying them on, they fit very well and appear to be of great quality. I'm excited for winter now, or at least temperatures where these can be tested.I'm 5'10" medium build, 29" - 30" waist and 30" inseam. I ordered a 'small' and it is just the right amount of snug with a pair of jeans on, but I normally wear long johns or pajama pants under my snow coveralls which would fit perfectly. The boot gaiters are a nice touch, but I'll have to see how effective they are with snow that comes up to mid-calf and higher. I did splash some water onto them, and it didn't seem to soak through. The insides are slick, too, which I like -- it helps when getting a leg into them.All-in-all, nice design, cool color (charcoal), great fit, seemingly durable -- now just to wait to be able to test them out. Winter's not so bad if you have good gear.TESTEDI'm SO happy I purchased these. I've been able to test these in -15F with -30 F wind chill. I'll be completely honest -- I couldn't be more impressed. Nothing can bother me in these. I will say, though, that I can't wear them over 25-30F or so; I begin to get too warm. If the temps are below 0F, I'll wear long johns under them, but above that, a simple pair of flannel PJ pants will suffice -- just as a layer or boundary OR if I need to dress out of them for whatever reason. I don't know of anyone who just wears coveralls with nothing under them.The built-in leg gaiters function very well, and I'm happy to have them. I have worked for several weeks now with snow on the ground, sometimes up to several feet and I have yet to have any snow get into my boot. The elastic and material that's integral the pant leg do a great job of hugging the boot and stay at the bottom of my laces.The only thing I'd change is adding belt loops OR a place to stow a knife. Yes there are pockets; however, for a frequent knife user -- they're far from ideal. I have added a nylon riggers belt with molle-like loops on it and that has seemed to help quite well. I am able to add a fixed blade to my gear.As far as the overall material and craftsmanship of this piece of gear, I'm very impressed and am confident to wear this on the worst of days.

First off, this is one of the only short bib ski overalls that fits correctly in rise (crotch). Most manufacturers simply shorten the legs while not making any alterations elsewhere. This invariably makes the pants too long in the crotch which restricts your movement, feels uncomfortable and looks a bit like you've got sagger pants on. Arctix seems to have the short fit worked out.Note that these are NOT made from fancy 2L or 3L laminate waterproof / breathable fabric. They are basic coated polyester with an exterior DWR finish. Arctix claims "5000mm Thermalock" which, if the 5000mm claim is accurate, should be good for most conditions other than wet snow or rain. I wore these skiing in conditions ranging from super cold (12°F) to just above freezing (35°F) and they were fine. Decent warmth and they didn't get wet under my butt riding lifts with fresh snow on the seats. One thing I do to most of my cheaper winter gear is to wash them once, tumble dry, then hit them with an extra coating of NikWax DWR or, even better if you can find it, Bayes Fabric Protectant spray. Tumble dry again on low heat and you're good to go for months.Most importantly, they fit.

Fit is great and along with some good clothing underneath, I stayed plenty warm in freezing temperatures. However, there is one serious issue with this product. There are zippers at the bottom but only 10” or so. They are not full length zippers; therefore, you cannot put them on with boots. A problem if you’re getting ready in the field in sub-freezing temperatures. Will go a different route but keep as a spare as I can’t return them in used condition.

I bought the XL Short (30”) inseam. I am 5’10” 210Lbs. These fit me perfectly! I don’t understand the fuss of thin material noted on other reviews, the material is fine. The thread matches the gray color and they look sharp. The legs flare to accommodate boots. The insulation is not bulky and will be fine with a base layer. The shoulder straps are wide and don’t slip off my shoulders. Good solid construction! I Def recommend!

The media could not be loaded. This jumper was great. I’m 6’4 about 280 and ordered the XXL. I loved the color, style, and the wide leg fit The straps make the snow gear more fashionable. I sat in snow and felt no moisture seeping through and the best part are these are warm. I also got the camo set !
