The Exposure II Bib is ideally suited for skiing, climbing and snowboarding--a stark contrast to many waterproof and breathable garments that merely specialize in a solitary alpine activity. It features a durable and waterproof 70-denier nylon dobby weave shell fabric that's uniformly backed by a two-ply waterproof/breathable Conduit membrane. Added reinforcements around the edge guards (ballistics nylon) and back panel (Schoeller) minimize the odds for fraying and premature garment retirement. Adjustable Velcro closures on the suspenders give you the freedom to dial in a perfect fit no matter how you layer your middle garments.
Great pants
Really great pair of pants. Worked well for climbing Mt. Washington in NH. Really like the internal gaiters. Work well with double boots and the crampon guard does a good job of preventing damage.
Amazing Service
I just want to say, that not only do I think the Men's Exposure II Ski Bib are high quality mountaineering pants, but I was even more amazed at the fact that Altrec was able to replaced them when I tore a hole in one of the pant legs. Great pants! Great service!
Great Bibs!
I purchased these bibs for back country winter camping, skiing, and snow shoeing in the mountains of Montana. The last time that I wore them, the temperature was a cool 19 degrees below zero, and they (along with good base and insulating layers) kept me warm and dry. The craftsmanship is excellent, and they are built from quality materials. These bibs have a trim fit (which is typical of Mountain Hardwear products), but they do not limit my movement in any way. They provide excellent protection from the elements, but they do not weigh me down!
