Foot Loops Are Key

Great design, bought specifically for the foot loops for wading, always get my base layer and mid layer bunching up after a bit of action. These hold my base layer in place and make cold spots no longer. 4 instead of 5 due to no ability to adjust chest and belly for better fit under outer and wader belt. Wader belt makes these bibs bunch up on one side around my belly which is uncomfortable when sitting for hours on end.

Best purchase yet

These are probably my favorite Sitka purchase yet. They are perfect for under my waters or under my Hudson bibs.

These things are awesome!

These have far exceeded my expectations. I wear the sitka heavy baselayer under these and then my waders and I havent gotten cold yet even in 5 degree weather. In fact I find myself needing to unzip my duck oven jacket and partially unzipping these bibs to heat dump after adjusting decoys, or doing any type of movement because i get too warm. I would absolutely recommend these to anyone and I plan on wearing them in the whitetail woods too next season. I'm 6'5 and 245lbs and these fit perfect. 5 stars

Great mid season layer, works

Great mid season layer, works well if your waders have a small leak to keep you dry. Could be warmer and neoprene thermal stocking boots would be a nice addition. Ive also used these as a water and snow layer to stay warm and dry as well on upland hunts

I’m sold-

I just used the cold weather bibs this AM for the first time. Pairs with a high end uninsulated wader perfectly. Big snow storm in Arkansas has ducks moving…. . super comfortable and do not bunch up. Will be great for deer hunting and will tuck easily into knee boots.

Gradient cold weather bib

Everything except the fit is perfect, I ordered an XL as my waders, Hudson bibs and Dakota Hoodie are XL and run big, even the gradient pants are XL, these are hard to zip all the way up and zipper keeps coming down.

Very warm with one flaw

The Gradient Bibs are super warm. Worked great under my waders while duck hunting. My one dislike is the zipper doesn't "lock" at the top. When wearing as a base/mid layer it fits snug so when you bend and move, the zipper wants to unzip. Not a big deal, just a little annoying.

So warm

I bought these because the Sitka waders don’t come with a liner. That’s my only complaint with the waders. That said these bibs are very comfortable and warm. I hunt big open water so for me Under 30 degrees with wind you will still need thermals under them. .

Gradient Bibs

It's crazy that when you start using something new, you wonder how you got by without that product. These bibs are just that. Amazingly warm and comfortable. Great under waders, under my Hudson bibs, and just by themselves. I don't hesitate to talk about these bibs with other hunters, worth the money.

Great wader pants

I’m overall very pleased with these bibs, the fit is true to size on the length and upper body, very comfortable, soft and warm. Only complaint, if I can even call it one, is that it’s a little more snug than my liking around the calves.

Great garment- zipper leaves a bit to be desired

The garment is outstanding. Warm, comfortable and not bulky. The only issue is the zipper. It’s a pretty light weight zipper that seems to wander down during wear. Could use a better zipper that has a better stop in the closed position!

The bibs are very warm but the zipper is trash. The zipper is too light weight and will not stay up. I would have loved to been able to keep the bibs because I really like them, but the zipper is just not the quality that you would expect with Sitka gear

Almost too warm.

My legs always tend to get cold while sitting, so I figured these would help. Now I need to wait for it to get cold. Wearing them in the low 30's is still to warm out. Should fit the bill when temps really drop! Only wish they had a zippered pocket inside to keep things secured.Note on size. According to the chart I should wear a large(6' 225lbs), but the chest area was too snug. Sized up to XL and they fit great. Bring on the cold!
