Where to buy a good pair of snowpants/bib

Recommended Posts

RH.

Having some problems finding a good pair of snowpants in town can someone point me in the right direction to who sells them, it seems they all sell “ski/snowboarding” pants but nothing really good for ice fishing and snowmobiling. SPI safety used to have some but when I looked there i couldn’t see anything

I'd check out gear up first, I got a good pair of pants there for a decent price a few years ago, unless you want to pay extra at a dealer for something with letters on it.  In my opinion a good pair of bibpants will do just fine, my legs just don't get that cold, however for a jacket I would go for the best out there.  Of course I still wouldn't buy it from Excalibre.

Picked up a set from Striker. Very warm and it is a floater suit also. I have the jacket and bib pants. They are a little more expensive but in my mind well worth it. I found them on sale on line. Amazon.ca has them at a resonable price.

I purchased Striker as well.  They fit and feel awesome and seem like they will be very warm.  I can't wait to get a chance to get on the ice and try them out.  They are also on par for anything you will get from FXR etc.  Money well spent I  say.

Old post but FWIW I have a pair of Dakota bibs from Marks that I am very happy with.  I've tried a bunch of different kinds in the past and have always been disappointed with rips from twigs and/or broken zippers.  My are getting on in age now and still very happy with them.

Are they  nylon type material or more of a canvas type material (like Carhartts)?  If the latter, you don't find they get wet quick when kneeling around the hole?

They are a thick nylon type material with double knee and waterproof.  I think these are the new version, might don't have the reflective bottoms.

Review on here is bad but mine have worked out very well.
