Pants or Bibs? Why?

[donbrown]

Bibs ... oversized

Have some with no insulation for spring

Insulated for cold rides

My bibs have chest pockets and a leg pocket to have more stuff!

Great Pant Option

I'm looking to purchase and like the style depicted in the Klim Extreme where the back has a section that goes a little higher and the front is normal, with suspenders.

Like because of more maneuverability, cooler and the back section keeps out more snow than pants.

Those pants have been SUPER popular for us in December. We believe this is because you get the same pant more or less as the free ride, it is truly all black, and you get the suspenders for "free" where with the free rides you have to purchase them after the fact. You do lose out on the tailored to the rear zipper on the side leg zips, but you do still get full length zippers. You also still get knee pads in the Extremes. So really you lose the styling of the contrasting stitching and grey panel colors, but you get a set of suspenders and more material in the back area to keep snow from coming into the pant. We definitely approve of this product.

Uninsulated pants with the higher back and suspenders.

Have had pants before (two different styles, manufactures) and now back to bibs. Like the bib set up better for extra pockets as well as just a bit more material to keep snow from your backside and getting a wet tail of your shirt.

Shorts if I really could. Besides the fact it doesn't go below 25 where I ride, I get way too hot to wear bibs.

I don't want to look like an old man anyways.

Not sure when I ride I'm worried about looking a certain way. I would hope people buy gear based on performance and fit vs. how they look a certain way. Remember most snowmobilers in the public eye don't look too good anyways so your gear isn't going to help you in that department.
