I just bought a pair of near top of the line Arcteryx bibs last season.
Fucking hate them.
I wish Burton made ski pants or at least started putting a tough material on inside at boot where the edges sometimes cut through the pants.

[ScumbagSteve]

Cabelas Guide Wear. Gor-tex, waterproof and half the price of "ski" wear.

[MakersTeleMark]

Patagonia Rubicon FTMFW.

[coldfeet]

whatever Julia Mancuso is wearing.

[Angle Parking]

whatever Julia Mancuso is wearing.

That ^^ or Patagonia Alpine Super Bibs. Unlined bibs in general. Preferably from your top end makers. I wouldn't wear anything else.

[El Chupacabra]

Anything stretchy, with stirrup things over the feet.

[axebiker]

Flylow Chemical pants.

[Hugh Conway]

Partial to this look:

[Lindahl]

Anything with inner and outer vents, durable fabric, loose fit, snaps for a powder skirt, and suspenders made from a stretchy material. Also, a metal hook behind the buttons/fly - I pop buttons even on way oversized pants when getting dynamic (moguls/crud/hucking).

Oakley Flare pants come really close but not durable enough. Flylow is close, but missing some key features, the main one being suspenders.

This one is easy. Arcteryx stinger bib. I fell in love with the Arc't Minuteman bib and the stinger replaced it a few years back. My minuteman bibs have about 8 very hard seasons on them and are just now getting so stained and worn out that I got some Stinger bibs middle of last year. The stinger is even better. Articulated knees, adjustable side vents, med height bib, drop seat for poop time, hard shell w/o liner, durable, good sized cargo pockets w slick zippers, no flaps or Velcro. Can't say enough good thugs about these bibs. Loose fit but not a saggy crotch.

The only complaint I've ever heard is that the side zips only go 3/4 down to the hem so there's no getting out w/o removing boots. Never been a want of mine, but for some people that's a must have.

Hard to believe that a pair of pants child actually be with the price they're asking for these suckers, but these are truly worth the money.

Patagonia Rubicon FTMFW.

Good vote.

I have the heavy-duty Primos from just before the Rubicons came out and they're still kicking, with two patches done by PG that you can hardly tell are there.

when getting dynamic

[BigHerm]

I really dig my Rubicons and my Trewth Bibs. I might get some Chemical pants next, although the two-tone knee thing is kinda meh to me.

[TomCrac]

Columbia Omnitech Titanium w/spenders .... 12 years and they are just showing signs of giving up the ghost.... I am trying not to panic.

[fatnslow]

padded Spyder race stretch pants circa 88' with two pairs of ski socks stuffed in the crotch.

[pfluffenmeister]

just picked up a pair of arcteryx alpha sv bibs. (for cheap!)


oooooh, yeah.

[old goat]

The ones in my avatar. Surplus wool air force flight pants. (It was a long, long time ago and I was very, very poor.)

[Patarero]

Grundens bibs, waterproof and multipurpose. Nothing says core like grundens. Fish in the summer, ski in the winter.

[BigSkyfan]

Ballroom Jeans

[verbier61]

Lofoten, what else??
