Does anyone wear bibs or know of some snowboard boot friendly ones? I hate snow in my pants.

Thanks

I've got a pair of Burton Ronin 20k bib pants (rock salt color, size large) for sale, freshly re-waterproofed for a good deal if youre interested. Burton also used to make a pair of AK Hover bib pants that you can find for sale some places.

How are you getting snow in your pants?

Another option is getting pants and a jacket that connect via the jacket's snow skirt. My Special Blend stuff has 4 large snaps for the snow skirt and it has yet to let snow in with falls and slides in all directions.

Stop falling, no snow up your pants, and you save 150 dollars on new pants.

I used to ride in some snow bibs I got from my neighbor (up though last season, actually. I just got a brand new pair of regular snow pants for this year, can't wait to try 'em out). They were never in a million years meant for snowboarding, and they still fit over my boots, so I wouldn't worry about that.

One thing that I will miss about the bibs is that I tend to work when I ride, so a lot of times I don't even wear a shell, just a t-shirt and flannel, and I would wear my bibs over my flannel shirt to keep the butt from getting wet and freezing (not very comfy). I suppose I could go for major geek cred (I'm already there, don't worry!

) and tuck my shirt into my snow pants. So, there's a thought for ya.

I'd say go for it. I think I may miss those suckers a little bit after a while.

Mountain Hardware Exposure II bibs are what I use for deep pow knees. Of course all the cool kids wear the ones with neon suspenders that they keep hanging below their knees.
